Abstract

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been utilized successfully for various applications such as microdisplays in cell-phones and digital cameras. However, the application of OLEDs for large area signage displays has not yet been established. This paper presents novel design techniques for implementing OLEDs as light sources for signage application. The designs are examined on the basis of signage uniformity, cost and manufacturing complexity. Advantages and limitations of each design are described. It is determined that a trade-off is required to choose a design for implementation. After evaluation and comparison of the designs, the most optimal design is chosen and implemented. Measurement results with the optimal design are described.
