The OLED panels for IT applications with ten inches or more required red, green, and blue pixels to be firmly aligned to the panel, making the use of dry etcher ideal for their production. The Wonik IPS, ICD, and Tokyo Electron all provided their dry etcher with Samsung Display’s Gen 6 OLED panels.

Samsung Display expects its Samsung and Apple customers to increase their orders with advanced IT OLED panels. The suppliers who make the dry etcher required for Gen 8.5 panels first are likely to win a large number of orders.

The Wonik IPS and ICD technology have evolved to resemble those of Tokyo Electron, says someone familiar with the matter. And, the Dai Nippon Printing has also begun the development of the beautiful metal masks (FMM) used on Gen 8.5 OLED panels in the second quarter in preparation for transfer to Samsung Display.

Samsung Display is likely to start rolling out the new Gen 8.5 OLED line sometime next year. The order of Apple’s OLED panel for those who plan to use it for the launch of its iPads in 2022 and 2023 does not exist, but Cupertino plans to launch OLED notes later, so Samsung Display prepares for this.

Samsung’s mobile business also plans to ship more tablets and stationery with OLED panels. The company plans to ship up to six million OLED panels for tablets and stationery this year.
