Samsung Display’s recent blog post states that transparent OLEDs are made up of clear materials and have transmissive space for lights to pass through the pixels, making them look transparent. This tech could be used in applications where users need to see through the other side of a screen.

Transparent OLED displays are transparent except for the areas that represent colors. This technology is achieved by using optically transparent materials (such as TFT (Thin Film Transistor)) on the power cord and allowing the display to display objects behind (such as transparent glass).

Unlike LCDs, self-luminous OLED displays emit light without a backlight unit and do not need to rely on ambient lighting. In addition, it does not require a polarizer, an opaque plastic sheet that is usually attached to the display to prevent the panel from reflecting external light, so it has a higher transmittance than LCD.
