An organic light emitting diode (OLED) is a light-emitting diode (LED) in which the emissive electroluminescent layer is a film of organic compounds which emit light in response to an electric current. This layer of organic semiconductor material is situated between two electrodes. Generally, at least one of these electrodes is transparent.

Samsung announced that it would introduce a

smartphone with a curved display this month. New concept that allows smartphone screens to bend or fold to create various designs. The flexible screen would also be a significantly thinner display, which would allow for more space in traditional smartphones to add in extra memory and other components.
