LG Display, Samsung Display to showcase next-generation OLED technologies at IMID
LG Display and Samsung Display are set to showcase their latest OLED technologies at the International Meeting on Information Display (IMID) 2026 in Busan. The three-day event, which begins on Thursday at BEXCO, will highlight advances in display quality, manufacturing efficiency, and design flexibility. LG Display will unveil FLiPP, or FMM-Less innovative Pixel Patterning, an OLED manufacturing technology that eliminates the need for conventional fine metal masks (FMMs).
This new technology, developed after a year of research and development, uses proprietary technology to pattern red, green, and blue (RGB) OLED pixels without metal masks. The improvements attributed to FLiPP include a 1.6 times increase in brightness, a 2.4 times extension of panel lifespan, and a 13 percent reduction in power consumption compared to panels produced using FMMs.
The advancements are a result of a roughly 55 percent increase in the aperture ratio, or the proportion of the display area occupied by RGB pixels.
