These are organic compounds that will emit a color light if electricity is allowed to flow through them. These OLED\u2019s are used in the digital display of many technologies, like phones, televisions, and handheld gaming consoles. Compared to LCD, they are better in many ways. OLED\u2019s doing consume nearly as much power as a LCD, making the battery efficiently of them longer. The refreshing rate for OLED\u2019s is much faster allowing the OLED\u2019s to respond faster. Even though process of making OLED\u2019s is more expensive than producing LCD\u2019s, OLED\u2019s can be made much cheaper, for instance if OLED screen printing becomes used for mass production. Finally, the brightness and clarity of OLED\u2019s are much higher compared to LCD\u2019s. They don\u2019t need to have glass to be built with it, which would absorb some of the light. OLED\u2019s are also multi-layered, which makes the picture clearer. In addition to being better, they are friendlier on the environment. First off, they do use as much electricity as the other two. This makes them cheaper than the other two to use. As well, less energy is needed to power them, which affects the overall energy output of power plants, lowering their pollution.\u00a0 Additionally, when compared to LCD, is that LCD lights have mercury. Mercury is toxic to both the environment and to people, which is one of the negative effects of them. OLED\u2019s do not use mercury, which allows them to be safer, as well as cheaper in terms of recycling cost. With LED\u2019s, OLED\u2019s are both built with the same materials. However, OLED\u2019s need fewer materials to build the same color scheme. This allows OLED\u2019s to be made with fewer materials, making less waste that might have to recycle later. Finally, OLED\u2019s can be used longer compared to the other two. This allows as well less waste to be recycled, because there is less that you would have to recycle.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/thumb\/2\/28\/CyOLED.jpg\/220px-CyOLED.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>References<\/p>\n<p>Freudenrich, Craig. &#8220;How OLEDs Work.&#8221;\u00a0<em>HowStuffWorks<\/em>.
