OLED, which is used in premium products for smartphones and TVs, is expanding its market to the fields of laptop computers and monitors.
However, smartphones have continued to evolve, and the era of foldable phones has arrived. Furthermore, by adopting UPC (under display camera) technology, a full screen display with no holes for the camera was born. In order to make a foldable OLED or a full screen display, it is necessary to improve the characteristics of various components and materials that make up the OLED and to deform the structure of the OLED panel itself.
Various new technologies have been introduced in large-size OLED for TV. Structural deformations and high-performance light-emitting materials are used to make rollable displays and high-brightness TVs.
Nevertheless, OLEDs continue to evolve to be human-friendly and convenient.
The “Latest Technology Development Trends for OLED and QD-LED” report published this time contains the latest technology trends that show the current state of evolving OLED and the future evolution direction.
In addition, the latest technological trends related to QD-LED, which is called next-generation display technology following OLED, are also included in this report. If the LED itself emits light, it will be a self-luminous device with a wide color gamut, and since the solution process is possible, the manufacturing cost can be reduced, so expectations are rising as a next-generation device.

2026 Automotive Display: Technology, Supply Chain & Market Outlook
₩0September 17, 2026
PDF(206P)UBI Research’s newly published report, 2026 Automotive Display: Technology, Supply Chain & Market Outlook, provides an integrated analysis of the rapidly evolving automotive display industry, examining technologies, application areas, and supply chain changes driven by the expansion of software-defined vehicles (SDVs) and smart cockpits.
The automotive display market is expected to grow in overall shipments while shifting toward a higher proportion of high-value-added displays. Although LCD shipments are projected to decline slightly through 2030, Mini LED shipments are forecast to increase approximately 2.9-fold, from 8.78 million units in 2026 to 25.06 million units in 2030. OLED shipments are also expected to more than double over the same period, rising from 6.15 million to 12.99 million units. As a result, market competition is expected to shift from shipment volume expansion toward high-value-added technologies offering superior image quality, higher brightness, and larger screen sizes.
The report examines how automotive displays are expanding beyond information displays centered on clusters and center information displays (CIDs) into passenger displays, rear-seat entertainment (RSE), camera monitoring systems (CMS), head-up displays (HUD), and augmented reality head-up displays (AR-HUD). It explores the growing number, screen area, and performance requirements of displays resulting from the transition to SDVs and smart cockpits. The report also analyzes rising AR-HUD demand driven by advances in ADAS, together with the shift toward multiscreen and content-centered experiences resulting from the expansion of passenger HMI. In addition, it outlines how emerging form factors—including Shy Tech, transparent displays, and transformable displays—are becoming key elements in differentiating user experiences and vehicle interiors.
The scope of competition is also expanding from panels to modules and systems. The conventional structure, in which panel suppliers provide displays and Tier 1 suppliers handle system integration, is evolving toward joint design involving panel makers and Tier 1 suppliers from the early stages of development. The supply scope is also progressing from FOG to FIDM and FIDM Plus. As the integration of touch solutions, cover glass, PCBAs, sensors, and other components increases, Tier 1 suppliers are creating greater value through cockpit computing, HMI software, and system integration. The report analyzes these changes in the supply structure and the evolving roles of OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and panel makers.
It also compares the technological characteristics of TFT-LCD, Mini LED, OLED, and Micro LED with the performance requirements of automotive applications. In addition, it reviews the automotive display strategies and market outlooks of major panel manufacturers, including AUO, BOE, LG Display, Samsung Display, TCL CSOT, Tianma, and Visionox.
Rather than simply listing individual technologies and market data, the report presents an integrated analysis that connects the growth drivers of the automotive display market with product applications, technology selection, modularization, supply chain restructuring, and the business strategies of major companies. It enables readers to identify where the competitive landscape is shifting and where new sources of added value and business opportunities are emerging. The report also provides practical criteria to support market entry, product development, customer strategies, and supply chain planning for companies involved in panels, materials, components, equipment, and automotive electronics -

QD Materials: Display Technologies and Industry Analysis
₩0September 10, 2026
PDF(151P)“QD Materials: Display Technologies and Industry Analysis” covers the full range of applications, from the properties and synthesis of QD materials through to LCD backlights, QD-OLED, emissive QD-LED and micro LED for XR, and presents an in-depth view of shifts in the global material supply chain together with a market forecast to 2030.
The report is organized into six chapters, beginning with the classification of QD materials and moving through industry trends and the market forecast, color conversion materials, emissive devices, micro LED for XR, and high-resolution patterning.
On the market outlook, the shipment area of QD-applied LCD panels (QDEF/Plate) is analyzed to expand from 42.75 million m² in 2025 to 63.22 million m² in 2030. The core driver of this growth is wider adoption of Mini-LED TV, for which the QD material shipment area rises from 16.28 million m² to 27.68 million m² over the same period. QD material revenue is likewise expected to grow from about 128 million dollars in 2025 to about 190 million dollars in 2030. For QD-OLED, the report identifies the shift of the growth axis from TV to monitors. Monitor panel revenue expands from about 980 million dollars in 2025 to about 4,635 million dollars in 2030, while TV panel revenue declines from about 699 million dollars to 663 million dollars, and the report analyzes the corresponding 8.5G capacity roadmap together with the effect of ink recycling on QDCC material revenue.
On color conversion materials, the report compares which applications favor QD, KSF phosphor and perovskite for red conversion, and sets out countermeasures for the issues common to in-pixel color conversion: leakage of unabsorbed blue light, the shift of the emission peak caused by reabsorption, and the loss of contrast under ambient light. For emissive QD-LED, it compares the size, resolution, color gamut, efficiency and lifetime of prototypes from BOE, Sharp, Visionox and TCL, and addresses both the split in pixel formation between inkjet and PR-free direct photolithography and the real bottleneck of blue material lifetime.
In the XR and micro LED field, the report examines the sharp efficiency loss of AlGaInP red LED as chip size falls below 10 μm and the blue InGaN plus QD color conversion approach that has emerged as the answer. It presents the competing routes to full color — individual RGB transfer, monolithic RGB integration, wavelength-tunable pixels (DPT) and three-panel optical combining — and organizes patterning technologies by applicable range, from the 300 ppi limit of inkjet and the EHD printing that goes beyond it, to QDPR photolithography aimed above 2,000 ppi, transfer methods reported up to 2,460 ppi, and FMM deposition for perovskite. It also systematically compiles the key specifications of the QD inkjet printing process and the associated material conditions (QD composition, particle size, solvent selection, synthesis conditions and so on), providing a practical roadmap for realizing high-definition displays.
This report offers value as a comprehensive analysis that connects material properties, process technology, supply chain and market outlook organically, rather than centering on market figures alone. Grounded in the latest disclosures including SID 2026, it is expected to provide a substantive basis for strategy among decision makers across the industry, including display manufacturers, material and component companies, investment institutions and policy bodies.
