Among the projects in which Japan is set to invest in the US at the request of the Trump administration is JDI’s investment in an OLED factory. In collaboration with the US OLED lighting manufacturer OLEDWORKS, JDI will hold a meeting on the 25th of this month in New York State to discuss investment in the eLeap factory.
The estimated initial investment is 200 billion yen, with the total investment amounting to 2 trillion yen. It is being considered that Mr Tsujimura, who was in charge of the OLED lighting business at Epson and served as chairman of SID, will take on the role of JDI’s US representative. Applied Materials is expected to supply the evaporatㅐion equipment.
eLeap technology is similar to ViP, which Visionox has recently been promoting for commercialisation; it manufactures OLED pixels using a photolithography process instead of an FMM.
