While The capability of unique OLED products remains intriguing the adoption of tandem structures is essential to achieving because, unlike LEDs that are a directional point source, high brightness and long lifetime in OLED-SSL products, it the OLED is a diffuse-area light source distinguished by also incurs extra cost in manufacturing due to the increased its spectral quality.
