A Little Help from Our Friends in the Right
Places?
• European Union – with have phased out incandescent bulbs by 2012,
with halogens gone by 2016. U.K., Ireland and Finland have faster
timetable
• Australia – most sales of incandescent bulbs banned in 2010
• Canada -- Plans to ban incandescent bulbs in 2012
• U.S. Federal government -- Lighting must be 25-30 percent more
efficient than today’s bulbs beginning in 2012. More draconian
requirements expected for 2020. California will phase out all
incandescent bulbs by 2018
• India -- No complete ban but will replace 400 million incandescent bulbs
with CFLs by 2012

The Downside of Regulation: Market Distortions
• Early market maturity. Government regulations accelerate the
market opportunity, but also market maturity and saturation. This
must be taken into consideration in corporate strategies. Even on
optimistic scenarios, saturation of general lighting market begins to
impact the market by 2014.
• Perverse economics. California utilities have chosen to meet
regulatory mandates by heavily subsidizing CFLs to a point where
they are almost as inexpensive as incandescent lighting. So a lot of
CFL bulbs are being bought in California and sold in other states.

Business Challenges for OLED Lighting
• Immature technology with no settled manufacturing approach or
customer awareness. Unusual form factor makes comparisons difficult
• OLEDs significantly lag the competition. Past improvements have been
swift. But how far can we go? Efficacies above 100 lm/W?
• Costs per kilolumen are now so high as to rule out useful comparisons on
a total cost of ownership basis
• LEDs can directly capitalize on standard semiconductor industry
processes. Can printing R2R processes deliver lower costs?
• Light output (i.e., luminance) needs to be higher to achieve significant
market penetration in general lighting and backlighting sectors
• No clear product strategy to make OLED lighting into plug and play
replacement for conventional lighting

OLED Lighting and the Economy
• Positive: Energy prices. Energy prices rising again and are likely to
continue to rise in real terms as the Indian and Chinese economies
grow.
• Negative: Lack of investment money. Large lighting/electronics firms
are investing in OLED lighting, but better times might have seen more
VCs. Future inflationary conditions could hurt investment once again.
• Negative: Slump in new construction. The construction market in the
U.S. and Europe is improving only slowly at best. Boom in China is
ending. Lighting expenditures are strongly tied to construction activity

- 12. Business Cases for Flexible OLED Lighting Products
Product Business Case
Residential lighting Flexibility may play the role of more effectively creating new aesthetics or better creating
the mood lighting effect. This is an area waiting to be explored by lighting and interior
designers.
Large lighting panels OLED lighting is uniquely capable of providing large lighting panels that could cover an
entire wall or ceiling. As the size of OLED panels increase they will have to be mounted on
surfaces that are not entirely flat which will provide good reasons for OLED lighting panels
to be flexible or conformal. This need would be enhanced if OLEDs were used on outdoor
surfaces, but this is also not yet possible
Integrated lighting Incorporating lighting into both curtains and clothing is not well developed. Such products
have used collections of ILED lights stitched to fabric. OLEDs would be a good substitute.
Business cases for OLED lighting for fabrics can be based on aesthetics and fashion, but
there will also be practical advantages such as visibility of people who work or travel in
dark areas.
Extended light strips These can be used to provide low levels of light to guide people in darkened area such as
movie houses. They currently exist and use small fluorescent lights or ILEDs. OLEDs
might make an attractive replacement for these technologies.
Brand enhancement Not a road much travelled, but we believe that if costs for OLED lighting are reduced
and packaging sufficiently (perhaps using printing), it could be added to smart packaging either for brand
products enhancement or more practical applications such as indicating package tampering or (for
pharma packaging) amounts of pills used.

Other OLED Lighting Markets
• “Designer kits.” Osram, Philips and Lumiotec currently offer. Attempt to
create market. Not a product in itself
• Signage. Mainly EL replacement for emergency lights, etc. Some products
available already. OLEDs not the best choice for outdoor signage
• Backlights. Mainly alternative for simple backlights for watches,
segmented displays, etc. Replacement of backlighting for AM LCD displays
seems unlikely, although widely talked about at one point
• Packaging, toys and novelties. Includes everything from high-value
(pharmaceutical or perfume) packaging to Christmas ornaments
• Outdoor lighting and signage. Main challenge is encapsulation

Key Forecast/Scenario Assumptions
• Regulation. Regulations phasing out incandescent bulbs will open up
markets for OLED and LED penetration. Note: There are still some
uncertainties about how fast regulations will actually be implemented
• Addressable markets. Lighting unit shipments will decline as SSL
deployment raises average lifetimes go up. So OLED lighting business
cases must be built around a declining addressable market.
• Pricing. Most uncertain part of the forecast is pricing. Even the basis for
OLED lighting pricing is uncertain. It is hard to compare with conventional
and ILEDs, because of panel format. $ per square is not appropriate to
other kinds of lights.

Pricing Issues and Strategies
• OLED lighting is further behind other kinds of lighting in terms of pricing
than any other parameter.
• Fluorescent lights are just $2-4 per kilolumen and LEDs are about $130 per
kilolumen. But OLEDs are around $300 per kilolumen (DOE numbers)
• Major improvement expected and DOE says $8-9 for OLEDs by 2015. This
assumes a lot about processes, materials and economies of scale, but
would make OLEDs competitive for premium general lighting products
• In NanoMarkets’ forecasts we assume that something like the DOE pricing
scenario can be achieved. Some observers believe that OLEDs will be able
to do better than this

OLED Lighting Scenario I: The Worst That Can Happen
• The actual worst that could happen would be that OLED lighting never
proves viable and disappears as a research program in a few years.
• But OLEDs seem to be superior to EL lighting in many applications and also
seem suited to luxury lighting; they are getting the attention of designers
• Luxury lighting can never be a big market. A few thousand units at
$1,000+ per luminaire and over, puts market in the tens of millions of
dollars once developed.
• EL lighting is a slow-growing market of around $200-300 million. If OLED
lighting gets 70% share it would generate up to $210 million; a lot more
than luxury lights
• In this scenario OLED lighting industry resembles the EL lighting industry
today

OLED Lighting Scenario II: Mood Lighting --Mass Market
• Mood lighting is the first possible mass for OLED lighting. It’s performance
fits market needs and addressable markets are large; potentially many
millions of units
• The “proof” is that the luminance of OLED lighting is already close to being
suitable for mood lighting and the panel format is also a fit. Flexibility
would also be helpful, but not essential.
• Addressable markets would expand rapidly as price declines. But there
are relatively price insensitive markets (transport, prestige buildings, etc.)
that are ready for it now.
• Mood lighting markets could reach several hundred million dollars, making
OLED lighting a significant opportunity for major lighting, electronics and
home products stores.

OLED Lighting Scenario III: Breaking Into General Lighting
• LEDs have been made to fit in with existing formats. Consider LED “bulbs” and
“tubes.” This will be hard – but not impossible – for OLEDs. OLED lighting is
intrinsically panel-like
• Breakthrough will come if OLEDs can be made into panels that can replace
fluorescent panels. This probably won’t happen until 2015, when these panels
are large enough (maybe 1,600 m²) and bright enough (10,000 lm/m²) to do
the job
• Replacing CFLs in residential lighting will require a radical acceptance of total
cost of ownership by residential consumers. This will not be easy to achieve,
because it is unclear how consumers discount for future cost savings. But light
quality might be a compelling advantage for OLED lighting
• Major firms including GE and Philips see mass markets emerging around 2015

The Devils Advocate: How Seriously Should You Take
These Forecasts?
• Assumes good technological progress on OLEDs over next few years, along
with success of early manufacturing plants. Technological progress has
been impressive so far, but we can’t be sure it will continue and OLEDs still
lag behind LEDs and CFLs
• Assumes good customer acceptance. This is far from proven as yet.
Indeed, most potential customers don’t know that OLED lighting exists or
even, in many cases, that incandescent lighting is being phased out
• Ramp up to 2014-2015 mass market take off, could be too optimistic. This
could make the years 2013-2015 much lower revenues than we show
here. On the other hand, our penetration assumptions are quite modest,
so eventual revenues could be significantly larger. The next iteration of the
NanoMarkets OLED lighting forecast will take a more granular look at the
likely market evolution

Some Conclusions
• The market opportunity for OLEDs is strongly contingent on regulations
phasing out incandescent bulbs. But this will also lead to early saturation of
the market
• OLED lighting does not seem likely to compete with CFLs and LEDs on
conventional parameters, except color quality in the foreseeable future.
Must therefore compete on unique features: panel format, flexibility,
tunability and transparency
• Significant manufacturing, marketing and materials challenges ahead.
Forecasts rely on economies of scale, R2R manufacturing successes,
materials price declines and customer acceptance
• At the very least, OLEDs should be able to capture EL alternative market,
plus luxury lighting market. Mood lighting market seems likely too. To meet
the expectations of large players, OLEDs need to create cost effective panel
lighting
