New 27″ and 45″ Woled monitors get micro lenses to increase brightness

LG Display’s microlens implementation will also be an issue for upcoming OLED monitors. This concerns the upcoming 45″ and 27″ OLED monitors based on Woled panels from the Korean manufacturer. The addition of a micro-lens array should increase brightness.

LG Display has officially confirmed this information questions from the FlatpanelsHD website. This means that not only a number of OLED televisions are equipped with a micro-lens array or MLA. The addition of MLA mainly leads to higher clarity. Televisions equipped with the many small lenses, such as the Panasonic MZ2000, could achieve up to 2100cd/m², although the MLA panels intended for monitors would be stuck at 1000cd/m² on a small window and 150cd/m² on a completely white screen.

The 27″ and 45″ OLED panels from LG Display will appear this year in monitors from LG, Corsair, Asus and Acer, among others. Examples are the Asus PG27AQDM and the LG UltraGear 27GR95QE. The former has a special heatsink that should contribute to lower temperatures and a longer lifespan of the panel. According to LG Display, the ultimate goal is for all products to be equipped with MLA.

Mla is an addition to the OLED EX panels that LG Display introduced last year. An extra layer is added to those panels that counteracts the internal scattering of light within the substrate of the panel and a larger portion of the light is actually radiated towards the viewer. This means more light output for the same electrical input and, according to the manufacturer, also better viewing angles.
