OLED Technology Paves the Path for Enhanced Long-Distance Wireless Communication

Researchers from the University of St Andrews and the University of Cambridge have achieved remarkable advancements in visible light communication (VLC) using organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Their study, published in Advanced Photonics, reveals that they’ve engineered OLEDs capable of transmitting data at speeds of up to 4.0 gigabits per second over 2 meters and 2.9 Gbps over 10 meters—setting new records for OLED-based systems. The breakthrough stems from the use of the stable organic compound dinaphthylperylene (DNP), which enhances light emission while maintaining longevity. This technology could revolutionize wireless communication across various applications, including homes, offices, and wearables, as OLEDs combine high bandwidth with reduced interference and integration with existing lighting systems.
