In our companion articles, we have covered several TV display technologies including LED\/LCD<\/a>, QLED<\/a>, NanoCell<\/a>, Mini-LED<\/a>, OLED<\/a>, and QD-OLED<\/a>. However, that isn’t the end of the story. MicroLED has the potential to offer a superior large screen viewing experience — at a very high cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note<\/strong>: MicroLED is not the same<\/strong> as Micro RGB LED or RGB Mini-LED. Here’s why.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n

What MicroLED Is<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

MicroLED is a technology that utilizes microscopic-sized LEDs for displaying images. Each MicroLED pixel contains three subpixels that natively emit red, green, and blue light. The pixels also contain the image information. Each microLED pixel can be brightened, dimmed, or turned on and off. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conceptually, MicroLED technology is similar to OLED TV technology<\/a>. However, instead of using organic materials to construct the pixels which are somewhat unstable, MicroLED pixels are inorganic with no stability issues such as color decay over time, screen “burn-in” when static images are displayed for a long time period, or temperature sensitivity that prevents high-brightness display.  <\/p>\n\n\n
