The State of Delaware has bust
out a grant of $920,000 for
DuPont's obsessed project to
bring OLED TVs to the masses.
It's building a facility at the Stine-
Haskell Research Center in
Newark with the chemicals-giant
stumping $30 million out of its
own back pocket. The new unit
will employ 35 people to
investigate the possibility of
producing Organic Light Emitting
Diodes for use in televisions for a
fraction of the current cost. In
comparison, the OLED TVs we
saw at CES could retail for as
much as $10,000, enough to
make sure you don't ask
Grandma for one next Christmas.
The line will be used to test the
" spray printing" methods that
can print a 50-inch TV in under
two minutes we saw in 2010.
DuPont's obliged to keep the
facility open for five years, or it'll
expect angry civil servants to
storm the building looking for a
million dollars worth of
stationery in return.
