2. Light Emitting Polymers
A light emitting polymer is an electro-luminescent plastic. The molecules of this plastic emit light when an electric field is applied.
Polymer based light-emitting diodes (LED) were discovered in 1990.
Cambridge Display Technology has the core patents for the Technology of LEP.

3. Light Emitting Polymers
Poly p-phenylenevinylene
LEP can be used in Laptop screens, cell phones, TV screens, calculators, digital cameras, and in a future almost everything.

4. Light Emitting Polymers
Light Emitting Polymers have many advantages.
Enable more energy efficiency
They are thin which will enable then to be placed into any flat surface.
There will be no limitations in size
Light weight
Can be seen from any angle without the loss of information
Extraordinary resolution which will provide high quality imaging.
Flexibility
