The CEO of Applied Materials,Gary Dickerson, also implied the order was not going to be the first. "This is going to be sustainable growth, and " he said to Bloomberg. "We all know who is the leader in terms of mobile products." Although the order isn't due until drop 2017,Dickerson suggested other mobile phone producers would follow Apple's lead.
OLED screens are exciting for many reasons. Not only are the screens more energy efficient, but they are also thinner because they require no backlights.
