Organic light-emitting diodes, or OLEDs are similar to LEDs in that they’re comprised of semiconductor material sandwiched between two electrodes.

But while LEDs use a blue semiconductor diode combined with yellow phosphor to produce light, OLEDs combine thin layers of red, green, and blue film to emit a softer white light.

A new form of Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLED) is utilized with low power batteries to provide light with about an eight times less than the power requirements of incandescent lamps.  The batteries can be recharged by small portable solar panels in a few hours, making the lighting technology extremely energy efficient as well as fully portable.
