Bendable paper displays all types of color,

 Samsung, LG show flexible LED, paper,

CHIBA, JAPAN -- Samsung Electronics and LG Display have developed prototype flexible displays that can be gently bent while continuing to show images. The displays are the latest in a line of research projects from major display makers that point to growing interest in screens that can be bent, curved or flexed.

When Chalmers researcher Andreas Dahlin and his PhD student Xiong were working on placing conductive polymers on nano structures, they discovered that the combination would be perfectly suited to creating electronic displays as thin as paper.
It all depends on the polymers' ability to control how light is absorbed and reflected. The polymers that cover the whole surface lead the electric signals throughout the full display and create images in high resolution. The material is not yet ready for application, but the basis is there. The team has tested and built a few pixels. These use the same red, green and blue RGB colors that together can create all the colors in standard LED displays. The results so far have been positive, what remains now is to build pixels that cover an area as large as a display.

A year later the results were ready for publication. A material that is less than a micro meter thin, flexible and giving all the colors that a standard LED display does.
