ROCHESTER, N.Y., Oct. 23 -- Eastman Kodak Co. announced that Sumitomo Corp. will distribute its organic light emitting diode (OLED) materials in Japan. As part of the agreement, Kodak's Display Products business unit will work with Sumitomo to supply OLED materials to licensee customers and will collaborate on other research and development efforts in Japan. Displays based on organic light-emitting diode offer bright, full-motion images that are viewable from a very wide angle. The displays comprise organic thin-film materials that emit light when stimulated by an electric charge.
