XEL-1 Overview

Welcome to

the World of OLED

Organic light-emitting diode TV

“XEL-1” realises unparalleled

picture quality

OLED Display

The OLED (organic light-emitting diode)

display contains organic materials that emit

light when an electric current is passed

through them (see Figure 1). As the light

emissions are self-generated, the level can be

controlled by altering the strength of the

current.

Because there is no need for a backlight, an

OLED display is much thinner and lighter than

a conventional LCD panel. It also features

high contrast, high brightness, excellent colour

reproduction and rapid response to moving

pictures.

Picture Quality

Brightness

Enjoy stunning pictures of stars twinkling in a

pitch-black sky or fireworks spectacularly

lighting up the night sky.

With its light-emitting structure, the OLED

display can reproduce virtually any colour by

combining the red, green and blue light

emitted by the organic materials, while black

is shown by no light emission. True black is

created by preventing all light emission

completely, achieving the high contrast that

conventional displays cannot match.

There are broadly two ways to extract the light

emitted by the organic materials (see Figure

2). In the bottom emission method, the light is

extracted from the TFT substrate side. Since

XEL-1 Overview

the drive circuits and wires are present on the

TFT substrate, the area from which light can

be extracted is limited. In top emission, on the

other hand, light is extracted from the opposite

side of the TFT substrate. Because there are

almost no obstacles, the light can be extracted

efficiently. Sony’s OLED displays use the top

emission method, ensuring high brightness and

superb picture quality.

Vividness

Enjoy colourful pictures of gardens full of

spring flowers and gorges bathed in vibrant

autumn colours.

Colours are reproduced using the red, green

and blue organic layers. The film thickness is

selected to match the wavelength for each

colour (see Figure 3).

The light emitted in the organic layer is

reflected back and forth between the anode

and the cathode. Only light whose wavelength

matches the thickness of the film interferes,

increasing in strength (see Figure 4). As the

light of other superfluous wavelengths

decreases, the colour purity of the light passing

through the semitransparent cathode increases.

As a result, each colour is vividly and clearly

reproduced. The colour purity is further

enhanced by passing the light through a colour

filter.

The self-luminous nature of the OLED display

not only generates the full colour spectrum of

bright images, but delivers vivid colour

reproduction capability at nearly all brightness

levels to produce stunning pictures (see Figure

5).

Polarising film used to be the common method

of preventing reflection of ambient light. The

use of such polarising film, however, causes a

reduction in brightness that would

compromise the properties of the OLED

display. The use of colour filters, on the other

hand, prevents reflection of ambient light and

lessens its effects while enabling the image to

be reproduced in its essential colours.

In addition to the high brightness and high

efficiency of the top emission method, by

selecting the film thickness to match the

wavelength of the light and using colour

filters, Sony has succeeded in producing

brighter, more colourful images. This unique

system of Sony’s is called “Super Top

Emission”.

Depth and Spatial Effect

Enjoy dramatic pictures of the soaring

Himalayas stretching into the distance or drift

ice floating out to sea.

The high contrast, high peak brightness and

wide colour reproduction featured by the

OLED display produce realistic images with

the texture of the original. Exquisite shades of

black make the surrounding colours stand out,

creating a sharp image and enabling the OLED

display to reproduce depth and perspective as

well as texture.

Stable Moving Pictures

Enjoy clear pictures of a fast-moving football

match or an action-packed film with little

image lag.

The OLED display’s organic materials emit

light when subjected to an electric current. The

light emission level changes instantly when

the current is altered, and the panel’s

responsiveness is such that the slightest

change in colour tone is performed as quickly

as a colour shift from white to black, ensuring

minimal image lag regardless of the pictures

displayed.

The XEL-1 features unique image processing

technology called “Fine Motion”.

Creating enhanced motion based on the image

content, coupled with the OLED display’s

unique features, “Fine Motion” reproduces

fast-moving scenes with incredible

smoothness and clarity.

XEL-1 Overview

Main Unit

Display

A significant benefit of the self-luminous

OLED display is that, unlike conventional

liquid crystal displays, it does not require a

backlight. The organic layer is so thin that it is

measured in nanometers (nm). An OLED

display is about as thick as the glass panels

aligned on either side of the light-emitting

organic material layer, protecting it.

Arm

The lightness of the panel allows great

flexibility in the position of the arm. The panel

design with its offset arm creates the

impression of floating in mid-air.

Pedestal

The main high-density mounting board and

compact speakers are incorporated into the

pedestal, which is distanced from the panel.

Storing the highly compact components in the

pedestal contributes to the impression of the

panel floating in mid-air.

Rear View

Whether placed against a wall or standing on a

desk, the XEL-1 is stylish and elegant. When

standing alone, its sophisticated design can be

appreciated from all sides. The rear panel has a

mirror-like metal surface, creating a sense of

oneness with the pedestal and arm.

Enjoy the XEL-1’s stunning pictures to your

heart’s content.
