Canon is getting deeper in OLED manufacturing. An excerpt from Reuters
TOKYO, Nov 13 (Reuters) – Canon Inc (7751.T: Quote, Profile, Research) said it aims to take a majority stake in Tokki Corp (9813.Q: Quote, Profile, Research), a supplier of flat panel-making equipment, for $69 million or more to speed development of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) panels.

Canon has been developing OLED panels in a bid to replace liquid crystal display (LCD) panels, which it now procures from outside suppliers for digital camera, camcorder and printer displays.

Canon said it may offer small-sized flat TVs using OLED displays in the future.

For the large-sized TV market, Canon has been developing another type of flat panel TVs based on surface-conduction electron-emitter display (SED) technology.
