LTPS prices facing enormous challenges to the new focus of market investments

2014 LTPS TFT LCD panel shipments into the area and only 56% of capacity, which means that many of the existing production LTPS panel makers are still improving efficiency, improve product yield and LTPS panel space quality stability. LTPS panel will present five future development trends: First 2017 LTPS TFT LCD production capacity will reach 12.2 million square meters, a substantial increase of 66% compared to 2014; Second LTPS TFT LCD capacity utilization is generally 75% to 85%; Third, LTPS TFT LCD demand from 2014′s 3.1 million square meters in 2017 to grow to 6.4 million square meters; Fourth LTPS panel area shipments in 2014 accounted for only the actual input capacity of 56%, in 2015 this proportion increased to 60% , 2016 and 2017 will remain at 62%, which indicates that the area of ​​conversion LTPS panel production capacity and shipments are still gaps between; Fifth LTPS LCD panel will continue to face high-resolution amorphous silicon, Oxide and AMOLED panels competition.

With panel makers, especially in mainland China panel makers to actively invest LTPS TFT LCD (low-temperature polysilicon thin film transistor liquid crystal display panel) new plant to supply the smart phone panels, many people have begun to worry LTPS TFT LCD will supply surplus, thus affecting smartphone panel the whole supply chain. For some new vendors, LTPS panel plant operational efficiency and yield is the need to solve a big problem.

NPD DisplaySearch consider the following points will pose a threat to the market for LTPS TFT LCD panel demand:

First, amorphous silicon (a-Si) TFT LCD technology and technology continues to challenge the limits, and continue to make breakthroughs. For example, currently has a-Si TFT LCD mass production 300PPI (such as 4.7 inches 1280 × 720) smartphones panel. Many panel makers are actively developing amorphous silicon (a-Si) TFT LCD technology to produce 5.0 inches Full HD (1920 × 1080) of the panel. A few years ago on a-Si (amorphous silicon) can not do 300PPI more products this argument has been broken by advances in technology. Panel makers are still constantly challenging technical limitations of a-Si. Long time compared with the LTPS technology, a-Si is undoubtedly the most cost-effective option.

Second, the oxide (Oxide), also known as indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO), is also actively expanding in the smart phone market share share. Which Xiapuyou is aggressively expanding the use of Oxide technology in smart handheld devices, and with greater capacity 8th generation panel production line.

Third, actively promote the Samsung AMOLED display screen technology, the color is stronger than LCD. Samsung AMOLED display overcapacity enormous pressure, and therefore are actively looking for more external customers to consume capacity. Generally, if the screen size and resolution of the same panel of smart phones, AMOLED LCD panels and more than 10% to 15% premium. But Samsung display are more flexible to adjust its AMOLED panel premium, especially in the Chinese market, hoping to expand the AMOLED panel shipments reached purposes.

Fourth, the world’s largest user of LTPS panel is Apple iPhone. Except in special LTPS specifications Apple used, the remaining majority of LTPS TFT LCD panel is using a smart phone manufacturers in mainland China. Chinese mainland smart phone manufacturers adopt a “high standard, low price” business strategy, leading panel makers had to endure tremendous downward pressure on prices. Downward pressure on prices may be greater LTPS panel aspect, because it’s the average price is higher than the a-Si TFT LCD panel.
