It's coming
Thick Film Dielectric Electroluminescent Technology (TDEL) is an exciting development in the world of high definition. TDEL screens don't make use of any of the typical technologies (vacuums, gasses or liquids) and instead layer their materials directly onto their screen's glass, which helps to provide wider viewing angles and significantly reduce production costs. TDEL HDTV's, in fact, are expected to cost less than $1,000 per set (of 34" model), which puts them up at the front of the pack in terms of HDTV bargains. There is no burn-in factor with TDEL, either. The first TDEL HDTV sets were initially expected to make their way to store shelves in the last quarter of 2007, and HDTV loving fans are closely monitoring the development in this arena of technology.
Leading the TDEL charge is iFire Technology, whose TDEL flat-panel display technology was recognized by China's Ministry of Information Industry as a key area in consumer electronics technologies for research and product development. China promises to put emphasis on TDEL, LCD, plasma, and rear-projection technologies for the next 5-15 years and sees TDEL as being important to the nation's manufacturing strategy. iFire expects to commercialize TDEL technology in cooperation with major HDTV players and has initial plans to target the mid 30" to mid 40" screen size consumer television market. Stay tuned for more on TDEL.
