Electroluminescence is an optical and electrical phenomenon in which a material emits light in response to the passage of an electric current or to a strong electric field.

The typical structure of an OLED electroluminescent device is based on one or more organic semiconductor layers provided between two electrodes.

The organic materials can be very small molecules or polymers.

If we cut an electroluminescent strip vertically we will find first with the negative electrode or cathode, usually metal. Here we find the luminescent material (1) and followed by the positive electrode or anode (conductive material).This conductor would be covered with a transparent protective layer (2).The combination of electrons and holes in a material, typically a semiconductor, generates the release of the electrons energy as photons. These photons are light (3) projected and visible.

Its most important technical features are:

• They can illuminate large surfaces.
• Uniform illumination.
• Very low power consumption.
• No radiation emission.
• Very small sizes and/or flat.
• Flexible.
• Indoors and outdoors working.
• No vibration.
• There are a lot of colours.

Its most common applications are:

• Lighting panels of vehicles or aircraft.
• Keyboard panels or electronic panels.
• Displays.
• Signs and posters or billboards.
• Decoration.
• Road signs and vests.

VDC would be the abbreviation for Volt Direct Current which translated would volts direct current. The idea of ??this type is unidirectional current to the load. Direct current is normally produced by batteries, thermocouples, solar cells and a dynamo electric machine type. The direct current can flow in conductors such as wires, but may also flow through semiconductors, insulators ...

The converters or inverters are used to convert the current of 12 or 24 volts (dc) battery, 220 volt current (AC). To choose an investor will take into account the rated power and the peak power of the inverter. The rated power is the power that can provide the investor in normal use and operation. While the peak power is that the investor may proporcionar for a short period of time. Investors modified wave (photo number 1) are used for virtually all types of devices even in some high-tech or inductive loads may not function properly because the wave is generated electronically. On the other hand, pure sine wave inverters (photo number 2) generate the same wavelength as that received at home. The wave modifiesIt gives but can be used with all types of devices always respecting the power that is able to provide the model we've purchased.
