Kateeva Chief Technology Officer and OLED co-inventor Steven Van Slyke was inducted into the 2013 Consumer Electronics (CE) Hall of Fame for his contributions to the advancement of the consumer electronics industry. Van Slyke was one of 15 industry leaders honored last night at the CE Hall of Fame dinner held in Los Angeles. He joins an elite group of inductees that includes the founders of eBay and TiVo, as well as the inventor of the microprocessor, and others.  Van Slyke received a CE Team honor, along with Dr. Ching Tang, a professor of chemical engineering at the University of Rochester. 

They were recognized for their pioneering work at the Eastman Kodak Company that led to the invention of the Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED). Their seminal paper on the topic was published in the journal Applied Physics Letters in 1987. Since then, it has been cited in more than 5000 publications.  Today, OLEDs are used to create displays for mobile devices, TVs and now, wearable computers. They're flexible, paper-thin, ultra-light, and more energy-efficient than LCDs.

"We're so pleased for Steve to receive this distinguished honor. It's richly deserved," said Kateeva Chief Executive Officer Alain Harrus. "What he and Professor Tang hatched at Kodak is now a multi-billion-dollar industry that's only set to grow as OLED technology realizes its full potential. Since 2010, he has applied the same ingenuity at Kateeva, leading our efforts to build an inventive inkjet printing manufacturing equipment solution for mass production of flexible and large-size OLEDs. We're proud to call him our colleague."
