A group of researchers at Samsung Electronics and board members of LG Display have been indicted on charges of leaking and taking key technology needed to make cutting-edge flat screen displays.
The Suwon District Prosecutors' Office says, six former and current researchers at Samsung Electronics, were indicted for leaking key technology related to the production of larger organic light-emitting diode displays to five executives at LG Display.
The information was sent via e-mails on seven separate occasions.
According to prosecutors, a 45 year-old former researcher identified by his surname Cho, who left Samsung for personal reasons, plotted the leak in an attempt to join LG Display.
