You are thinking of OLEDs, which is a different technology.

As far as I know, there is not a single OLED-based computer monitor
on the market.

Smaller full-color, high-resolution OLED screens in numbers are now
making their appearance in smartphones, e.g. the Samsung Omnia II.
I think the largest OLED screen you can buy is still Sony's XEL-1
bedside television with it's 11-inch display, although at 2500 USD
that is more of a technology demonstration.  Larger OLED TVs are
regularly shown off at trade shows such as IFA, but these are
prototypes that aren't in production.
