Austin Technologies made sheets of flexible electroluminescent materials in the 90's even. (I've got a blinking cycling safety belt for night riding based on it.) After a few years it had developed some dark blotches... The material wasn't transparent though.
The technology probably isn't entirely new, just an improvement to the point where a lot more things can be done with it. Remember, Tesla had flouresent lighting a few decades before it began manufacture in 1939 or so.
