چکیده
We propose and demonstrate weak-microcavity organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays with improved light-extraction and viewing-angle characteristics. A single pair of low- and high-index layers is inserted between indium tin oxide (ITO) and a glass substrate. The electroluminescent (EL) efficiencies of discrete red, green, and blue weak-microcavity OLEDs are enhanced by 56%, 107%, and 26%, respectively, with improved color purity. Moreover, full-color passive-matrix bottom-emitting OLED displays are fabricated by employing low-index layers of two thicknesses. As a display, the EL efficiency of white color was 27% higher than that of a conventional OLED display.

High efficiency green phosphorescent top-emitting organic light-emitting diode with ultrathin non-doped emissive layer
Ultrathin non-doped emissive layer (EML) has been employed in green phosphorescent top-emitting organic light-emitting diodes (TOLEDs) to take full advantages of the cavity standing wave condition in a microcavity structure. Much higher out-coupling efficiency has been observed compared to conventional doped EML with relatively wide emission zone. A further investigation on dual ultrathin non-d...
متن کاملThin-film Encapsulation of Organic Light-Emitting Diodes Using Single and Multilayer Structures of MgF2, YF3 and ZnS
In this research, the lifetime of green organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) is studied using four passivation layers. To encapsulate the OLEDs, MgF2, YF3, composed of alternating MgF2/ZnS and YF3/ZnS layers were grown by thermal vacuum deposition. Measurements show that the device lifetime is significantly improved by using YF3 and ZnS as passivation layers. However, diodes encapsulated by Mg...

We have significantly improved the emission efficiency in an organic light emitting diode (OLEDs) based on tris(phenyl pyridine)iridium [Ir(ppy)3]. Using a semitransparent Ag with surface modification as anode to replace conventional ITO, excellent light outcoupling and hole injection properties have been realized. The Ag based OLED exhibits a maximum current efficiency of 81 cd/A and power eff...
متن کاملTexturing the cathode of white organic light-emitting diodes with a lattice of nanoscale scatterers for enhanced light out-coupling
The external quantum efficiency of white organic light-emitting diodes is often limited by light out-coupling losses due to surface plasmons. We demonstrate how texturing of the metal-cathode surface using a two-dimensionally periodic lattice of nanoscale scatterers with limited disorder can be used to reduce plasmonic losses while simultaneously enhancing both the light out-coupling and the sp...

In this paper, we review the emission characteristics from organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and organic molecular thin films with planar and corrugated structures. In a planar thin film structure, light emission from OLEDs was strongly influenced by the interference effect. With suitable design of microcavity structure and layer thicknesses adjustment, optical characteristics can be engine...
