Abstract:
The present invention relates to efficient organic light emitting devices (OLEDs). More specifically, the present invention relates to white-emitting OLEDs, or WOLEDs. The devices of the present invention employ two emitters in a single emissive region to sufficiently cover the visible spectrum. White emission is achieved from two emitters in a single emissive region through the formation of an aggregate by one of the emissive centers. This allows the construction of simple, bright and efficient WOLEDs that exhibit a high color rendering index.
Abstract:
A multicolor organic light emitting display device employs angle-walled blue, green and red emitting mesas, with optional metal reflectors on the angled walls, in a plurality of pixels. The angle-walled mesas, which resemble truncated pyramids, direct light out of the mesa by reflection from the mesa side walls or by mirror reflection. The device of the present invention reduces waveguiding, thus simultaneously increasing both display brightness and resolution.

An organic light emitting device structure having an organic light emitting device (OLED) over a substrate, where the OLED has, for example, an anode, a hole transporting layer (HTL), a first electron transporting layer (ETL) that is doped with a phosphorescent material, a second electron transporting layer (ETL), and a cathode. The OLEDs of the present invention are directed, in particular, to devices that include an emissive layer comprised of an electron transporting host material having a triplet excited state energy level that is higher than the emissive triplet excited state energy level of the phosphorescent dopant material.

The hole transporting layer comprises a compound having a symmetric molecular structure. The end groups of the symmetric molecule are hole transporting diaryl amine moieties.
Abstract:
An addressing method induces increased light output in an organic light emitting display by applying several excitation currents to each row in an display per frame. The row excitation pulses may advance sequentially across every row in the display and, when the row driver reaches the last row in the display, the row driver returns to the first row in the display and begins again. In an embodiment, the row driver may complete 100-1000 cycles across all rows in the display for each frame. This method of addressing the display yields increase light output with a correspondingly lower-powered excitation current.
