Optimal Color Stability for White Organic Light-Emitting Diode (WOLED)‎ by Using Multiple-Ultra-Thin Layers (MUTL)‎

Abstract EN

The work demonstrates the improvement of color stability for white organic light-emitting diode (WOLED).

The devices were prepared by vacuum deposition on ITO-glass substrates.

These guest materials of 5,6,11,12-tetraphenylnaphthacene (Rubrene) were deposited in 4,4′-bis(2,2-diphenyl vinyl)-1,1′-biphenyl (DPVBi), resulting in an emitting layer.

Experimental results reveal that the properties in the multiple-ultra-thin layer (MUTL) are better than those of the emitting layer with a single guest material, reaching the commercial white-light wavelength requirement of 400–700 nm.

The function of the MUTL is as the light-emitting and trapping layer.

The results show that the MUTL has excellent carrier capture effect, leading to high color stability of the device at various applied voltages.

The Commissions Internationale De L’Eclairage (CIE) coordinate of this device at 3~7 V is few displacement and shows a very slight variation of (0.016, 0.009).

The CIE coordinates at a maximal luminance of 9980 cd/m2 are (0.34, 0.33).
