A Study on Improvement Lifetime of Passive Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode using Single Layer Thin Film

PMOLED의 수명향상을 위한 단일박막구조의 봉지기술에 관한 연구

In the research, we have proposed a novel encapsulation with simple process and steady film for external environment in comparison with conventional encapsulation method. This was designed to cover the emitting organic material from air. Silicon 야oxide was used for thin film of encapsulation and the deposition thickness of the organic film was 220 nm. Operating voltage of green OLED with encapsulation was 5.5 V and luminance was 7.370 cd/$m^2$ at the applied voltage of 14.5 V. Luminance was measured in 10 hour intervals at the air-exposed condition. After 110 hours and 300 hours, luminances of green OLED were 7,368 and 7,367 cd/$m^2$, respectively. Luminance of green JLED doesn't decrease until 300 hours. As a results, proposed encapsulation can increase the life time of green OLED.
