The effect of doping on the energy transfer and charge carrier trapping processes has been studied in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) doped with a fluorescent laser dye. The devices consisted of N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD) as a hole transporting layer, tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$) as the host, and a fluorescent dye, 4-dicyanomethylene-2-methyl-6-[2-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1 H,5H-benzo[i,j]quinolizin-8-yl) vinyl]-4H-pyran) (DCM2) as the dopant. Temperature dependence of the current-voltage-luminescence (I-V-L) characteristics, the electroluminescence (EL) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra are studied in the temperature ranging between 15 K and 300 K. The emission from DCM2 was seen to be much stronger compared with the emission from $Alq_3$, indicative of efficient energy transfer from $Alq_3$ to DCM2. In addition, the EL emission from DCM2 increasd with increasing temperature while the emission from the host $Alq_3$ decreased. The result indicates that direct charge carrier trapping becomes efficient with increasing temperature. The EL emission from DCM2 shows a slightly sublinear dependence on the current density, implying the enhanced quenching of excitons at high current densities due to the exciton-exciton annihilation.

A stacked white organic light-emitting diode (OLED) having a blue/orange emitting layer was fabricated by synthesizing nitro-DPVT, a new derivative of the blue-emitting material DPVBi on the market. The white-emission of the two-wavelength type was successfully obtained by using both nitro-DPVT for blue~emitting material, orange emission as a host material and Rubrene for orange emission as a guest material. The basic structure of the fabricated white OLED is glass/ITO/NPB$(200{\AA})$/nitro-DPVT$(100{\AA})$/nitro-DPVT:$Rubrene(100{\AA})/BCP(70{\AA})/Alq_3(150{\AA})/Al(600{\AA})$. To evaluate the. characteristics of the devices, firstly, we varied the doping concentrations of fluorescent dye Rubrene from 0.5 % to 0.8 % to 1.3 % to 1.5 % to 3.0 % by weight. A nearly pure white-emission was obtained in CIE coordinates of (0.3259, 0.3395) when the doping concentration of Rubrene was 1.3 % at an applied voltage of 18 V. Secondly, we varied the thickness of the NPB layer from $150{\AA}\;to\;200{\AA}\;to\;250{\AA}\;to\;300{\AA}$ by fixing doping with of Rubrene at 1.3 %. A nearly pure white-emission was also obtained in CIE coordinates of (0.3304, 0.3473) when the NPB layer was $250-{\AA}$ thick at an applied voltage of 16 V. The two devices started to operate at 4 V and to emit light at 4.5 V. The external quantum efficiency was above 0.4 % when almost all of the current was injected.

A new DCM derivative containing a phenothiazine moiety, 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-t-butyl-6-(9-ethylphenothiazine-2- enyl)-4H-pyran (DCPTZ), has been synthesized as an orange-red fluorescent dye molecule for organic lightemitting diodes (OLEDs). EL devices with the structure of $ITO/PEDOT-PSS/{\alpha}-NPD/Alq_3:DCPTZ/Alq_3/LiF/Al$ have been fabricated with changing the doping concentration of the DCPTZ. Maximum EL spectra of the devices ranged from $580{\sim}620$ nm depending on the doping concentration of the dye molecule. An EL device with 0.5 % doping concentration showed CIE coordinate (0.51, 0.47) at luminance of 100 $cd/m^2$. White light-emitting devices with the structure of $ITO/PEDOT-PSS/{\alpha}-NPD/{\alpha}-NPD:DCPTZ/DPVBi/Alq_3/$ LiF/Al have been also fabricated. The thickness of blue light-emitting 1,4-bis(2,2- diphenylvinyl)benzene (DPVBi) layer was changed to obtain a white light-emission. A white light-emission from the device was observed when the thickness of the DPVBi layer became thicker than 10 nm.

Doping a small amount of a phosphorescent dye into an organic light-emitting diodes(OLED) can lead to a significant improvement in the device properties. The fluorescent host materials like TAZ, CBP have been used, but have a problem of rapid decay of efficiency at high current densities. To alleviate this problem, phosphorescent host was introduced. The whole configuration of OELD fabricated was ITO/a-NPD(50nm)/Zn $cluster:Ir(ppy)_{3}(30nm)/BCP{(10nm)/Alq_{3}(20nm)$ /Al:Li. The OLED showed high luminance (> 50,000 $cd/m^{2}$ ) and external efficiency(5.7%). At higher current densities, rapid decay of external quantum efficiency or host emission, which was frequently observed in the fluorescent host system, were not observed.

The white-light-emitting organic LED with two-wavelength was fabricated using blue emitting material(DPVBi) and a series of orange color fluorescent dye(Rubrene) by vacuum evaporation processes. The basic structure of white-light-emitting OLED was ITO/NPB(150$\AA$)/DPVBi(150$\AA$)/Alq$_3$:Rubrene(150$\AA$)/BCP(100$\AA$)/Alq$_3$(150$\AA$)/Al(600$\AA$). The changes of the CIE coordiante strongly depended on the doping concentration of Rubrene and the thickness of NPB layer. We obtained the white-light-emitting OLED close to the pure white color light and the CIE coordinate of the device was (0.315, 0.330) at applied voltage of 13V when the doping concentration of Rubrene was 0.5wt% and the thickness of NPB layer is 200$\AA$. At a current of 100mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, the quantum efficiency was 0.35%.

We present an extremely high efficient red organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using a fluorescent dye 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-tert-butyl-6-(1,1,7,7-tetramethyljulolidyl-9-enyl)-4H-pyran (DCJTB) doped into an emitting region which consists of multiple pairs of a doped and an undoped layer. An emitting region of OLEDs composes of a tris-(8-hydroxyquinolinato) aluminum (Alq3) codoped with rubrene of 5% wt. or a mixture of Alq3 and rubrene (1:1). The luminance yield of the codoped device and the mixed device are 6.5 cd/A and 9.2 cd/A at 10 mA/$cm^2$, respectively. We have considerably improved the luminance yields of red OLEDs as much as ${\sim}$90% at 10 mA/$cm^2$ compared with that of the device doped with only DCJTB. We attribute it to both the emitting assist dopant (rubrene) and the dotted-line doping structure in an emitting region of OLED.

A new DCM derivative containing the phenoxazine moiety (DCPXZ) has been synthesized for use as a red fluorescent dye molecule in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The photoluminescence and electroluminescence properties of DCPXZ were examined. The maximum photoluminescence of DCPXZ in chloroform solution ($10^{-5}$ mol) was observed at 616 nm. EL devices were fabricated with the structure ITO/PEDOT-PSS/Cu-PC(15nm)/${\alpha}$-NPD(45nm)/$Alq_3$:DCPXZ(30nm)/$Alq_3$(30nm)/LiF(0.5nm)/Al. The maximum EL emission for the 2.0% DCPXZ-doped device was at 608 nm with CIE coordinates (0.57, 0.42). The EL device exhibited a maximum brightness of 15,000 cd/$m^2$ at 19.4 V and a power efficiency of 1.04 lm/W at a luminance of 100 cd/$m^2$.

To fabricate a single layer white organic light emitting diode (OLED), a novel non-conjugated blue emitting material PPPMA-co-DTPM copolymer was synthesized containing a perylene moiety unit with hole transporting and blue emitting ability and a triazine moiety unit with electron transporting ability. The devices were fabricated using PPPMA-co-DTPM $(PPPMA[70\;wt\%]:DTPM[30\;wt\%])$ copolymer by varying the doping concentrations of each red, green and blue fluorescent dye, by molecular-dispersing into Toluene solvent with spin coating method. In case of ITO/PPPMA-co-DTPM:TPB$(3\;mol\%):C6(0.04\;mol\%):NR(0.015\;mol\%)/Al$ structure, as they were molecular-dispersing into 30 mg/ml Toluene solvent, nearly-pure white light was obtained both (0.325, 0.339) in the CIE coordinates at 18 V and (0.335, 0.345) at 15 V. The turn-on voltage was 3 V, the light-emitting turn-on voltage was 4 V, and the maximum external quantum efficiency was $0.667\%$ at 24.5 V. Also, in case of using 40 mg/ml Toluene solvent, the CIE coordinate was (0.345, 0.342) at 20 V.
