Tandem organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) do not always improve power efficiency over their conventional OLED counterparts. When a tandem OLED utilizes optimized EL units, increased power efficiency can only be achieved if the intermediate connector in the device has excellent charge injection capability.

In this paper, a renovated approach in the fabrication of red organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is described. The hard-to-control doping process required for dopant-based red OLEDs can be avoided due to the novel red fluorophores that are not concentration quenching in solid state. Doping is in general a must for phosphorescence OLEDs because of the triplet-triplet annihilation, a common problem for phosphorophore dopants. However, we have recently found that extraordinary red iridium complex showing relatively short emission lifetime render the non-doped phosphorescence red OLED possible.

The optical properties of the materials composing organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are considered when designing the optical structure of OLEDs. Optical design is related to the optical properties, such as the efficiency, emission spectra, and color coordinates of OLED devices because of the microcavity effect in top-emitting OLEDs. In this study, the properties of top-emitting blue OLEDs were optimized by adjusting the thicknesses of the thin metal layer and capping layer (CPL). Deep blue emission was achieved in an OLED structure with a second cavity length, even when the transmittance of the thin metal layer was high. The thin metal film thickness ranges applicable to OLEDs with a second microcavity structure are wide. Instead, the thickness of the thin metal layer determines the optimized thickness of the CPL for high efficiency. A thinner metal layer means that higher efficiency can be obtained in OLED devices with a second microcavity structure. In addition, OLEDs with a thinner metal layer showed less color change as a function of the viewing angle.

유기 발광 다이오드를 위한 indium oxide (ITO) 기판을 여러 가지로 방법으로 표면처리를 하고, 이에 따른 atomic force microscopy (AFM)에 의한 morphology의 변화와 표면에서 변화된 원소들의 조성비를 Auger electron spectroscopy (AES)분석에 의하여 조사하였다. 또한 이 기판을 사용하여 초고진공분자선 증착방법에 의하여 유기 발광다이오드를 제작하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. 그 결과 산소플라즈마으로 표면 처리한 ITO 기판 위에 제조된 organic light-emitting diode (OLED)소자의 특성이 향상되었다. 그것은 AES의 분석에 의하면 ITO 표면의 오염된 탄소가 제거되고 ITO의 일함수가 증가되어 정공이 유기물 층으로 용이하게 주입한 결과로 판단된다.

In this paper, we present a finite element method (FEM) study on the space charge effects in organic light emitting diodes. The physical model covers all the key physical processes in OLEDs, namely charge injection, transport and recombination, exciton diffusion, transfer and decay as well as light coupling, and thin-film-optics. The exciton model includes generation, diffusion, and energy transfer as well as annihilation. We assumed that the light emission originates from oscillation which thus is embodied as exciton in a stack of multilayer. We discuss the accumulation of charges at internal interfaces and their signature in the transient response as well as the electric field distribution. We also report our investigation on the influence of the insertion of the emission layer (EML) in the bilayer structure.

Amorphous In-Ga-Zn-O (a-IGZO) thin film transistors (TFTs) with a coplanar structure were fabricated to investigate the feasibility of their potential application in large size organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). Drain currents, used as functions of the gate voltages for the TFTs, showed the output currents had slight differences in the saturation region, just as the output currents of the etch stopper TFTs did. The maximum difference in the threshold voltages of the In-Ga-Zn-O (a-IGZO) TFTs was as small as approximately 0.57 V. After the application of a positive bias voltage stress for 50,000 s, the values of the threshold voltage of the coplanar structure TFTs were only slightly shifted, by 0.18 V, indicative of their stability. The coplanar structure TFTs were embedded in OLEDs and exhibited a maximum luminance as large as 500 nits, and their color gamut satisfied 99 % of the digital cinema initiatives, confirming their suitability for large size and high resolution OLEDs. Further, the image density of large-size OLEDs embedded with the coplanar structure TFTs was significantly enhanced compared with OLEDs embedded with conventional TFTs.

Organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs) have been expected to find an application as a new type of display since C. W. Tang and VanSlyke first reported on high performance OLEDs.

A simple method of fabricating out-coupling structures was demonstrated via solution-processing to enhance light extraction from organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Scattering layers were easily obtained by spin-coating an $SiO_2$ sol solution that contained $TiO_2$ particles. By introducing the scattering layer and the solution-processible corrugated structure as internal and external extraction layers, the OLEDs showed increased external quantum efficiency without a change in the electroluminescence spectrum compared to conventional devices. Using these solution-processible out-coupling structures, nearly all-solution-processed OLEDs with enhanced light extraction could be fabricated. The light extraction enhancement is attributed to the suppression by the out-coupling structures of the light-trapping that arose at the interface of the glass substrate and the air.

Properties of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with aluminum-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Al) anodes showed different behaviors from OLEDs with indium tin oxide (ITO) anodes according to driving conditions. OLEDs with ITO anodes gave higher current density and luminance in lower voltage region and better EL and power efficiency under lower current density conditions, However, OLEDs with ZnO:Al anodes gave higher current density and luminance in higher voltage region over about 8V and better EL and power efficiency under higher current density over $200mA/cm^2$. These seemed to be due to the differences in conduction properties of semiconducting ZnO:Al and metallic ITO. OLEDs with ZnO:Al anodes showed nearly saturated efficiency under high current driving conditions compared with those of OLEDs with ITO anodes. This meant better charge balance in OLEDs with ZnO:Al anodes. These properties of OLEDs with ZnO:Al anodes are useful in making bright display devices with efficiency.

We have studied the temperature dependence of current-voltage and luminance-voltage characteristics of Organic Light Emitting Diodes(OLEDs). The OLEDS are based on the molecular compounds, N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD) as a hole transport, tris(8-hydroxyquinolinoline) aluminum(III) (Alq$_3$) as an electron transport, and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) as a buffer layer. The current-voltage and luminance-voltage characteristics were measured in the temperature range of 10[K] and 300[K]. A conduction mechanism in OLEDs has been interpreted in terms of space-charge-limited current(SCLC) and tunneling mechanism.
