  • Overview of OLED: Structure and Operation
    OLEDs: Modifiability and Applications Jill A. Rowehl 3.063- Polymer Physics 21 May 2007 1 "The dream is to get to the point where you can roll out OLEDs or stick them up like Post-it notes," --Janice Mahon, vice president of technical commercialization at Universal Display1 Take a look at your cell phone; do you see a display that saves your battery and doubles as a mirror? When you dream of your next TV, are you picturing an unbelievably thin screen that can be seen perfectly from any viewing angle? If you buy a movie two decades from now, will it come in a cheap, disposable box that continually plays the trailer? These three products are all applications of organic light emitting devices (OLEDs). OLEDs are amazing devices that can be modified through even the smallest details of chemical structure or processing and that have a variety of applications, most notably lighting and flexible displays. Overview of OLEDs: Structure and Operation The OLED structure is similar to inorganic LEDs: an emitting layer between an anode and a cathode. Holes and electrons are injected from the anode and cathode; when the charge carriers annihilate in the middle organic layer, a photon is emitted. However, there is sometimes difficulty in injecting carriers into the organic layer from the usually inorganic contacts. To solve this problem, often the structure includes an electron transport layer (ETL) and/or a hole transport layer (HTL), which facilitate the injection of charge carriers. All of 2 these layers must be grown on top of each other, with the first grown on a substrate (see Figure 1).

  • QLED Vs. W-OLED: TV Display Technology Shoot-Out
    Public Information Display QLED vs. W-OLED: TV Display Technology Shoot-Out This year's display product introductions—from CES 2017 to the most recent IFA 2017 event—are pointing towards the fact that display technology is poised for evolution. There are two competing technologies that display manufacturers have been using to take the picture quality to the new heights: QLED and OLED. While the technologies are using similar acronyms, their working principles differ substantially. With the abundance of marketing materials around both, it could be hard to see the forest for the trees. Samsung Display team set out to take a step back from the advertising jargon and "look under the hood" to help you truly understand what solution best suits your industry and application. First and foremost, let's get the nomenclature straight. QLED – Quantum Dot LED QLED stands for Quantum Dot Light-Emitting Diode, also referred to as quantum dot-enhanced LCD screen. While similar in working principle to conventional LCDs, QLEDs are using the properties of quantum dot particles to advance color purity and improve display efficiency. Quantum dots are integrated with the backlight system of the LCD screen, most commonly with the help of Quantum Dot Enhancement Film (QDEF) that takes place of the diffuser film. Blue LEDs illuminate the film, and quantum dots output the appropriate color, based on their size. OLED – Organic LED OLED stands for Organic Light-Emitting Diode, which is self-emitting. Not all OLEDs are using the same tech though. The OLED technology used in phone screens is RGB-OLED, which is completely different from the White OLED (also referred to as W-OLED) used in TVs and large format displays.

Published by SETSCI Low Voltage Organic Field Effect Light Emitting Transistors with Vertical Geometry Melek Uygun1*+, Savaş Berber2 1Occupational Health and Safety Program, Altınbas University, Istanbul, Turkey 2Physics Department, Gebze Technical University, Kocaeli, Turkey *Corresponding authors and +Speaker: [email protected] Presentation/Paper Type: Oral / Full Paper Abstract –The devices developed in the field of organic electronics in recent years are on the technological applications and development of organic electronic devices using organic semiconductor films. The main applications of the organic electronic revolution are; Electrochromic Device, Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLED), Organic Field Effect Transistors (OFET). Among these devices, OLED technology has taken its place in the commercial market in the last five years and has started to be used in our daily life in a short time. The efficiency of OFET devices is related to the operation of the devices at low voltage. This is only possible if the load carriers in the channel of the OFET have a low distance. A new field of research is the ability to implement two or more features on a single device, in the construction of integrated devices. Light emitting transistors (OLEFET), where light emission and current modulation are collected in a single device, are the most intensively studied devices. In this study, ITO substrate, source and drain electrodes were made from aluminum electrode structured organic field effect OLEFETs.

  • Characterization of Organic Light-Emitting Devices
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Benjamin J. Norris for the degree of Mast?r of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering presented on June 11, 1999. Title: Light-Emitting Devices Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved -~----- In this thesis steady-state (i. e. steady-state with respect to the applied volt­ age waveform) transient current-transient voltage [i(t)-v(t)], transient brightness­ transient current [b(t)-i(t)], transient brightness-transient voltage [b(t)-v(t)], tran­ sient current [i{t)], transient brightness [b(t)], and detrapped charge analysis are introduced as novel organic light emitting device (OLED) characterization meth­ ods. These analysis methods involve measurement of the instantaneous voltage [v(t)] across, the instantaneous current [i(t)] through, and the instantaneous brightness [b(t)] from an OLED when it is subjected to a bipolar, piecewise-linear applied volt­ age waveform. The utility of these characterization methods is demonstrated via comparison of different types of OLEDs and polymer light emitting devices (PLEDs) and from a preliminary study of OLED aging. Some of the device parameters ob­ tained from these characterization methods include: OLED capacitance, accumu­ lated charge, electron transport layer (ETL) thickness, hole transport layer (HTL) thickness, OLED thickness, parallel resistance, and series resistance. A current bump observed in i(t)-v(t) curves is attributed to the removal of accumulated hole charge from the ETL/HTL interface and is only observed in heterojunctions (i.e. OLEDs), not in single-layer devices (i. e. PLEDs). Using the characterization methods devel­ oped in this thesis, two important OLED device physics conclusions are obtained: (1) Hole accumulation at the ETL/HTL interface plays an important role in estab­ lishing balanced charge injection of electrons and holes into the OLED.

  • Organic Light Emitting Diodes: Device Physics and Effect of Ambience on Performance Parameters
    1 Organic Light Emitting Diodes: Device Physics and Effect of Ambience on Performance Parameters T.A. Shahul Hameed1, P. Predeep1 and M.R. Baiju2 1Laboratory for Unconventional Electronics and Photonics, National Institute of Technology, Calicut, Kerala, 2Department of Electronics and Communication, College of Engineering, Trivandrum, Kerala, India 1. Introduction Research in Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) displays has been attaining greater momentum for the last two decades obviously due to their capacity to form flexible (J. H. Burroughes et al, 1990) multi color displays. Their potential advantages include easy processing, robustness and inexpensive foundry (G.Yu & A.J.Heeger, 1997) compared to inorganic counterparts. In fact, this new comer in display is rapidly moving from fundamental research into industrial product, throwing many new challenges (J. Dane and J.Gao, 2004; G. Dennler et al, 2006) like degradation and lifetime. In order to design suitable structures for application specific displays, the studies pertaining to the device physics and models are essentially important. Such studies will lead to the development of accurate and reliable models of performance, design optimization, integration with existing platforms, design of silicon driver circuitry and prevention of device degradation. More over, a clear understanding on the device physics (W.Brutting et al, 2001) is necessary for optimizing the electrical properties including balanced carrier injection (J.C.Scott et al, 1997: A.Benor et al., 2010) and the location of the emission in the device. The degradation (J.C.Scott et al, 1996; J. Dane and J.Gao, 2004) of the device is primarily caused by the moisture , which poses questions to the reliability and life of this promising display.

    Improved Light Extraction Efficiency of Organic Light Emitting Diode using Photonic Crystals Chaya B. M., Venkatesha M., Ananya N. and Narayan K. Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Sai Vidya Institute of Technology, Rajanukunte, Bangalore, India Keywords: Organic Light Emitting Diode, Photonic Crystals, Light Extraction Efficiency. Abstract: In this work modelling of two dimensional of a fluorescence based Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) using plastic as flexible substrate is presented. The Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) mathematical modelling has been used to analyse the light extraction efficiency from fluorescence based Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED). The OLED structure has been simulated by using 2D Hexagonal photonic crystal lattice. The Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method is used to model and simulate the OLED structure. An enhancement of Internal Quantum Efficiency (IQE) and Light Extraction Efficiency (LEE) has been achieved by inserting Photonic Crystal above the emissive layer. The improvement in the extraction efficiency of OLED structure is achieved by increasing the radiative decay rate and by optimizing the angular distribution of light through the substrate. 1 INTRODUCTION substrate may affect the thermal resistance (Kim et al., 2004). In this paper Poly (ethylene terephthalate) Organic Light Emitting Diode is an electrolumi- (PET) is used as a Plastic Substrate. PET has greater nescence device which is formed using double layer flexibility, robustness and is less expensive structure of organic layers to produce light emission. compared to glass substrate. The PET is a polymer This is achieved by driving voltage as dc source electrode with high transmission in visible range of below 10 Volts (Tang and VanSlyke, 1987).

  • Overview of All Pixel Circuits for Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (AMOLED)
    Chapter 2 Overview of All Pixel Circuits for Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (AMOLED) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.1 Introduction Organic light emitting diodes (OLED) displays are being actively developed recently accompanied by the rapid enhancement of OLED device performance such as luminous efficiency and long lifetime [2.1]-[2.2]. Because of various superior performance including self-emissive characteristic, simple structure, high contrast ratio, high brightness resulted from high emission efficiency, fast response time, wide viewing angle, and low cost [2.3]-[2.5], OLED displays show great potential to replace liquid crystal displays (LCDs) in several applications. OLED displays can be driven either by passive matrix (PMOLED) or active matrix (AMOLED) according to its driving method. Although most of the displays in commercial products are passively addressed with low fabrication cost and easy structure [2.6], they are biased during a short period, so higher current and higher voltage are necessary to achieve average brightness across the panel. This would dissipate more power and degrade OLED device rapidly. Therefore, active matrix driving method using low-temperature polycrystalline silicon thin film transistors (LTPS TFTs) is better for the high resolution displays in the future with the advantages of smaller number of 18 interconnections to peripheral electronics, low power consumption and, low fabrication cost. In the active matrix driving scheme, two transistors and one capacitor in each pixel are necessary for OLED to achieve the continuous illumination throughout the whole frame time [2.7] and the driving transistors are used to control different gray scales of the display brightness. Although the conventional pixel circuit with simple scheme has relative high aperture ratio, it encounters the problems of non-uniform brightness and poor gray scale accuracy in each pixel due to the electrical characteristic variation of the transistors and OLED.
