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. -

Build Yourself a Nixie Clock! You May Have Seen Them in Old Sci-Fi Movies and Wondered How They Worked
Build yourself a nixie clock! You may have seen them in old sci-fi movies and wondered how they worked. Well, here is your chance to experiment with nixie tubes by building your own nixie clock. igital displays such as LEDs and LCDs are everywhere nowadays, Dbut have you ever wondered what was used before these technologies came along? There were several commonly used dig- ital displays—in fact, you may have even owned a digital clock with a mechanical display, where small tiles or cards were flipped over to show the number required. However, there was another type of display quite common before LEDs and LCDs took over—nixie tubes. What is a nixie tube, you ask? Well, nixies are a special type of neon bulb. You have most likely seen the small tific American, June 1973, pp. 66). the am/pm indicator, the colons, and the orange-glowing neon bulbs found in some brightness of the blue LEDs under the powerpoints which are used as power-on A warning nixie tubes. indicators.
