Module 2 : Systems under technological importance

Lecture 13 : Organic Light Emitting Diodes

 

• OLED is a display device that sandwiches carbon based films between the two electrodes and when voltage is applied creates light

• SMOLED's & LEP's are its technology branches.

• Chemical modifications to the structure can tune the emission over the entire visible region.

• Multilayer devices and dopants also play a role in tuning emission.

The dynamic interplay of chemistry with device physics results in these remarkable displays .
