Embodiment Construction
[0019] Typically, an OLED includes at least one organic layer disposed between and electrically connected to an anode and a cathode. When an electric current is applied, the anode injects holes into the organic layer and the cathode injects electrons into the organic layer. The injected holes and electrons each migrate toward oppositely charged electrodes. When an electron and a hole are localized on the same molecule, an "exciton" is formed, which is a localized electron-hole pair with an excited energy state. Light is emitted when the excitons decay through the photoemission mechanism. In some cases, excitons may be localized on excimer associations or exciplexes. Non-emissive mechanisms may also occur, such as thermal relaxation phenomena, but are generally considered undesirable.
[0020] For example, the original OLEDs used emissive molecules that emitted light from a singlet state ("fluorescence") as disclosed in US Patent No. 4,769,292, which is incorporated herein b...
