Problems solved by technology

A further disadvantage of conventional organic light-emitting diodes is the often chosen arrangement with a transparent substrate: in this case the light emission of the light-emitting diode is achieved through transparent electrodes and the substrate, while the oppositely arranged contacts (in most cases the substrate) are Opaque and highly reflective in the relevant spectral region
Subsequently, for this application, highly transparent substrates and transparent contact layers are necessary, which in many cases limit the choice of substrates to a large extent and prevent the choice of particularly inexpensive substrates

[0088] In Example 3, it is shown how an additional layer of varnish on a metal substrate contributes to lower leakage current and subsequently improved electrical performance. At the same time, a thick p-side is used, which helps to make the surface more uniform.

Abstract

Organic light-emitting diode with a layer arrangement which comprises an electrode, a counter electrode and an organic layer sequence arranged between the electrode and the counter electrode, where the organic layer sequence is arranged on a metal substrate and one or several organic transport layers containing in each case an admixture for increasing the electric conductivity and which are formed with at least one of the features from the following group of features: charge carrier transporting and charge carrier injecting.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electroluminescent light-emitting devices. Background technique [0002] Since the demonstration of low operating voltage by Tang et al. (C.W.Tang et al.: Appl. Phys. Lett.51(12), 913(1987)), organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have become the preferred choice for realizing large-area displays and lighting elements. Promising candidates. They consist of a series of thin layers (typically 1 nm to 1 μm) of organic materials which are preferably spin-coated or vapor-deposited in vacuum in their polymeric form. After being electrically contacted by conductive layers, they form various components such as light-emitting diodes, displays and lighting elements. With their respective properties, they bring competition to components built on organic layers. [0003] In the case of organic light-emitting diodes, an externally applied voltage results in the injection of charge carriers (electrons from one side and holes f...
