Polymer OLEDs Match Small-Molecule Efficiencies
Researchers from Universität zu Köln and Universität Potsdam, both in Germany, have developed polymer-based organic LEDs (OLEDs) that display an internal quantum efficiency approaching 100 percent and external quantum efficiencies that match the best values reported for multilayer small-molecule devices. The emitters have the added advantage of being solution-processable, which enables low fabrication costs. The green polymer-based organic LEDs have an internal quantum efficiency...
