High luminous efficiencies of 7.4 cd.A-1 and 27.4 cd.A-1 are achieved in red and green PLEDs, respectively, by optimizing the doping concentrations of red phosphorescent dye iridium bis（1- phenylisoquinoline） （acetylacetonate） （Ir（piq）） and green phosphorescent dye iridium tris（2-（4-tolyl）pyridinato-N, C2＇） （Ir（mppy）3）.Furthermore, highly efficient white PLEDs （WPLEDs） with the Commission Internationale de l＇Eclairage （CIE） coordinates of （0.35, 0.38） are successfully produced by carefully controlling the doping concentration of the irid- ium complex. The obtained WPLEDs show maximal efficiencies of 14.4 cd.A-1 and 10.1 lm.W-1, which are comparable to those of incandescent bulbs. Moreover, the electroluminescent spectrum of the white device with an initial luminance of about 1000 cd.m-2 is stable, subject to constant applied current stress, indicating that good device stability can be obtained in this system.展开更多

However, their fast degradation remained a major obstacle to theircommercialization. Here we present a brief summary of our studies on both extrinsic and intrinsic causes for the fastdegradation of OLEDs. In particular, we focus on the origin of the dark spots by 'rebuilding' cathodes, which confirms thatthe growth of dark spots occurs primarily due to cathode delamination. In the meantime, we recapture the findings from thesearch for suitable OLED packaging materials, in particular polymer composites, which provide both heat dissipation andmoisture resistance, in addition to electrical insulation.展开更多
