Notes:
Bright single-layer white light-emitting organic electroluminescent devices were developed by using dye-dispersed poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK). The active layer consists only of one polymer layer that is simply sandwiched between two electrodes, indium-tin oxide, and Mg:Ag. In order to achieve bipolarity in the single polymer emitter layer, PVK was molecularly dispersed with electron-transporting additives such as 2-(4-biphenyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole. In addition, several fluorescent dyes, having different emission colors, were dispersed as emitting centers. By adjusting the concentration of the fluorescent dyes, white light with a maximum luminescence of 4100 cd/m2 was obtained, which is the brightest white light ever observed for organic electroluminescent devices. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
