Description

Organic light-emitting device
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an organic light emitting device, and more particularly, to an organic light emitting device with little color difference between different viewing angles.
Background
The structure of an Organic light-emitting device (abbreviated as OLED) operates based on the principle of electroluminescence. The typical structure is that a layer of organic luminescent material with the thickness of dozens of nanometers is made on ITO glass to be used as a luminescent layer, and a layer of metal electrode with low work function is arranged above the luminescent layer. When a voltage is applied across the electrodes, the light-emitting layer generates light radiation. Unlike inorganic thin film electroluminescent devices (TFEL), electroluminescence of organic materials is an injection type of composite luminescence, which has a luminescence mechanism in which holes and electrons generated from an anode and a cathode are combined into excitons in a luminescent material, energy of the excitons is transferred to luminescent molecules, so that the electrons in the luminescent molecules are excited to an excited state, which is an unstable state, and visible light is generated by a deactivation process.
Organic Light Emitting Devices (OLEDs) have the advantages of being light, thin, high color, high contrast, and can be fabricated on flexible substrates, and can be used for lighting and display applications. However, the organic light emitting device (0LED) is an optical micro-resonant cavity structure, and the different wavelengths of the phase matching at different viewing angles cause the light output amount of the different wavelengths at different viewing angles to change, so that the light output color of the Organic Light Emitting Device (OLED) at different viewing angles changes, and thus the colors of the Organic Light Emitting Devices (OLED) at different viewing angles have a larger difference.
In view of the above, it is an urgent issue to be solved by those skilled in the art how to design a novel Organic Light Emitting Device (OLED) to reduce color differences at different viewing angles as much as possible.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defect that colors of different visual angles of an organic light-emitting device (OLED) have larger difference in the prior art, the invention provides a novel organic light-emitting device.
According to the present invention, there is provided an organic light emitting device comprising: transparent substrate, positive pole, organic luminescent layer, negative pole and light scattering membrane. Wherein the anode is positioned on the transparent substrate; the organic light-emitting layer is positioned on the anode; the cathode is positioned on the organic light-emitting layer; and the light scattering film is positioned below the transparent substrate and has a thickness of more than 100 mu m, scattering particles are doped in a matrix of the light scattering film, the size of the scattering particles is between 100 and 1000 nanometers, the weight ratio of the scattering particles to the matrix is between 0.05 and 10 percent, and the refractive indexes of the scattering particles and the matrix are different.
Preferably, the substrate is made of a silicone material.
Preferably, the scattering particles are different from the matrix material, including titanium oxide, zirconium oxide or silica nanoparticles.
Preferably, the anode is made of indium tin oxide.
Preferably, the cathode is made of at least one of magnesium, aluminum, silver or calcium.
Preferably, the organic light emitting device further comprises a hole transport layer between the anode and the organic light emitting layer.
Preferably, the organic light emitting device further comprises an electron transport layer between the cathode and the organic light emitting layer.
Preferably, the organic light emitting device further comprises a hole injection layer between the anode and the hole transport layer.
Preferably, the transparent substrate may be made of glass.
By adopting the organic light-emitting device (OLED) provided by the invention, incident light can be scattered for multiple times, and the probability of scattering light to different angles is increased, so that the difference of colors of different viewing angles of the organic light-emitting device (OLED) can be reduced.

The various aspects of the present invention will become more apparent to the reader after reading the detailed description of the invention with reference to the attached drawings. Wherein,
FIG. 1 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a prior art organic light emitting device without a light scattering film;
FIG. 2 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a prior art organic light emitting device having a thin light scattering film;
fig. 3 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of an organic light emitting device according to the present invention.
Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a prior art organic light emitting device without a light scattering film. Referring to fig. 1, the organic light emitting device 10 includes: a transparent substrate 100, an anode 110, a hole transport layer 120, an organic light emitting layer 130, an electron transport layer 140, and a cathode 150. The anode 110 is disposed on the transparent substrate 100, the hole transport layer 120 is disposed on the anode 110, the organic light emitting layer 130 is disposed on the hole transport layer 120, the electron transport layer 140 is disposed on the organic light emitting layer 130, and the cathode 150 is disposed above the electron transport layer 140. Under the bias condition, electrons from the cathode 150 recombine with holes from the anode 110 at the organic light emitting layer 130, causing the organic light emitting layer 130 to emit light.
As shown in fig. 1, since the light emitted from the organic light emitting layer 130 sequentially passes through the hole transporting layer 120, the anode 110 and the transparent substrate 100, since the matching wavelengths of the lights are different, when the light 101 enters the air from the transparent substrate 100, the refractive indexes are also different, which causes a great difference in the light emitting amount of different wavelengths at different viewing angles, so that the light emitting color of the organic light emitting device 10 at different viewing angles is greatly different.
Fig. 2 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a related art organic light emitting device having a thin light scattering film. Referring to fig. 2, the organic light emitting device 20 includes: a transparent substrate 200, an anode 210, a hole transport layer 220, an organic light emitting layer 230, an electron transport layer 240, a cathode 250, and a light scattering film 260. Similar to fig. 1, the anode 210 is disposed on the transparent substrate 200, the hole transport layer 220 is disposed on the anode 210, the organic light emitting layer 230 is disposed on the hole transport layer 220, the electron transport layer 240 is disposed on the organic light emitting layer 230, and the cathode 250 is disposed on the electron transport layer 240. Also under bias conditions, electrons from the cathode 250 recombine with holes from the anode 210 at the organic light emitting layer 230, causing the organic light emitting layer 230 to emit light. Light emitted from the organic light emitting layer 230 passes through the hole transport layer 220, the anode 210, and the transparent substrate 200 in this order.
With reference to fig. 2, in order to improve the defect that the light emitting amount of different wavelengths of different viewing angles has different differences due to different matching wavelengths of various lights, so that the light emitting color of the organic light emitting device at different viewing angles is greatly different, the light scattering film 260 is attached below the transparent substrate 200, and the dispersed particles 262 are doped in the matrix 261 of the light scattering film 260, so that the light 201 emitted from the transparent substrate 200 can be scattered, the probability that the light 201 is scattered to different viewing angles is increased, and the aforementioned defect that the light color at different viewing angles is different can be slightly improved, but because the light scattering film 260 is relatively thin, the light 201 from the transparent substrate 200 has a relatively narrow viewing angle range after being scattered, so the light color difference at different viewing angles is still relatively large.
Fig. 3 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of an organic light emitting device according to the present invention. Referring to fig. 3, the organic light emitting device 30 includes: a transparent substrate 300, an anode 310, a hole transport layer 320, an organic light emitting layer 330, an electron transport layer 340, a cathode 350, and a light scattering film 360. In this embodiment, the transparent substrate 300 is made of glass, the anode 310 is an indium tin oxide layer, and the cathode 350 is made of a magnesium silver alloy.
Similar to fig. 2, the anode 310 is positioned on the transparent substrate 300, the hole transport layer 320 is positioned on the anode 310, the organic light emitting layer 330 is positioned on the hole transport layer 320, the electron transport layer 340 is positioned on the organic light emitting layer 330, and the cathode 350 is positioned on the electron transport layer 340. In other embodiments, a hole injection layer may be disposed between the anode 310 and the hole transport layer 320. Under bias conditions, electrons from the cathode 350 recombine with holes from the anode 310 at the organic light emitting layer 330, causing the organic light emitting layer 330 to emit light. Light emitted from the organic light emitting layer 330 passes through the hole transport layer 320, the anode 310, and the transparent substrate 300 in order.
In order to also improve the defect that the light emitting amount of different wavelengths at different viewing angles has a great difference due to different matching wavelengths of various lights, so that the light emitting color of the organic light emitting device at different viewing angles has a great difference, a light scattering film 360 is disposed below the transparent substrate 300, scattering particles 362 are doped in a matrix 361 of the light scattering film 360, the size of the scattering particles 362 is between 100 and 1000 nanometers, the weight ratio of the scattering particles 362 to the matrix 361 is between 0.05 and 10%, the matrix 361 is made of an organic silicon material, in this embodiment, the scattering particles 362 are titanium oxide nanoparticles, and in another embodiment, the scattering particles 362 may be zirconium oxide or silicon dioxide nanoparticles. The scattering particles 362 have a refractive index greater than or less than that of the matrix 361. The thickness of the light scattering film 360 is greater than 100 μm, and the light 301 from the transparent substrate 300 can be scattered multiple times because the light scattering film 360 is thicker, so that the probability of scattering the light 301 to different viewing angles can be increased, and the defect that the organic light emitting device has great difference in the light color of the emitted light at different viewing angles can be overcome.
The invention has the advantages that: the organic light-emitting device is provided with the thick light scattering film, so that light entering air can be scattered for multiple times, the chance of scattering the light to different angles is increased, and the difference of light colors of the organic light-emitting device at different viewing angles is reduced.
Hereinbefore, specific embodiments of the present invention are described with reference to the drawings. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications and substitutions can be made to the specific embodiments of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Such modifications and substitutions are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
