Title:
PHOSPHORESCENT LIGHT-EMITTING COMPONENT COMPRISING ORGANIC LAYERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003100880
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a light-emitting component comprising organic layers and emitting triplet excitonic states (phosphorescent light) with increased efficiency. Said component comprises a layer sequence having a hole-injecting contact (anode), at least one hole-injecting and transporting layer, a layer system in the light emission zone, at least one electron-transporting and injecting layer, and an electron-injecting contact (cathode). The inventive component is characterised in that the light-emitting zone consists of a row of heterojunctions with materials A and B (ABAB...) which form interfaces of type "staggered type II". One material (A) exhibits hole-transporting or bipolar transport characteristics and the other material (B) exhibits electron-transporting or bipolar transport characteristics. At least one of the two materials A or B is mixed with a triplet-emitter-dopant which is able to efficiently convert its triplet excitonic energy into light.
