Typical OLED devices consist of several thin layers of various emissive and charge transport materials constructed on transparent substrates. The U.S. Department of Energy has stated that "to realize the full potential of OLED technology, new materials and systems are needed that offer vastly improved efficiency and stability in the active regions of the device: cathode and anode layers, electron and hole transport and injection layers, emission layers, and carrier blocking layers."
The Dow Corning project will address these challenges, in that new HIM systems will be developed to overcome processing and performance problems associated with conventional HIMs while maintaining or enhancing the desired properties, such as OLED brightness, efficiency and lifetime.
Dow Corning has won a contract from the U.S. Display Consortium for research into materials used to develop next-generation OLED displays.
The USDC's contract award to Dow Corning will focus on the development of novel hole injection materials (HIM) for production of higher efficiency organic light emitting diode devices (OLED) suitable for high-definition displays. The USDC, based in San Jose, Calif., and Dow Corning will equally share the cost of the $2.39M development project, the two agencies said.
