Big Boost for Blue OLEDs

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
SALT LAKE CITY, March 23, 2009 – Lighting consumes one-fifth of the electricity generated in the US, making advancements in solid-state lighting crucial to corralling our energy consumption as a nation.  Recent research, however, has revealed that new materials are now being used to boost the efficiency of blue organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). New, more efficient host materials for the blue phosphorescent OLED have been designed, developed and tested by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory scientists. By using new host materials, scientists have been able to improve the efficiency by at least 25 percent and have...Read full article
