Abstract

Organic light emitting devices are self-emitting light source based on radiative decay of exciton generated by the carrier recombination on an organic molecule, and utilized for various applications. The device efficiency has been improved drastically in recent a couple of decades. This chapter deals with the mechanism and materials of the devices and the improvement in luminance efficiency.
