A team from the University of Ulsan, in Korea, claim to have developed a way to raise OLED efficiency by 3,000%!
The research team was able to raise efficiency of iridium-doped phosphorescent emitters by strengthening their molecular structure. This was accomplished by synthesising molecules. The two carborane units in the new emitter molecule are tethered by an alkaline linker.
Findings were published in the ACS journal: http://tinyurl.com/nml9nj9.
Analyst Comment
The University of Ulsan has links with Samsung, so we may see work continued on this technology soon. (TA)
