CX-020113: Novel Blue Phosphorescent Emitter Materials for OLEO Lighting

Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLEO) panels manufactured for solid state lighting (SSL) currently use red and green phosphorescent emitter materials to achieve high light producing efficiency. However, less efficient blue fluorescent emitter materials are still used to achieve suitable stability for commercial applications. The department of energy SSL program has identified highly efficient and stable blue emitter materials as a major opportunity to advance the performance and subsequently commercial applications for OLEO SSL panels. To address the blue emitter technology gap and product market opportunities, R-Display & Lighting (RDL) has developed a new class of highly efficient phosphorescent emitters designed for improved panel operational stability.
