Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Generally, the devices provided herein comprise at least a hole-transport layer, two light-emitting layers, and an electron-transport layer, each having a highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level and a lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy level, wherein at least one of the HOMO energy levels and/or the LUMO energy levels of at least one of the light-emitting layers does not decrease in a stepwise fashion.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An organic light-emitting device comprising: a cathode, an anode, and a series of organic layers disposed between the anode and the cathode, wherein the series of organic layers comprises: a first light-emitting layer deposited between the anode and the cathode, wherein the first light-emitting layer comprises a first host material and a first emissive material; a hole-transport layer, disposed between the anode and the first light-emitting layer; a sec…
