We investigated efficient hybrid white organic light emitting diodes (WOLEDs) apply to triplet harvesting (TH) concept based on three complementary colors by mixing containing blue fluorescent emitter with phosphorescent emitters. The TH is to transfer these triplet excitons from a fluorescence to a phosphorescence, where they can decay radiatively. We fabricated several hybrid WOLEDs, having various emitting layer structures with blue fluorescent emitter and red, green phosphorescent emitter.

In this paper, we fabricated tri-metal layered thin film semitransparent electrodes consisting of a thin conductive metal layer, sandwiched between two nickel layers. An equal red phosphorescent organic light-emitting diode (PHOLED) structure was deposited on the anodes of indium tin oxide (ITO) and three types of tri-metal layers (Ni/Al/Ni, Ni/Cu/Ni, and Ni/Ag/Ni, thickness of 3/7/3 nm in common) on a glass substrate. The optical and electrical performances of the device using Ni/Ag/Ni were improved more than the performances of the other devices due to the micro-cavity effect in accordance with the various electrode characteristics.

Phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) have shown a heterojunction system that is a bulk heterojunctioned emitting layer (EML). In our work, we have demonstrated an improvement in efficiency with a partial mixed host system in an EML. A mixed host system, which is mixed with a host material and an electron transporting material, was used on the red PHOLEDs.
