Articles

The soaring global demand for energy has created an urgent need for new energy sources that are both cost-competitive and eco-friendly.

Plexcore® organic conductive inks are electronic grade inks formulated for use in the hole injection layers of OLEDs.

In this article, we demonstrate that bis-styrylbenzene derivatives show promising characteristics for very low lasing thresholds and discuss the design considerations for organic lasing molecules.

Since their discovery, organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) have evolved from a scientific curiosity into a technology with applications in flat panel displays and the potential to revolutionize the lighting market. During their relatively short history, the technology has rapidly advanced, and device efficiencies have increased more than 20-fold, approaching the theoretical limit for internal quantum efficiencies.
