  • Patent number: 9297504
    Abstract: A luminaire for general lighting includes an illuminant having a first light emission surface and a second light emission surface. The illuminant includes an organic, light-generating region. The first light emission surface and the second light emission surface are arranged at two mutually opposite main surfaces of the illuminant. A first light emerges at the first light emission surface during the operation of the illuminant, and a second light emerges at the second light emission surface during the operation of the illuminant. The first light and the second light differ from one another with regard to color and/or color temperature. The first light and the second light leave the luminaire in mutually different emission directions.

  • Patent number: 9276223
    Abstract: The invention relates to novel metal-organic materials for hole injection layers in organic electronic components. For example, in light-emitting components such as organic light diodes (OLED) or organic light-emitting electrochemical cells (OLEEC) or organic field effect transistors or organic solar cells or organic photo detectors. Luminescence (cd/m2), efficiency (cd/A), and service life (h) of organic electronic components such as from organic light diodes in particular are highly dependent on the exciton thickness in the light-emitting layer and on the quality of the charge carrier injection and are also limited by same, among other things. The invention relates to a hole injection layer consisting of quadratic planar mononuclear transition metal complexes such as copper 2+ complexes, for example, which are embedded into a hole-conducting matrix.
