  • Publication number: 20100179469
    Abstract: A lighting system includes a plurality of organic light emitting diode (OLED) devices. By selecting the plurality of OLED devices, or by selectively controlling the plurality of OLED devices, the color characteristics of the lighting system can be tuned. The lifespan of the lighting system can be improved.

  • Patent number: 7569159
    Abstract: Compositions for use in HIL/HTL applications include intrinsically conductive polymer, planarizing agent, and dopant, which are soluble in non-aqueous solvents. Block copolymers of regioregular alkyl/alkoxy- and aryl-substituted polythiophenes can be used. The compositions can be formed into thin films. Excellent efficiency and lifetime stability can be achieved.

  • Patent number: 7321133
    Abstract: Regio-regular polythiophenes used in diodes which are not light emitting or photovoltaic. High quality, processable thin film polymer films can be made. The thin film can have a thickness of about 50 nm to about one micron, and the conductive thin film can be applied by spin casting, drop casting, screening, ink-jetting, transfer or roll coating. The polythiophenes can be homopolymers or copolymers. The regio-regular poly(3-substitutedthiophene) can be derivatized so that the 3-substituent is an alkyl, aryl, or alkyl/aryl moiety with a heteroatom substitution in either the ?- or beta-position of the 3-substituent.
