  • Patent number: 10490761
    Abstract: A light-emitting component provides an emitter layer including phosphorescent and fluorescent emitter materials, and at least one predefined first and second display regions. The first region has both emitter materials. The second region has the phosphorescent emitter material. A first electromagnetic radiation is emitted upon the transition from the first excited state to the ground state of the phosphorescent emitter material. A second electromagnetic radiation is emitted upon the transition from the excited state to the ground state of the fluorescent emitter material. The excited state of the fluorescent emitter material is occupied by an energy transfer from the second excited state of the phosphorescent emitter material to the excited state of the fluorescent emitter material so that a mixed light composed of first and second electromagnetic radiations is emittable from the first region, and the light that is emittable from the second region is free of second electromagnetic radiation.

  • Publication number: 20180145274
    Abstract: The invention relates to an organic emitter layer (100) having organic emitter molecules (1), each of which has at least one excited triplet state (SE1) and at least one excited singlet state (TE1). The emitter layer (100) comprises an organic matrix material (10) with first matrix molecules (2), the first matrix molecules (2) having at least one excited triplet state (TA1) and at least one excited singlet state (SA1). The emitter molecules (1) are embedded into the matrix material (10). During the operation of the emitter layer (100), the triplet states and the singlet states of the first matrix molecules (2) are excited, and the excitation energy is then transferred to the emitter molecules such that the singlet states are excited in the emitter molecules. A transition occurs from the singlet states of the emitter molecules (1) into the base state (SE0), thereby at least partially emitting electromagnetic radiation.
