Abstract: Arrangements and techniques for providing organic emissive layers are provided, in which the emissive layer includes a first dopant having a dissociative energy level. A second dopant in the emissive layer provides a solid state sink energy level, to which doubly excited excitons and/or polarons may transition instead of to the dissociative energy level, thereby decreasing the undesirable effects of transitions to the dissociative energy level.

Abstract: The present invention relates to efficient organic light emitting devices (OLEDs). More specifically, the present invention relates to white-emitting OLEDs, or WOLEDs. The devices of the present invention employ three emissive sub-elements, typically emitting red, green and blue, to sufficiently cover the visible spectrum. The sub-elements are separated by charge generating layers.

Abstract: There is disclosed ultrahigh-efficiency single- and multi-junction thin-film solar cells. This disclosure is also directed to a substrate-damage-free epitaxial lift-off (“ELO”) process that employs adhesive-free, reliable and lightweight cold-weld bonding to a substrate, such as bonding to plastic or metal foils shaped into compound parabolic metal foil concentrators. By combining low-cost solar cell production and ultrahigh-efficiency of solar intensity-concentrated thin-film solar cells on foil substrates shaped into an integrated collector, as described herein, both lower cost of the module as well as significant cost reductions in the infrastructure is achieved.

Abstract: A first device is provided. The first device includes an organic light emitting device, which further comprises a first electrode, a second electrode, and an organic emissive layer disposed between the first and second electrode. Preferably, the second electrode is more transparent than the first electrode. The organic emissive layer has a first portion shaped to form an indentation in the direction of the first electrode, and a second portion shaped to form a protrusion in the direction of the second electrode. The first device may include a plurality of organic light emitting devices. The indentation may have a shape that is formed from a partial sphere, a partial cylinder, a pyramid, or a pyramid with a mesa, among others. The protrusions may be formed between adjoining indentations or between an indentation and a surface parallel to the substrate.

Abstract: Light-emitting devices are provided that include a mixed-index layer having a buried grid disposed below a bottom electrode of the device. The grid provides improved outcoupling into glass and air modes relative to techniques that omit such a grid and/or that use a conventional low-index grid embedded in the emissive layers of the device.

Abstract: An OLED device includes an OLED structure having a curved shape and/or a concave surface. The OLED structure may function both as light source and as a reflector configured to concentrate light produced by the structure. An OLED may be formed in the shape of a reflector so that light is provided at the concave surface and so that light is reflected from the concave surface at the same location along the surface. The OLED structure can include a flexible substrate formed to shape, along with an organic layer and electrode layers coated over a substrate surface either before or after the substrate is formed. The OLED structure may also include a microcavity OLED, a grating layer, and/or one or more optical elements that alter the characteristics of the light emitted at an aperture of the structure.
