Abstract

An organic light emitting device (e.g., a display device or a lighting device) is described, which includes a substrate; and an OLED over the substrate, the organic light emitting diode comprising: a cathode; an anode over the cathode; and an organic light emitting layer including a first emitting part, a second emitting part between the first emitting part and the anode and a third emitting part between the first and second emitting parts. The first emitting part includes a first EML, a p-doping layer between the cathode and the first EML, an n-doping layer between the first EML and the p-doping layer and a first ETL between the first EML and the n-doping layer. The second emitting part includes a second EML, and the third emitting part includes a third EML. The p-doping layer includes an HTL and first and second p-doping layers at both sides of the HTL, respectively.
