Abstract

An organic light emitting device (OLED) including: a substrate; a first electrode; a second electrode facing the first electrode; a first blue light emitting layer, a green light emitting layer, a red light emitting layer, and a second blue light emitting layer all interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode; and a color filter disposed in a path of light emitted from the light emitting layers, wherein the first blue light emitting layer includes a deep blue dopant, and the second blue light emitting layer includes a sky blue dopant.

Claims (41)

1. An organic light emitting device (OLED) comprising:

a substrate;

a first electrode on the substrate;

a second electrode facing the first electrode;

a first blue light emitting layer, a green light emitting layer, a red light emitting layer, and a second blue light emitting layer all interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode; and

a color filter disposed in a path of light emitted from the light emitting layers,

wherein the first blue light emitting layer comprises a deep blue dopant, and

the second blue light emitting layer comprises a sky blue dopant.

2. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the first blue light emitting layer further comprises a blue host, wherein the deep blue dopant is in an amount between about 2 and about 10 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the blue host.

3. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the second blue light emitting layer further comprises a blue host, wherein the deep blue dopant is in an amount between about 2 and about 10 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the blue host.

4. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the first blue light emitting layer, the green light emitting layer, the red light emitting layer, and the second blue light emitting layer are sequentially stacked between the first electrode and the second electrode.

5. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the deep blue dopant comprises 4′-N,N-diphenylaminostyryl-triphenyl (DPA-TP); 2,5,2′,5′-tetrastyryl-biphenyl (TSB); an anthracene derivative; and/or diphenyl-4-2-(1,1-; 4,1-terphenyl-4-yl-vinyl-phenyl)amine.

6. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the sky blue dopant comprises p-bis(p-N,N′-diphenyl-aminostyryl)benzene and/or phenyl cyclopentadiene.

7. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the first blue light emitting layer has a thickness between about 5 and about 10 nm.

8. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the second blue light emitting layer has a thickness between about 5 and about 7 nm.

9. The OLED of claim 1 , further comprising at least one of a hole injection layer or a hole transport layer between the first electrode and the first blue light emitting layer.

10. The OLED of claim 1 , further comprising an electron transport layer and an electron injection layer between the second blue light emitting layer and the second electrode.

11. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the OLED is a top-emission type OLED, and the OLED is coated with an encapsulation film, and the color filter is on the encapsulation film.

12. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the OLED is a top-emission type OLED comprising an encapsulation substrate on the second electrode, and wherein the color filter is between the second electrode and the encapsulation substrate.

13. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the OLED is a top-emission type OLED comprising an encapsulation substrate on the second electrode, and wherein the color filter is on a surface of the encapsulation substrate not in contact with the second electrode.

14. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the OLED is a bottom-emission type OLED, and wherein the color filter is between the substrate and the first electrode.

15. An organic light emitting device (OLED) comprising:

a first electrode;

a first blue light emitting layer on the first electrode;

a non-blue light emitting layer on the first blue emitting layer;

a second blue light emitting layer on the non-blue light emitting layer;

a second electrode on the second blue light emitting layer; and

a color filter disposed in a path of light emitted from the light emitting layers,

wherein the first blue light emitting layer comprises a deep blue dopant, and

the second blue light emitting layer comprises a sky blue dopant.

16. The OLED of claim 15 , wherein the non-blue light emitting layer comprises a green light emitting layer and a red light emitting layer.

17. An organic light emitting device (OLED) comprising:

a first electrode;

a deep blue light emitting layer on the first electrode;

a green light emitting layer on the deep blue emitting layer;

a red light emitting layer on the green light emitting layer;

a sky blue light emitting layer on the red light emitting layer;

a second electrode on the sky blue light emitting layer; and

a color filter disposed in a path of light emitted from the light emitting layers.

18. The OLED of claim 1 , wherein the sky blue dopant comprises a material exhibiting a peak at a wavelength equal to or greater than 470 nm.

19. The OLED of claim 1 , further comprising an electron transport layer, wherein the first blue light emitting layer, the green light emitting layer, the red light emitting layer, the second blue light emitting layer, and the electron transport layer are sequentially stacked adjacent to one another.
