Abstract

A system for displaying images is provided. The system includes a full-color organic electroluminescent device having an anode. A first emitting layer and a second emitting layer are sequentially disposed on the anode. A cathode is disposed on the second emitting layer. The first and second emitting layers include, respectively, a first dopant and a second dopant, wherein the energy gap of the first dopant is different from that of the second dopant.

Claims (18)

1. A system for displaying images, comprising:

a full-color organic electroluminescent device, comprising:

a first electrode;

a first emitting layer, a second emitting layer, and a third emitting layer, sequentially disposed on the first electrode, wherein the first emitting layer has a first dopant doped therein, the second emitting layer has a second dopant doped therein, the third emitting layer has a third dopant doped therein, and the energy gap E 1 of the first dopant, the energy gap E 2 of the second dopant, and the energy gap E 3 of the third dopant are different from one another;

a blocking layer, wherein the blocking layer is disposed between the first emitting layer and the second emitting layer and the second emitting layer directly contacts the third emitting layer, or the blocking layer is disposed between the second emitting layer and the third emitting layer and the first emitting layer directly contacts the second emitting layer; and

a second electrode, disposed on the third emitting layer.

2. The system for displaying images as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the blocking layer comprises a bipolar material, a hole transporting material, or an electron transporting material.

3. The system for displaying images as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the full-color organic electroluminescent device further comprises a third dopant doped in the first emitting layer or the second emitting layer, wherein the energy gap El of the first dopant, the energy gap E 2 of the second dopant, and the energy gap El of the third dopant are defined by the following equations: E1 >E3>E2 or E2>E3>E1.

4. The system for displaying images as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the full-color organic electroluminescent device further comprises a blocking layer formed between the first emitting layer and the second emitting layer.

5. The system for displaying images as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the third dopant is doped in the first emitting layer, and the energy gaps of the first, second, and third dopants are defined by the following equations: |E1 -E31|<|E 2 -E3|.

6. The system for displaying images as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the difference between the energy gap E 1 of the first dopant and the energy gap E 3 of the third dopant is not more than 0.5 eV.

7. The system for displaying images as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the third dopant is doped in the second emitting layer, and the energy gaps of the first, second, and third dopants are defined by the following equations: |E1-E3|>|E2-E3|.

8. The system for displaying images as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the difference between the energy gap E 2 of the second dopant and the energy gap E 3 of the third dopant is not more than 0.5 eV.

9. The system for displaying images as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

an electronic device, wherein the electronic device comprises:

a flat panel device, wherein the flat panel device comprises the full-color organic electroluminescent device; and

an input unit coupled to the flat panel device to provide input to the flat panel device such that the flat panel device displays images.

10. The system for displaying images as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the electronic device is a mobile phone, a digital camera, a personal digital assistant, a notebook computer, a desktop computer, a television, a car display, or a portable DVD player.
