Abstract

The invention relates to an organic electroluminescent component having a first organic functional stack ( 1 ), which has a first electroluminescent layer ( 11 ) and at least one n-doped organic layer ( 12 ), and a second organic functional stack ( 2 ), which has a second electroluminescent layer ( 21 ) and at least one p-doped organic layer ( 23 ), wherein the n-doped and the p-doped organic layers ( 12, 23 ) are arranged between the first and second electroluminescent layers ( 11, 21 ) and a metal layer ( 3 ) is arranged therebetween, directly adjacent to the n-doped and the p-doped organic layers ( 12, 23 ).

Claims (31)

1 . An organic electroluminescent component comprising:

a first organic functional stack, which has a first electroluminescent layer and at least one n-doped organic layer; and,

a second organic functional stack, which has a second electroluminescent layer and at least one p-doped organic layer,

wherein the n-doped and p-doped organic layers are arranged between the first and second electroluminescent layers, and a metal layer is arranged therebetween in a manner directly adjacent to the n-doped and p-doped organic layers.

2 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 1 , wherein the metal layer is floating.

3 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 1 , wherein the metal layer is not contact-connectable.

4 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 1 , wherein the metal layer comprises aluminum or silver or is composed thereof.

5 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 1 , wherein the metal layer is at least partly transparent.

6 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 1 , wherein the metal layer is non-transparent and reflective.

7 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 6 , wherein the first and second organic functional stacks are arranged between a first and a second electrode, and

wherein the first and second electrodes are transparent.

8 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 1 , wherein the metal layer is partly transparent and partly reflective.

9 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 8 , wherein the first and second organic functional stacks are arranged between a first and a second electrode, and

wherein the first electrode is transparent and the second electrode is reflective and non-transparent.

10 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 1 , further comprising a transparent first or second electrode having a layer comprising a transparent conductive oxide or a transparent metal layer.

11 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second organic functional stacks are arranged between a substrate and an encapsulation layer.

12 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 11 , wherein the encapsulation layer is embodied as thin-film encapsulation.

13 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 11 , wherein the encapsulation layer comprises a glass layer.

14 . The organic electroluminescent component according to claim 1 , wherein a light coupling-out element is arranged on a side of a transparent first or a second electrode that faces away from the metal layer.

15 . An organic electroluminescent component comprising:

a first organic functional stack, which has a first electroluminescent layer and at least one n-doped organic layer; and

a second organic functional stack, which has a second electroluminescent layer and at least one p-doped organic layer,

wherein the n-doped and p-doped organic layers are arranged between the first and second electroluminescent layers, and a metal layer is arranged therebetween in a manner directly adjacent to the n-doped and p-doped organic layers,

wherein the metal layer is floating and not contact-connectable, and

wherein the metal layer is non-transparent and reflective.

16 . An organic electroluminescent component comprising:

a first organic functional stack, which has a first electroluminescent layer and at least one n-doped organic layer; and

a second organic functional stack, which has a second electroluminescent layer and at least one p-doped organic layer,

wherein the n-doped and p-doped organic layers are arranged between the first and second electroluminescent layers, and a metal layer is arranged therebetween in a manner directly adjacent to the n-doped and p-doped organic layers,

wherein the metal layer is floating and not contact-connectable, and

wherein the metal layer is partly transparent and partly reflective.
