LIGHT EMITTING DIODE AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18347995 titled 'LIGHT EMITTING DIODE AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a light emitting diode (LED) with improved light extraction efficiency and emission efficiency properties.
- The LED includes a first electrode, a hole transport region, an emission layer, an electron transport region, and a second electrode.
- The hole transport region consists of three layers: a first hole transport layer, a second hole transport layer, and a third hole transport layer.
- The first hole transport layer is adjacent to the first electrode and has a first refractive index.
- The second hole transport layer is adjacent to the emission layer and has a second refractive index.
- The third hole transport layer is located between the first and second hole transport layers and has a third refractive index, which is greater than both the first and second refractive indices.
- This configuration results in high light extraction efficiency and high emission efficiency for the LED.
Original Abstract Submitted
A light emitting diode of an embodiment includes a first electrode, a hole transport region disposed on the first electrode, an emission layer disposed on the hole transport region, an electron transport region disposed on the emission layer, and a second electrode disposed on the electron transport region. The hole transport region includes a first hole transport layer disposed adjacent to the first electrode and having a first refractive index, a second hole transport layer disposed adjacent to the emission layer and having a second refractive index, and a third hole transport layer disposed between the first hole transport layer and the second hole transport layer and having a third refractive index which is greater than each of the first refractive index and the second refractive index, thereby showing high light extraction efficiency and high emission efficiency properties.
