Light modulation of top emission organic light emitting diodes showing strong microcavity effect by applying multilayered scattering film

In order to suppress the viewing angle dependence of top emission organic light emitting diodes (TEOEDs) on a strong microcavity structure, we prepared multi-layered nano scattering film which was consisted with transparent planarizing layer and hazy crosslinked scattering layer. Through such an approach, we could obtain not only a stable color shift and luminance distribution with viewing angle but also a negligible pixel blur level. Meanwhile, we investigated a black tint level of TEOLEDs after attachment of circular polarizer (CP) on various nano scattering films because nano scattering film deteriorates a black level. We found that the black level could be improved from the black tint by reducing the refractive index difference between planarizing layer and scattering layer.
