Abstract : An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) consists of several semiconducting organic layers sandwiched between two electrodes, at least one of them being transparent. OLEDs can provide brighter, crisper displays on electronic devices and use less power than conventional light-emitting diodes (LEDs) or liquid crystal displays (LCDs) used today. OLEDs are made by placing thin films of organic materials between two conductors. When electrical current is applied, a bright light is emitted. The OLED materials emit light and do not require a backlight . Each pixel is a small light-emitting diode, in fact. OLEDs emit light they do not require a backlight and so are thinner and more efficient than LCD displays .In this paper we investigate the different types of OLEDs.
