We fabricated white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) with three emissive layers consisting
of a phosphorescent and two fluorescent materials. The fabricated device structure was ITO /
NPB(40 nm) / 1 % Ir(ppy)3:CBP(5 nm) / DPVBi(10 nm) /BCP (3 nm)/ 1 % DCM1 : CBP(5
nm) / BCP(10 nm) / Alq3(30 nm) / Liq(2 nm) / Al. In this device, the thin BCP between the
DPVBi and the 2 % DCM1 played the role of retarding the hole flow from the DPVBi layer to the
2 % DCM1 : CBP layer, resulting in a white emission due to the strong blue emission of DPVBi.
The device showed an improved white balance with Commission Internationale d’Eclairage (CIE)
coordinates of (0.278, 0.371) and a reduced maximum luminance of 3,440 cd/m2 while the device
without the thin BCP layer showed CIE coordinates of (0.311, 0.417) and a maximum luminance
of 4,510 cd/m2.
