A Comprehensive Source for Taking on the Next Stage of OLED R&DOLED Fundamentals: Materials, Devices, and Processing of Organic Light-Emitting Diodes brings together key topics across the field of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), from fundamental chemistry and physics to practical materials science and engineering aspects to design and ma

Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (TADF-OLEDs) comprehensively introduces the history of TADF, along with a review of fundamental concepts. Then, TADF emitters with different colors, such as blue, green, red and NIR as well as white OLEDs are discussed in detail. Other sections cover exciplex-type TADF materials, emerging application of TADF emitters as a host in OLEDs, and applications of TADF materials in organic lasers and biosensing. - Discusses green, blue, red, NIR and white TADF emitters and their design strategies for improved performance for light-emitting diode applications - Addresses emerging materials, such as molecular and exciplex-based TADF materials - Includes emerging applications like lasers and biosensors

In the near future, organic semiconductors may be used in a variety of products, including flat-screen TVs, e-book readers, and third-generation organic photovoltaics applications, to name just a few. While organic electronics has received increased attention in scientific journals, those working in this burgeoning field require more in-depth cover

The book Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) Toward Smart Lighting and Displays Technologies, edited by Laxman Singh, Rituraj Dubey, and Prof. R. N. Rai, strives to address the multiple aspects of OLEDs and their applications in developing smart lightings and displays. OLEDs have been used in almost all kinds of digital displays like those of mobile phones, laptops, tablets, phablets, TVs, etc., due to their outstanding features, including superior color quality, low cost, wide viewing angle, easy fabrication, mercury-free manufacture, tenability, stretchability, flexibility, etc. Investigations related to the synthesis of new organic materials and fabrication techniques have inspired us to write this book, which will fulfil the desire and thirst of OLEDs-based researchers. Features Nanolithographic techniques used and the challenges involved Printing technology for fabrication Designing of hybrid perovskites Stretchable and flexible materials used Metal–dielectric composites and efficiency of organic semiconductor via molecular doping for OLEDs applications Organic small molecule materials and display technologies involved New generation of organic materials with respect to photophysical approach Mixed valence π-conjugated coordination polymers used Electroluminescent polymer used Blue fluorescent and phosphorescent organic materials used In comparison to other books available related to similar topics, this book aims at those audiences who are looking for a single source for a comprehensive understanding of strategies and their challenges with respect to material fabrication of OLEDs. This book covers the pace and productivity at a uniform level in each chapter with respect to the audiences, from doctoral student to postdoctoral researchers or from postdoctoral researchers to multidisciplinary field researchers with a background in physics, chemistry, materials science, and engineering, who are already working with organic materials and their applications.

This book presents a critical perspective of the applications of organometallic compounds (including those with metal or metalloid elements) and other related metal complexes as versatile functional materials in the transformation of light into electricity (solar energy conversion) and electricity into light (light generation in light emitting diode), in the reduction of carbon dioxide to useful chemicals, as well as in the safe and efficient production and utilization of hydrogen, which serves as an energy storage medium (i.e. energy carrier). This book focuses on recent research developments in these emerging areas, with an emphasis on fundamental concepts and current applications of functional organometallic complexes and related metal-based molecules for energy research. With contributions from front-line researchers in the field from academia and industry, this timely book provides a valuable contribution to the scientific community in the field of energy science related to metal-based molecular materials.
