    The document discusses Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLEDs). It defines an OLED as an electronic device made of organic thin films between two conductors that emits bright light when electricity is applied. It describes the basic OLED structure and how OLEDs emit light when electrons meet electron holes at the boundary between emissive and conductive layers. It also outlines different types of OLEDs including passive matrix, active matrix, transparent, top-emitting, flexible, and white OLEDs. Finally, it covers advantages like thinner size, lower power consumption, and larger sizes, as well as disadvantages like lifetime, manufacturing challenges, and vulnerability to water.

    What is an OLED?

    An OLED is an electronic device made by placing a series of organic thin films between two conductors. When electrical current is applied, a bright light is emitted.
    A device that is 100 to 500 nanometers thick or about 200 times smaller than a human hair.

    The OLED Structure

    How OLEDs Emit Light

    The battery or power supply of the device containing the OLED applies a voltage across the OLED. An electrical current flows from the cathode to the anode through the organic layers. (an electrical current is a flow of electrons) At the boundary between the emissive and the conductive layers, electrons find electron holes. The OLED emits light.
