Abstract:
The light extraction efficiency in organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) is enhanced by up to 2.6 times when a close-packed, hemispherical transparent polymer microlens array (MLA) is molded on the light-emitting surface of a top-emitting device. The microlens array helps to extract the waveguided optical emission in the organic layers and the transparent top electrode, and can be manufactured in large area with low cost.
