A light emitting photonic crystal having an organic light emitting diode and methods of making the same are disclosed. An organic light emitting diode disposed within a photonic structure having a band-gap, or stop-band, allows the photonic structure to emit light at wavelengths occurring at the edges of the band-gap. Photonic crystal structures that provide this function may include materials having a refractive index that varies.

Band edge emission enhanced organic light emitting diode with a localized emitter

Light emitting photonic crystals that comprise organic light emitting diodes and that are capable of emitting multiple wavelengths of light simultaneously and methods for fabricating the same are disclosed. Disclosed light emitting photonic crystals emit light at wavelengths at the two edges of a stop-band. Methods for adjusting the width of stop-bands of disclosed devices are also disclosed.

Band edge emission enhanced organic light emitting diode-based devices that emit multiple light wavelengths

Disclosed herein is a light emitting device and method of manufacturing such a device comprised of a series of photopolymerizable, chiral liquid crystalline layers that can be solvent cast on a substrate. The mixture of chiral materials in each successive layer may be blended in such a way that each layer has the same chiral pitch. Further the chiral materials in each layer may also be blended so that the ordinary and extraordinary refractive indices in each layer match the other layers such that the complete assembly of layers will optically function as a single relatively thick layer of chiral liquid crystal. The chiral nematic material in each layer can spontaneously adopt a helical structure with a helical pitch. The light emitting layers of the light emitting device can further comprise electroluminescent material that emits light into the band edge light propagation modes of the photonic crystal.

Light emitting electrochemical cell devices comprising chiral liquid crystalline materials. The chiral liquid crystalline material mixtures of the devices function as both electrolytes and as light emitting materials. The chiral liquid crystalline material mixtures also form photonic crystal structures creating a photonic stop band. The presence of the photonic stop band enables the light emitting electrochemical cell devices to emit light with improved energy efficiency.

Light emitting electrochemical cells with band-edge enhanced light emission due to chiral liquid crystalline structure

Disclosed herein are light emitting device that emit highly circularly polarized light. These devices may be used to form a dot-matrix display or an electronic information display comprised of a series of photopolymerizable, chiral liquid crystalline layers that can be solvent cast on a substrate. The mixture of chiral materials in each successive layer may be blended in such a way that each layer has the same chiral pitch and may also be blended so that the ordinary and extraordinary refractive indices in each layer match the other layers such that the complete assembly of layers will optically function as a single relatively thick layer of chiral liquid crystal. The chiral nematic material in each layer can spontaneously adopt a helical structure with a helical pitch. Further disclosed are pixel structures that not only emit light with brightness and chromaticity information, but also depth of focus information as well.

Circularly polarized light emitting organic light emitting diodes

Disclosed herein are head-mounted and other display assemblies that utilize organic light emitting diodes as image sources. In the organic light emitting diodes utilized in these display assemblies light is emitted by stimulated emission. As a result of this, the organic light emitting diodes utilized emit light vertically within a narrow cone about axes normal to the planes of the organic light emitting diodes. This narrow cone of emission results in greatly reduced light insertion losses when light transits from the organic light emitting diodes through the display assemblies and as a result increased energy efficiency in the operation of the display assemblies.

An active matrix light emitting display comprising an anode layer comprising a plurality of individual selectively energizable anodes, a cathode layer comprising a plurality of individual selectively energizable cathodes, an emitter layer for emitting light when energized disposed between the anode layer and the cathode layer, and a photoluminescent layer comprising a plurality of various color photoluminescent pixels, wherein a selected anode and a selected cathode are energizable to photoexcite a selected color pixel. A light emitting device comprising, a light emitting photonic crystal having organic electroluminescent emitter material disposed within the photonic crystal, and a photoluminescent material disposed upon a surface of the light emitting photonic crystal, such that light emitted by the light emitting photonic crystal causes photoexcitation within the photoluminescent material.
