Abstract

OLED structures including an internal extraction layer are provided. The internal extraction layer includes a material having a refractive index that is higher than the refractive index of a transparent electrode in the device, and a non-planar interface disposed between the material and the substrate. Devices are also provided that include an external extraction layer having a non-planar surface which, when used in conjunction with an internal extraction layer, provides greatly improved outcoupling of light generated by the device.
