Abstract

The present invention relates to organic light-emitting devices comprising (a) an anode, (i) a cathode, and (e) an emitting layer between the anode and cathode, comprising 2 to 40% by weight of a triplet emitter X having a difference of the singlet energy (E(X)) and the triplet energy (E(X)) of less than or equal to 0.4 eV [Δ(E(X))−(E(X))≤0.4 eV], 0.05 to 5.0% by weight of a fluorescent emitter Y and 55 to 97.95% by weight of a host compound(s), wherein the amount of the triplet emitter X, the fluorescent emitter Y and the host compound(s) adds up to a total of 100% by weight and the singlet energy of the triplet emitter X (E(X)) is greater than the singlet energy of the fluorescent emitter Y (E(Y)) [(E(X))>E(Y)]. By doping, for example, an emitting layer containing a luminescent organometallic complex having a small S-Tsplitting, with a fluorescent emitter the emission decay time can significantly be shortened without sacrificing external quantum efficiency (EQE) because of very efficient energy transfer.
