Abstract
An organic electroluminescent device comprises an anode; a cathode; a first electroluminescent layer between the anode and the cathode comprising an electron transporting material; and a second electroluminescent layer between the first electroluminescent layer and the anode. The second electroluminescent layer comprises a hole transporting material and an electroluminescent electron trapping material. The first electroluminescent layer may comprises a polymer having an electron transporting material and an electroluminescent material, and may include an optionally electroluminescent hole-transporting material. The electron transporting material and one or both of the hole transporting material of the first electroluminescent layer and the electroluminescent material of the first electroluminescent layer are part of the same molecule or polymer. Preferably, the electron transporting material comprises a plurality of adjacent arylene repeat units.
