Electron injector cuts the
cost of making OLEDs
Patented electron injector reduces OLED manufacturing costs thanks to its low temperature deposition using vacuum coating methods
OLED-T, a developer and manufacturer of world-class organic light emitting diode (OLED) materials and device structures, today unveiled its patented electron injector - EEI-101. EEI-101 is suitable for use with fluorescent or phosphorescent red, green and blue OLEDs and reduces OLED manufacturing costs thanks to its low temperature deposition using vacuum coating methods.

Electron injector improves OLED performance
EI-101 is a low temperature direct replacement for lithium floride (LiF), the material typically used by OLED display manufactures as the electron injector layer within an OLED display
The lower deposition temperature also reduces any potential damage to the underlying organic layers, thereby improving the lifetime of the OLED device.
EEI-101 evaporates at 295C as opposed to lithium fluoride (LiF) which requires a temperature over 580C, thus making deposition faster and reducing energy consumption.
This can simplify the construction of the evaporation equipment leading to a significant cost reduction, thereby reducing overall production overheads for display manufacturers.
'For OLED technology to reach its potential, it is important for materials manufacturers to ensure that production costs are as low as possible', said Myrddin Jones, Chief Executive Officer at OLED-T.
'EEI-101 is as effective as LiF in all respects for display performance, but its lower temperature of deposition means that it is a more attractive and cost effective proposition for display manufacturers to use in mass-production'.
'In addition, by reducing the exposure of the sensitive organic layers to high temperature it has the potential to improve the lifetime of the display'.
Available in kilogram quantities, EEI-101 is provided in a powder form which can be deposited onto any desired substrate by vacuum coating methods.
