• We demonstrate photonic crystal based OLEDs with a distortion-free and a highly improved out-coupling performance.
• The micro-lens array applied OLEDs with PC structure at the same time, the spectrum distortion were reduced.
• At the reduced pitch size of PC and MLA, the spectrum distortion were reduced but efficiency were increased.
• Through the laser interference lithography, maskless, simple and low-cost process to fabricate nano-pattern can be achieved.
Out-coupling enhanced organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with micro-lens arrays and a nano-scale periodic light-extraction structure—a photonic crystal (PC)—utilizing laser interference lithography (LIL) are demonstrated. Generally, PC-based OLEDs suffer from a distorted and shifted spectrum, despite a highly improved intensity. However, in this study, we demonstrate PC-based OLEDs with a distortion-free spectrum and a highly improved out-coupling performance. It was found that spectrum distortion decreased with the pitch size of the PC. The PC-based OLED with a 250 nm pitch size showed a dramatically reduced spectral shift: International Commission on Illumination 1931 color coordinate of (Δ0.00, Δ0.00) and Δpeak wavelength of 0 nm as compared with the reference. Simultaneously, the external quantum efficiency and the power efficiency were enhanced by up to 178% and 264%, respectively, as compared with the reference. Moreover, through the LIL, simple and maskless processes were achieved for a light-extraction structure over a large area.
