In this paper we propose a framework to enhance light extraction efficiency in white organic light emitting diodes (WOLED) using photonic crystal (PhC) structures sandwiched between indium tin oxide (ITO, nITO = 1.8+0.01i) and glass (nglass = 1.51) substrate, according to the high refractive index contrast of these two layers almost 50% of the generated light inside WOLED gets trapped in the mentioned interface. The main purpose of this article is to suggest a method to intentionally optimize PhC structures to reduce total internal reflections (TIR) happening at ITO/glass interface. Here three different patterns are considered including rectangular, hexagonal and circular lattices. Using Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method and the presented framework for choosing structural parameters the portion of 50% trapped light in ITO was reduced to 20% which is a large enhancement in extraction efficiency of WOLED. Also far-field results before and after adding PhCs are investigated.
