I. INTRODUCTION
[1] We discussed the upcoming technology which hit the
market. The most famous invention in science which
contributes to the great measure of today's life that is none
another than OLED technology. OLED (Organic Light
Emitting Diode) Technology means, its ability to emit light
but the difference in the process like LCD technology. LCD
which is dependent on the backlight to create light. As a
move to the mechanistic behind the OLED is an emission of
light. OLED light is emitted from a small OLED pixel, unlike
the LCD which doesn't Support the backlight technique
with the help of a very small pixel.[2] A layer of organic
material sandwiched between two conductors (cathode and
anode), which have a glass top plate (seal) and glass bottom
plate.
When an electric current is applied between the two
conductors of bright electron luminescent light produced
from organic material. The OLED is very dynamic in nature
when it comes to light. It emits the light range between 0%
to 100% light. [3]With the help of color film, OLED utilizes
three subpixels that are red, green, blue to produce any
desired color including white.

As the move to the structure of OLED, OLED Consist of 5
layers, Substrate(PET), Emissive Layer, Electron
Transporting layer(polypyridine), the cathode. As every
technology has pons and cons. Hence OLED has Some cons
which effect the technology of OLED.
A. The lifetime of blue OLED is Shorter.
B. Expensive.
C. Susceptible to water.
II. DEGRADATION OF OLED
[2]Degradation Occur between the collection of the non-
radiative recombination centers and luminescence quench
in the emissive breakdown in the emissive zone. The
chemical breakdown in the semiconductor followed by the
four steps.
1. Recombination of charge carrier through the
absorption of UV light.
2. Hemolytic fission.
3. Successive radical addition that forms Pi radial.
4. Disproportional between two radicals resulting in
hydrogen-atom transfer reactions.
The major concerned of Blue OLED is lifetime limitation so
the lifetime of organic LED depends on the Degradation of
organic material, So yet to analysis the mechanism behind
the degradation.
In the analysis of the OLED, it finds that a binary mixture of
wide bandgap and novel metal Ir(III) complex dopant
having N-hetero-cyclo carbonic ligands is formed. The
mechanism behind the formation reveals that the charge-
neutral generation of polar pair by electron movement
from dopant to host excitation[4].
The distruction of the radical ion pair occurs by the charged
ions pair occur by the charge recombination process which
leads to bond cleavage.
Device lifetime depends on the linearity to the destruction
of radical ions pair. The short lifetimes of devices caused by
the accumulation of chemical defects result from
permanent degradation of organics material during device
operation. Organics material involves radical species as a
byproduct of the intermediate reaction. The radical species
deteriorated device performed by trapping of charge
carrier through the non-reactive recombination process of
hole and electron excitation polaron. A common technique
used to determine the degradation pathways and reaction
products in OLED is MOLDI-TOF-MS. Using this technique it
is possible to derive a common pathway for OLED
degradation based On:-

a) The dissociation of Ir emitter
b) Formation of a complex of the individual
fragments with the hole blocking layer.
Reaction behind the degradation of the OLED :-
Figure :- Purposed Mechanism of the dissociation of
phosphorescent blue emitter FLRPIC
[5]The above reaction shows the degradation of
phosphorescent blue emitter flrpic dissociated into two
pathways – reversible and irreversible. The fragmentation
comes if the contact of the blocking material either with
TPBi or with the charged complex BPhen +Cs and builds the
final fragmentation process[6].
III. IMPROVEMENT OF LIFE SPAN OF OLED.
By adding a layer of lithium contain a molecule to thermally
activated delayed fluorescent material is used to increase
the device life cycle.
The OLED companies developed the molecule to convert
electricity into light with the potential of the OLED.
According to the new researchers, data TADF devices lost
5% of brightness after using of 85hr[9].
We extended that 8 times by simple modification in their
structure.[10]
The newly developed modification was put to an extremely
thin (1-3nm)layer of a lithium-containing molecule like
each side of the hole blocking layer.
The layer brings an electron to TADF material.in this case,
green emitter 4czIPAN preventing hole for the existing
device before contributing to emission.
Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence (TADF) [7] is
a process through which a molecular species in a non-
emitting excited state can incorporate surrounding thermal
energy to change states and only then undergo light
emission.
Figure :- Photoluminescence pathways and
associated energy levels.
The TADF process involves an excited molecular species in
a triplet state, which commonly has a forbidden transition
to the ground state termed phosphorescence. By absorbing
nearby thermal energy the triplet state can undergo
reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) converting it to
a singlet state, which can then de-excite to the ground state
and emit light in a process termed fluorescence.

1,2,3,5-Tetrakis(carbazol-9-yl)-4,6-dicyanobenzene
(4CzIPN) is a typical donor–acceptor fluorophore, with
carbazolyl as an electron donor and dicyanobenzene as an
electron acceptor.
For the rest, the lifetime of OLED is increased significantly,
if the blocking material are used which do not form
complex with the Ir emitter.i.e-use of hole blocking
layer,BAlq(bis-2-methyl-1-8-quinolinolato)-4-(phenyl-
phenolato)aluminium-(III), instead of BPhen was shown to
yield extremely long-living red OLEDs Extrapolated
lifetimes of more than 10 at an initial brightness of
100cd/m-square were reached.
IV. Future Scope:-
Research and development in OLEDs have resulted in
future applications like dashboards and in flexible
displays[11]. Video images seem more realistic and
updated. Yet, it needs to be improved to prevent image
sticking. OLED still has many challenges like the price and
lifetime, high production costs, longevity issues for colours
or sensitivity to water vapour.[12] The OLED technology
displays are just entering the market that's why their
production costs and the OLED prices are high as compared
to plasma and LCD because their existence forms many
years. As you can see, in technical terms, OLED technology
has great potential and suggests a very wide range of
applications. In the years 2005 and 2006, the breakthrough
of OLED technology in displays had revenue of $832 million
and $1.2 billion respectively. The improvement of the blue
light of the OLED explains in the above mechanism. With
the above method, we can expand or prolong the life of the
material. The fluorescent and phosphorescence are the two
pathways to increase the lifespan of the materials.
V. CONCLUSION:-
OLED is the new display technique used to create thin,
reliability and display quality, since the 1990s and has
many advantages, the emerging of OLEDs has been one of
the most promising technology due to their advantages
over LCDs like high contrast ratio and wide viewing angles
like 170 degrees or fast response time. In the OLED
technology, we maximize the efficiency of the blue OLED
materials and also raise that upper bar and the lower bar
materials, available in cheap price production of OLED and
create great pictures quality as well. It is the most
appropriate as compared to LCD and PLASMA technology
