- Fig. 1 shows an exemplary embodiment of a circuit for driving a stacked OLED (SOLED) structure 40.
- the SOLED structure of Fig. 1 includes three OLEDs, each emitting one of a red, green and blue light, represented by arrows labeled R, G and B, respectively.
- R, G and B the actual colors emitted is irrelevant.
- the primary colors red, green and blue are preferred in the typical display applications utilizing SOLEDs so as to allow all possible color combinations.
- a red OLED is shown stacked on a green OLED which in turn is stacked on a blue OLED, any order of stacking is possible.
- the SOLED 40 can be fabricated as disclosed in U.S. Patent Applications Serial Nos . 08/354,674 and 08/613,207, incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
- the circuit for driving the OLED stacked structure includes three drivers 10, 20 and 30 which can be implemented, as shown, with operational amplifiers (op-amps) .
- Each of the drivers 10, 20 and 30 has an input coupled to a terminal, B, G or R, respectively, to which is applied a control signal indicative of the desired brightness of the light to be emitted by a corresponding one of the OLEDs in the stacked OLED structure 40.
- the stacked OLED structure 40 is fabricated on a substrate 50 which is composed of a substantially transparent material such as glass.
- the bottom layer of the stacked structure 40 is an electrode layer 47.
- the electrode layer 47 acts as an anode and is coupled to ground.
- a first OLED which emits blue light is arranged over the electrode layer 47.
- the first OLED comprises a layer 46h of organic material which acts as a hole transporting layer (HTL) .
- the HTL 46h is deposited on the electrode layer 47.
- a further organic layer 46e which acts as an electron transporting layer (ETL) as well as an electroluminescent layer (EL) is deposited on the HTL 46h.
- ETL and EL can alternatively be implemented as two distinct layers.
- a semi- transparent electrode layer 45 is deposited on the ETL/EL 46e.
- a second OLED which emits green light is fabricated over the first OLED.
- the second OLED which is similar in fabrication to the first OLED, comprises a HTL 44h which is deposited on the electrode layer 45 and an ETL/EL 44e which is deposited on the HTL 44h.
- a semi-transparent electrode layer 43 is deposited on the ETL/EL 44e.
- a third OLED which emits red light is fabricated over the second OLED.
- the third OLED which is similar in fabrication to the first and second OLEDs, comprises a HTL 42h which is deposited on the electrode layer 43 and an ETL/EL 42e which is deposited on the HTL 42h.
- An opaque or semi-transparent electrode layer 41 is deposited on the ETL/EL 42e.
- the electrode 45 which lies between the first and second OLEDs, is coupled to the output of the driver 10.
- the driver 10 generates a voltage V B which drives the first OLED.
- the brightness of the blue light emitted by the first OLED is controlled by the magnitude of the voltage V B .
- the electrode 43 which lies between the second and third OLEDs, is coupled to the output of the driver 20.
- the driver 20 generates a voltage V G which in conjunction with the voltage V B determines the brightness of the green light emitted by the second OLED. More specifically, the brightness of the light emitted by the second OLED is a function of the voltage applied across the second OLED.
- the voltage applied across the second OLED is the voltage between the electrodes 43 and 45, or v G -v B .
- the electrode 41 which lies over the third OLED, is coupled to the output of the driver 30.
- the driver 30 generates a voltage V R which in conjunction with the voltage V G determines the brightness of the red light emitted by the third OLED.
- the brightness of the light emitted by the third OLED is a function of the voltage applied across the third OLED, namely, the voltage between the electrodes 41 and 43, or V R -V G .
- the op-amp 10 is configured so that the voltage V B generated by the op-amp 10 is equal or proportionate to the voltage of the control signal applied to the terminal B.
- the resistor 11 is coupled between an inverting input of the op-amp 10 and ground and the resistor 12 is coupled between the inverting input and the output of the op-amp 10.
- the closed-loop gain of the op-amp 10 thus configured is determined by the values of the resistors 11 and 12. More specifically:
- V B (1 + R 12 /R 11 )V(B) ,
- the op-amp 20 can be configured so that the voltage V G generated by the op-amp 20 can be made proportionate to the sum of V B and the voltage applied to the terminal G (V(G)).
- the terminal G to which the control signal for the green OLED is applied, is coupled via the resistor 24 to a non- inverting input of the op- amp 20.
- the output of the op-amp 10 is coupled to the non- inverting input of the op-amp 20 via the resistor 13.
- the resistor 21 is coupled between an inverting input of the op-amp 20 and ground and the resistor 22 is coupled between the inverting input and the output of the op-amp 20.
- the driver 20 acts as a summing amplifier. If the values of the resistors 13 and 24 are selected to be equal, then:
- V G fc ( l + R 22 /R 21 ) [V (G) + V B ] .
- V G V(G) + V B , in which case the voltage applied across the green OLED, V G - V B , is equal to V(G) .
- the brightness of the green OLED is controlled only by the voltage of the signal applied to the terminal G.
- the driver 30 is configured with resistors 23, 31, 32 and 33 to operate similarly to driver 20. If the values of resistors 23 and 33 are selected to be equal to each other and the values of the resistors 31 and 32 are selected to be equal to each other, then the voltage applied across the red OLED is equal to V(R) , the voltage of the control signal applied to the terminal R. In this case, the brightness of the red OLED is controlled only by the voltage applied to the terminal R.
- the brightness of the light emitted by each of the OLEDs in the stacked structure 40 can be controlled independently of the brightness of the other OLEDs, thus providing a transparent control of the individual OLEDs of the SOLED from the corresponding input control signals.
- the nominal driving voltage for an individual OLED in the stacked structure is Vd (typically approximately 10 volts)
- the magnitude of the voltage V R applied to the electrode 41 can be as great as 3Vd (30 volts) .
- the driver 30 must be capable of developing an output voltage of 3Vd and thus must be powered with a supply voltage of 3Vd or greater.
- the voltages V B , V G and V R for driving the OLEDs are negative in polarity. This is due to the ordering of the organic layers of the individual OLEDs and the grounding of the bottom electrode 47. It should be evident that the circuit of Fig. 1 is also applicable to SOLEDs which require positive driving voltages (as in the case in which the ETL/EL and HTL of each OLED are reversed) . Moreover, the circuit of Fig. 1 can be readily adapted to operate with input control signals of either positive or negative polarity.

- the electrode layer 67 is coupled to ground and the electrode layer 69 is coupled to a negative voltage.
- the order of deposition of the hole transporting layer and the electron transporting and electroluminescent layer is the same for all three of the OLEDs in the stack. Namely, in each case, the electron transporting and electroluminescent layer is deposited over the hole transporting layer. It should be evident that a reverse ordering is also possible, i.e., the hole transporting layer is deposited over the electron transporting and electroluminescent layer.
- the insulating layer 66 is arranged between electrode layers arranged between the middle and upper OLEDs.
- the embodiment of Fig. 2 can be readily modified so that the insulating layer is instead arranged between electrodes arranged between the lower and middle OLEDs.

Microcavities between layers can be established within the stacked structure to provide filtering of the emitted light . The color of the light emitted by each OLED can thus be adjusted in accordance with the selection of layer thicknesses .
