... They were the first to demonstrate organic LED that efficiently utilizes phosphorescence, giving the devices efficiencies > 25 percent and have now demonstrated OLEDs with efficiencies close to 100 percent. They have prepared a novel stacked LED that gives full-color tunable emission from a single stacked R-G-B pixel, as well as transparent and flexible LED s with high brightness and lifetime.
