Effects of the phosphorescent sensitizer on charge dynamics in deep blue phosphor-sensitized-fluorescent organic light-emitting diodes

In phosphor-sensitized-fluorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PSF-OLEDs), triplet excitons generated in the emitting layer (EML) are harvested by the sensitizer and the excitonic energy is efficiently transferred to the fluorescent dopant molecules. Since a phosphorescent sensitizer is typically...
