Achieving high-luminescence organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) with narrowband emission and high color purity is important in various optoelectronic fields. Laser displays exhibit outstanding advantages in next-generation display technologies owing to their ultimate visual experience
but this remains a great challenge. Here
we develop a novel OLED based organic single crystals. By strongly coupling the organic exciton state to an optical microcavity
we obtain polariton electroluminescent (EL) emission from the polariton OLEDs (OPLEDs) with high luminance
narrow-band emission
high color purity
high polarization as well as excellent optically pumped polariton laser. Further
we evaluate the potential for electrically pumped polariton laser through theoretical analysis and provide possible solutions. This work provides a powerful strategy with a material–device combination that paves the way for electrically driven organic single-crystal-based polariton luminescent devices and possibly lasers.
