Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) are solid state light emitting devices where the emissive material is a thin film of organic semiconductor. OLED holds the fabrication advantage with flexible and stretchable substrates which cannot be achieved using inorganic emitters. The organic emitters have classified according to their molecular weight, namely small molecule OLED or polymer LEDs. Since, the demonstration of first hetero-junction organic LED by Tang et al. in 1987, the efficiency of OLEDs now reached similar to nitride based LEDs. The conjugated π-electron conductivity and strong exciton confinement are some of the fruitful properties of organic emitters for realizing efficient light emission. By cultivating both singlet and triplet excitons in organics, it is possible to achieve 100% internal quantum efficiency. However, the maximum external quantum efficiency demonstrated in state of the art devices are 30-40% only. Significantly, the OLED performances are critically depends the on the charge balance and exciton confinement capabilities within the device architecture. In our research, we significantly focused on the charge balance, exciton confinement and interface band alignment in OLEDs through different strategies.
