Matrixes doped with semiconductor nanocrystals are provided. In certain embodiments, the semiconductor nanocrystals have a size and composition such that they absorb or emit light at particular wavelengths. The nanocrystals can comprise ligands that allow for mixing with various matrix materials, including polymers, such that a minimal portion of light is scattered by the matrixes. The matrixes of the present invention can also be utilized in refractive index matching applications. In other embodiments, semiconductor nanocrystals are embedded within matrixes to form a nanocrystal density gradient, thereby creating an effective refractive index gradient. The matrixes of the present invention can also be used as filters and antireflective coatings on optical devices and as down-converting layers. Processes for producing matrixes comprising semiconductor nanocrystals are also provided. Nanostructures having high quantum efficiency, small size, and / or a narrow size distribution are also described, as are methods of producing indium phosphide nanostructures and core-shell nanostructures with Group II-VI shells.

In a luminescence device formed of one or plural layers of organic film between a cathode and an anode, at least one layer is a luminescence layer, and a luminescence molecule of a metal coordination compound having a basic structure represented by formula (1) below and having a substituent on at least one of cyclic groups A and B is incorporated as a guest in a host material at a concentration of at least 8 wt. %, which is higher than a concentration at which a luminescence molecule of a similar structure but having no substituent exhibits a maximum luminescence efficiency to form the luminescence layer. As a result, a high-efficiency luminescence device is provided, which is less liable to cause concentration extinction even when a luminescence molecule is contained at a high concentration relative to the host material in the luminescence layer.

Organic light emitting devices are described wherein the emissive layer comprises a host material containing an emissive molecule, which molecule is adapted to luminesce when a voltage is applied across the heterostructure, and the emissive molecule is selected from the group of phosphorescent organometallic complexes, including cyclometallated platinum, iridium and osmium complexes. The organic light emitting devices optionally contain an exciton blocking layer. Furthermore, improved electroluminescent efficiency in organic light emitting devices is obtained with an emitter layer comprising organometallic complexes of transition metals of formula L2MX, wherein L and X are distinct bidentate ligands. Compounds of this formula can be synthesized more facilely than in previous approaches and synthetic options allow insertion of fluorescent molecules into a phosphorescent complex, ligands to fine tune the color of emission, and ligands to trap carriers.

The invention provides devices that emit light with high luminous efficiency at low voltage.

A light-emitting device includes an active region that is configured to emit light responsive to a voltage applied thereto. A first encapsulation layer at least partially encapsulates the active region and includes a matrix material and nanoparticles, which modify at least one physical property of the first encapsulation layer. A second encapsulation layer at least partially encapsulates the first encapsulation layer.
