Abstract
With ever more stringent color‐gamut requirements in displays (e.g., BT.2100), there is growing demand for OLEDs with narrowband emission. However, many efficient emitters reported to date show spectrally broad luminescence. Micro‐cavity OLEDs offer narrow linewidth but suffer from changes in spectrum with observation angle. To overcome these limitations, we hybridize microcavity and exciton states in an efficient OLED, thus creating strongly coupled polariton states that inherit the angle insensitivity of excitons and the narrow linewidth of the microcavity. Using assistant strong‐coupling layers located away from the recombination zone yields efficient OLEDs with FWHM <20 nm and angle shift <10 nm @60° tilt.
