Abstract

This paper reports a novel high-sag microlens array (MLA) film with a full fill factor and presents its application to organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) for the purpose of improving their outcoupling efficiency. A gapless hexagonal MLA film having a high sag ratio is proposed and fabricated by a simple micromachining process including trench formation and the conformal vapor phase deposition of a polymer. By applying the MLA films to OLED panels, the outcoupling efficiency was increased by a maximum of 48% without any apparent color shift. A high-sag MLA film with a full fill factor is expected to impart remarkable optical efficiency to various display or lighting applications with flat panel light sources including OLEDs.
