Abstract
Multi-color light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with various advantages of color tunability, self-luminescence, wide viewing angles, high color contrast, low power consumption, and flexibility provide a wide range of applications including full-color display, augmented reality/virtual reality technology, and wearable healthcare systems. In this review, we introduce three main types of multi-color LEDs: the organic LED, colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) LED, and CQD–organic hybrid LED. Various strategies for realizing multi-color LEDs are discussed including red, green, and blue sub-pixel side-by-side arrangement; vertically stacked LED unit configuration; and stacked emitter layers in a single LED. Finally, according to their status and challenges, we present an outlook of multi-color devices. We hope this review can inspire researchers and make a contribution to the further improvement of multi-color LED technology.
