Exciton limits are meant to be broken: OLED surpasses 100 percent exciton production efficiency

Researchers have demonstrated an OLED that uses singlet fission to boost the percentage of excitons created per pair of electrical charges to over 100 percent. This increase of light-producing excitons when one singlet exciton is split into two triplet excitons through singlet fission results in a stronger emission intensity and is promising for the development of high-intensity near-infrared OLEDs for biological and communications applications.
