Popis: To enhance the light out coupling and stabilize the angular spectrum of white organic light emitting diodes (WOLEDs), we formed a randomly distributed corrugation directly on the external glass surface. Using a metallic master, which was prepared using laser ablation, we have imprinted the corrugation pattern directly on the glass surface. Our method yields 32% increase in the external quantum efficiency, widened luminance distribution and low angular spectra variation. Considering WOLED as a lighting source, this feature is particularly appealing. Besides the implications of the spectrally stable efficient WOLEDs through random corrugation, our work suggests a new structural approach for various light applications in which efficiency and spectral stability matter.
