Abstract

The article represents a translated, revised, and updated excerpt from the book Electroluminescent Organic Light-Emitting Diodes Based on Metal Coordination Compounds, Rostov-on-Don: Yuzhn. Fed. Univ., 2015; ISBN 978-5-9275-1469-4 (see Additional Information). The measurement of performance characteristics of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), including current–voltage, luminance–voltage, and spectral characteristics is described in detail in relaton to the laboratory measuring facility existing at the Frumkin Institute of Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences. A detailed description of this setup, including the essential minimum set of instruments required for characterizing OLEDs, can serve as a guide for researchers embarking on experiments in the field of electroluminescence. The second part of the article describes the principal limiting factors for OLED efficiency.
