Material structure selection of blue organic light emitting diodes utilizing a hybrid experimental design

A hybrid approach integrating a Taguchi orthogonal table with an irregular design of experiments (DOE) method was proposed for selecting an optimal material structure of blue organic light emitting diodes in order to achieve multi-objective quality characteristics of devices. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was adopted to identify significant factors before regression models were obtained. Finally, an optimal material structure was determined by maximizing a desirability function relating to selected critical quality characteristics including the driving voltage, the luminance, and luminance efficiency.
