Modeling of light extraction efficiency of scattering thin film using Mie scattering

Significant amount of emitted light from an organic light emitting diode (OLED) is trapped as a result of total internal reflection (TIR) on a glass–air interface. One of the strategies to increase the light extraction efficiency is using a scattering thin film. A model is built using the Monte Carl...
