Peak OLED efficiency is generally considered in the absence of bimolecular quenching. Recent work has challenged this notion, with observations of exciton-polaron quenching at low-bias caused by spontaneous orientation polarization (SOP). Here, we examine how SOP-induced quenching can be mitigated via judicious choice of film processing conditions and stack architecture.
