There aren’t any dyes in oleds. They emit photons directly at the correct wavelength.

(Ignoring the topic of the article, which explains why that’s an oversimplification.)

If they yellow, it would be due to different colors dimming at different rates or because there is a plastic protective/anti-glare coating, and it yellowed due to UV exposure.

I meant the new blue PHOLED material.

No it would be because red+green=yellow.
