High efficiency rubrene based inverted top-emission organic light emitting devices with a mixed single layer

Inverted top-emission organic light emitting devices (TEOLEDs) with a mixed single layer by mixing of electron transport materials (PyPySPyPy and Alq₃), hole transport material (α-NPD) and dope material (rubrene) were investigated. Maximum power efficiency of 3.5 lm/W and maximum luminance of 7000 cd/m² were obtained by optimizing the mixing ratio of PyPySPyPy:Alq₃:α-NPD:rubrene=25:50:25:1. Luminance and power efficiency of mixed single layer device were two times improved compared to bi-layer heterojunction device and tri-layer heterojunction device. Lifetime test also shows that the mixed single layer device exhibits longer operational lifetimes of 343 h, which is three times longer than the 109 h for tri-layer device, and two times longer than the 158 h for bi-layer device. In addition, the maximum luminance and power efficiency were obtained at 20,000 cd/m² and 7.5 lm/W, respectively, when a TPD layer of 45 nm was capped onto the top metal electrode.

Enhanced quantum efficiency in polymer electroluminescence devices by inserting an ultrathin PMMA layer

We report an increase of electroluminescence (EL) efficiency by about two times for poly(2-methoxy-5-(2′-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene) (MEH-PPV) based polymer light-emitting diodes (PLED) while employing an ultrathin layer of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) between a hole injection layer, polyethylenedioxythiophenne:polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and an emitting layer, MEH-PPV. The peak power efficiency of the control device (ITO/MEH-PPV/LiF/Al) was 0.42 lm/W with a current efficiency of 0.66 cd/A. The device with the optimized thickness of PMMA interface layer shows the highest power efficiency of 1.15 lm/W at a current efficiency exceeding 1.83 cd/A. The significant improvement in the device performance is attributed to the decrease of holes injection and the promotion of electrons injection, which cause the balance of the carriers within the emitting layer.     

An organic electrophosphorescent device driven by all-organic thin-film transistor using photoacryl as a gate insulator

Organic electrophosphorescent devices have been intensively investigated for using in full-color flat-panel display. Since the quantum efficiency of electrophosphorescent device decreases rapidly as the luminance increases, it is desirable to operate the electrophosphorescent display with active matrix rather than passive matrix. Here we report the study of driving electrophosphorescent diode with all-organic TFT. We obtained the maximum power luminance that was obtained about 90 cd/m². Turn-on voltage is approximately 10 V. Field effect mobility, threshold voltage, and on–off current ratio in 0.5-μm thick gate dielectric layer were 0.13 cm²/V s, −7 V, and 10⁶ A/A. The structure of electrophosphorescent diode is ITO/TPD/BCP:Ir(ppy)₃/BCP/Alq₃/Li:Al/Al. In organic TFT, photoacryl is used as an insulator and pentacene as an active layer.     

Effect of thickness variation of hole injection and hole blocking layers on the performance of fluorescent green organic light emitting diodes

In this paper we present the effect of thickness variation of hole injection and hole blocking layers on the performance of fluorescent green organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). A number of OLED devices have been fabricated with combinations of hole injecting and hole blocking layers of varying thicknesses. Even though hole blocking and hole injection layers have opposite functions, yet there is a particular combination of their thicknesses when they function in conjunction and luminous efficiency and power efficiency are maximized. The optimum thickness of CuPc (Copper(II) phthalocyanine) layer, used as hole injection layer and BCP (2,9 dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) used as hole blocking layer were found to be 18 nm and 10 nm respectively. It is with this delicate adjustment of thicknesses, charge balancing is achieved and luminous efficiency and power efficiency were optimized. The maximum luminous efficiency of 3.82 cd/A at a current density of 24.45 mA/cm² and maximum power efficiency of 2.61 lm/W at a current density of 5.3 mA/cm² were achieved. We obtained luminance of 5993 cd/m² when current density was 140 mA/cm². The EL spectra was obtained for the LEDs and found that it has a peaking at 524 nm of wavelength.     

Quantum dot light emitting diodes using size-controlled ZnO NPs

The particle size and trap energy level of ZnO were adjusted by varying the concentration of precursors using a sol–gel process, and the energy transport properties of the electron transport layer in quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QD-LEDs) were analyzed. Thus far, no study has considered the efficient electron transport properties of quantum dot light-emitting devices with respect to trap energy levels owing to the oxygen vacancies of ZnO. The particle size and trap energy levels of ZnO were analyzed based on optical properties such as photoluminescence and absorbance. The optimized device showed excellent performance, with a maximum luminance of 50,120 cd/m², a high efficiency of 5.85 cd/A, and a threshold voltage of 2.5 V. The Y-ZnO (yellow photoluminescence ZnO)-based QD-LEDs not only enhanced the injection efficiency of electrons into the emitting layer but also confined the holes in the emitting layer due to the shallow trap level of Y-ZnO, in contrast to the deep trap levels of G-ZnO (green photoluminescence ZnO) and B-ZnO (blue photoluminescence ZnO). Here, we present the first attempt to analyze the electron transport behavior of the electron transport layer of the resulting device.

The maximum power efficiency and power efficiency at 1000 cd/m² were 31.4 and 16.9 lm/W, respectively.     

Effect of host and interlayer structures on device performances of hybrid white organic light-emitting diodes

The effect of host and interlayer structures on device performances of hybrid white organic light emitting diodes was studied by changing the energy level of host and interlayer materials. A mixed layer of hole transport type and electron transport type materials was used as a host and an interlayer. In the red:green/interlayer/blue stacked structure, a red shift of emission color was observed by increasing the highest occupied molecular orbital of the electron transport type material in the mixed layer. An optimization of the device structure gave a high current efficiency of 32.4 cd/A with a color coordinate of (0.44, 0.45).

Increased luminance of MEH-PPV and PFO based PLEDs by using salmon DNA as an electron blocking layer

The effect of salmon DNA-CTMA as an electron blocking layer (EBL) has been examined on the performance of MEH-PPV and PFO-based light emitting diodes. Though the turn-on voltage increases with incorporation of EBL, a significant increase in luminance and luminous efficiency for both the devices is observed. The EBL improves the device performance by blocking electrons at the EBL-polymer interface, thereby increasing the recombination probability of electrons and holes. The luminance of the MEH-PPV based Bio-LED increases to 100 cd/m² from 30 cd/m² while a corresponding increase for the PFO based LED is to 160 cd/m² from 80 cd/m² with and without EBL, respectively.
