In this paper,we report on the fabrication of a top-emitting electrophosphorescent p-i-n white organic lightemitting diode on the basis of a low-reflectivity Sm/Ag semi-transparent cathode together with a thickness-optimized ZnS out-coupling layer.With a 24-nm out-coupling layer,the reflectivity of the cathode is reduced to 8% at 492 nm and the mean reflectivity is 24% in the visible area.By introducing an efficient electron blocking layer tris(1phenylpyrazolato,N,C2 ')iridium(III)(Ir(ppz) 3) to confine the exciton recombination area,the current efficiency and the colour stability of the device are effectively improved.A white emission with the Ir(ppz) 3 layer exhibits a maximum current efficiency of 9.8 cd/A at 8 V,and the Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage(CIE) chromaticity coordinates are almost constant during a large voltage change of 6 V-11 V.There is almost no viewing angular dependence in the spectrum when the viewing angle is no more than 45,with a CIE x,y coordinate variation of only(±0.0025,±0.0008).Even at a large viewing angle(75),the CIE x,y coordinate change is as small as(±0.0087,±0.0013).
本文报道了一种用于堆叠结构有机电致发光器件的新的电荷生成层:LiF/Al/V2O5,采用这种电荷生成层的堆叠器件的两个发光单元互相独立,不受影响.说明在外加电场下,这种电荷生成层具有向邻近的发光单元注入电子空穴的能力.而堆叠了两个相同发光单元的器件的电流效率在相同的电流密度下约为普通单层结构的1.7倍.同时这种电荷生成层避免了溅射indium tin oxide(ITO)和金属、有机物共掺,只需要热蒸发,生长工艺简单.
