Organic Light-Emitting Devices with a LiF Hole Blocking Layer
-
Abstract
We introduce a thin LiF layer into tris-8-hydroxyquinoline aluminium (Alq3) based bilayer organic light-emitting devices to block hole transport. By varying the thickness and position of this LiF layer in Alq3, we obtain an lectroluminescent efficiency increase by a factor of two with respect to the control devices without a LiF blocking layer. By using a 10nm dye doped Alq3 sensor layer, we prove that LiF can block holes and excitons effectively. Experimental results suggest that the thin LiF layer may be a good hole and exciton blocking layer.
