Molecularly Controlled Interfacial Layer Strategy Toward Highly Efficient Simple-Structured Organic Light-Emitting Diodes

Abstract

A highly efficient simplified organic light-emitting diode (OLED) with a molecularly controlled strategy to form near-perfect interfacial layer on top of the anode is demonstrated. A self-organized polymeric hole injection layer (HIL) is exploited increasing hole injection, electron blocking, and reducing exciton quenching near the electrode or conducting polymers; this HIL allows simplified OLED comprised a single small-molecule fluorescent layer to exhibits a high current efficiency (similar to y 20 cd/A).
