Electrical Characteristics of Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLED) using the cathode change

다양한 혼합 전극을 사용한 Organic Light Emitting Diodes(OLEDs)의 전기적 특성

Efficient electron injection is essential to achieve bright and efficient organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In spite of high work function of Al, it is a common cathode because of its stability. In this paper, to overcome the poor electron injection in OLEDs with Al cathode, OLEDs with various composite cathodes were fabricated and investigated using a conventional OLEDs structure of indium tin oxide ITO/NPB(40 nm)/$Alq_3$(50 nm)/Al. composite cathodes were composed of alkaline materials such as Ca and Li, Al deposition or codeposited with AI. We showed best performance at the device with composite cathode (LiF/Al).
