Abstract

We demonstrate p-doped organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) comprising tungsten oxide ($WO_3$) and 1,4-bis[N-(1-naphthyl)-N'-phenylamino]-4,4' diamine (NPB). We propose the NPB : $WO_3$ composition functions as a p-doping layer which significantly improves hole injection that leads to the fabrication of 4-(dicyano-methylene)-2-methyl-6-(p-dimethylaminos tyryl)-4H-pyrane (DCMl) based p-doped OLEDs with high efficiency and long lifetime.
