Abstract
In this paper, two types of blue organic light-emitting device were designed. We have analyzed the characteristics of Type I device without a hole blocking layer, and analyzed the characteristics of Type II device using a hole blocking layer of BCP or BAlq materials with 30 ${\AA}$ thickness. We obtained the ITO having the work function value of 5.02 eV using $N_2$ plasma treatment method with the plasma power 200 W. Type I device structure was ITO/2-TNATA/$\alpha$-NPD/DPVBi/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al:Li, and type II device structure was ITO/2-TNATA/$\alpha$-NPD/DPVBi/HBL/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al:Li. We have analyzed the characteristics of Type I and Type II device. The characteristics of the device were most efficiency on occasion of using a hole blocking layer of BAlq material with 30 ${\AA}$ thickness. Current density was 226.75 $mA/cm^2$, luminance was 10310 $cd/m^2$, Current efficiency was 4.55 cd/A, power efficiency was 1.43 lm/W at an applied voltage of 10V. The maximum EL wavelength of the fabricated blue organic light-emitting device was 456nm. The full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) for the EL spectra was 57nm. CIE color coordinates were x=0.1438 and y=0.1580, which was similar to NTSC deep-blue color with CIE color coordinates of x=0.14 and y=0.08.
