In this study, we have invastigated the recombination zone in the blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices with various partially doped structures. The basic device structure of the blue PHOLED was anode / hole injection layer (HIL) / hole transport layer (HTL) / emittingvastigated the recombination zone in the blue layer (EML) / hole blocking layer (HBL) / electron transport layer (ETL) / electron injection layer (EIL) / cathode. After the preparation of the blue PHOLED, the current density (J) - voltage (V) - luminance (L) and current efficiency characteristics were measured.

Doping material of Hole Transport material is Poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) and PEI(Poly-Ether-Imide). Carrier injection from the electrodes to the doped PMMA and PEI layer through the dopants and concomitant electroluminescence from Alq$_3$were observed. Green emission with luminance of 40cd/m$^2$was achieved at a drive voltage of 30V

A poly[bis(4-butypheny)-bis(phenyl)benzidine] (poly-TPD) and poly(9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) bilayer was employed as a hole transport layer (HTL) in solution-processed CdSe/ZnS quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs). The thickness of the PVK layer spin-coated onto the poly-TPD layer, whose thickness was fixed to 40 nm, was varied, with PVK layer thicknesses of 0 nm, 35 nm, 45 nm, and 55 nm. Because the thickness of the PVK can determine the hole transport properties of the HTL, a PVK thickness that maximizes the performance of the HTL for the QLEDs was investigated. By employing the optimized PVK thickness of 45 nm, the current efficiency of the QLED exhibited a 1.74 times improvement when compared with that of the QLED with poly-TPD based HTL without PVK. This was mainly attributed to the decrease in the energy barrier between the HTL and the quantum dot (QD) emitting layer (EML).

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) have gained attention for applications in quantum dot light emitting diodes (QLEDs) due to their high photoluminescence quantum yield, narrow emission spectra, and tunable bandgap. Nevertheless, non-radiative recombination induced by electron and hole imbalance deteriorates the device efficiency and stability. To overcome the problem, researchers have been trying to enhance hole transport properties of hole transporting layers (HTL) and/or slow down the electron injection in electron transport layer (ETL). Here, we summarize two approaches: i) development of interfacial materials between QD and ETL (or HTL); ii) engineering of HTL by blending or multi-layer approaches.

We studied the electrical properties of Copper(II)-phthalocyanine (Cu-Pc) as a hole transport layer in organic light emitting devices (OLEDs). OLEDs were constructed with ITO/CU-Pc/triphenyl-diamine (TPD)/tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ( Alq$_3$) + 4- (Dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(4-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM)/Al. It was consisted of a thin DCM in Alq$_3$emission layer. We observed that the change of recombination zone was moved toward the cathode as the hole mobility increased due to the heat-treatment temperature of Cu-Pc layer increased.

We report on a highly conductive and stable hole transporting layer comprising of N,N'-di(1- naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenylbenzidine $({\alpha}\;-NPD)$ doped with molybdenum oxide $(MoO_3)$. Compared to the reference device, the device with $MoO_3-doped$ hole transporting material exhibits higher conductivity and thermal stability. The temperature dependence of the current-voltage characteristics are studied for various $(MoO_3)$ doping concentration.

We have investigated the effect of host on the device charactistics of green phosphorescent organic light emitting devices consising of mCP, CBP and TPBi. Electrons were confined within the device by inserting hole transport layer between the electro transport and the emitting layer. When the appropriate interlayers were added, the device with TPBI host layer performances were found to be dramatically enhanced, with current efficiency and lifetime of 18cd/A and 18hour.

The performance of three-layered organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) was investigated using TPD hole-transport and injection layers, Teflon-AF, and the electron-injection layer of $Li_2CO_3$ and LiF. The OLEDs were manufactured in a structure of TPD/$Alq_3$/LiF, TPD/$Alq_3$/$Li_2CO_3$, and AF/$Alq_3$/LiF using low-molecular organic materials. In three different three-layered OLEDs, it was found that the device with the TPD/$Alq_3$/LiF structure shows higher performance in maximum luminance, and maximum external quantum efficiency compared to those of the device with TPD/$Alq_3$/$Li_2CO_3$ and TPD/$Alq_3$/LiF by 35% and 17%, and 193% and 133%, respectively. It is thought that the combined LiF/Al cathode contributes to a reduced work function and improves an electrical conduction mechanism due to the electron injection rather than the hole transport, which then increases a recombination rate of charge carriers.

We fabricated the polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs) with ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PVK/PFO:MEH-PPV/LiF/Al structures. The effect of the thickness of PEDOT:PSS hole injection layer(HIL) on the electrical and optical properties of PLEDs was investigated. In addition, PVK hole transport layer(HTL) was introduced in the PLED device, and compared the properties of the PLEDS with and without PVX layer. All organic film layers were prepared by the spin coating method on the plasma treated ITO/glass substrates. As the thickness of PEDOT:PSS film layer decreased from about 80 nm to 50 nm, the luminance of PLED device increased from $220cd/m^2$에서 $450cd/m^2$. This may be ascribed to the increased transportation efficiency of the holes into the emission layer of PLED. The maximum current density and luminance were obtained fir the PLED device with PVX hole transport layer, showing that the current density and luminance were $268mA/cm^2\;and\;540cd/m^2$ at 12V, respectively. This values were improved by about 14% and 22% in current density and luminance compared with the PLED device without PVK layer.

We present that the carrier balance can be improved by doping a hole transport layer of 4,4'- bis[N-(1-napthyl)-N-phenyl-amino]-biphenyl (${\alpha}$-NPD) with a hole blocking material of 2,9-dimethyl- 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP). The doping leads to disturb hole transport, which can enhance the balance of electron s and holes concentration in the emitting layer, aluminum tris(8 -hydroxyquinoline) (Alq3), resulting in enhanced electroluminescence (EL) quantum efficiency for the device with the doped ${\alpha}$-NPD.
