Triphenylamine derivatives play important roles as hole transporting materials in organic light emitting devices. However, low molecular weight triphenylamine derivatives show low glass transition temperature and aggregation behavior, and the vapor deposition step of low molecular weight materials is incompatible with large area display fabrication. Conventional polymer PEDOT-PSS HTL has serious drawbacks such as the ITO anode corrosion, poor surface energy match with aromatic EMLs. To solve these problems, we introduced crosslinkable units to triphenylamine-based polymers to make insoluble HTL by thermal curing following spin-coating. Electrochemical and optical properties of the new hole transporting materials were investigated. In addition, the device characteristics obtained with new hole transporting polymers were investigated in details.

The electrical and optical properties of electrophosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with modified hole blocking layer (HBL) were investigated. Well-known 2,9-dimethyl-4,7- diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP) HBL is mixed with electrophosphorescent host material (4,4'-N,N'- dicarbazole-biphenyl: CBP) or electrophosphorescent dopant material (fac-tris(2-phenylpyridine) iridium: $Ir(ppy)_3$) or both. The highest external quantum efficiency was obtained in the device with $BCP-CBP-Ir(ppy)_3$ mixed HBL and we attribute this result to the additional charge recombination in mixed-HBL.

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) of metalsemiconductor-metal (MSM) structure have been fabricated by using m-MTDATA [4,4',4"-tris (3-methylphenylphenylamino) triphenylamine] as a hole-injection layer (HIL). The m-MTDATA is shown to be an effective hole-injecting material for the OLED, in that the insertion of m-MTDATA greatly reduces the roughness of anode surface and improves the device performance.

This study proposes a controller with the techniqu e of voltage -compensated driver for producing grayscaled pictures on passive matrix organic light emitting diodes (PMOLEDs) panels; especially, the controller overcomes the problem of luminance nonuniformity on displaying pictures. Because the controller is a voltage type driver, the output impedance of the driver is much less than that of the current-type driver. Hence, the controller provides a better electron-optical response than those of traditional current drivers. An area compensated look-up table (ACLUT) is designed in data feeding paths for removing luminance non-uniformity; thus, the proposed controller provides nearly 95% luminance uniformity.

Three-color organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) of metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) structure have been favricated by using m-MTDATA [4,4',4"-tris (3-methylphenylphenylamino) triphenylamine] as hole injection layer(HIL). The mMTDATA is shown to be an effective hole injecting material, in that the insertion of mMTDATA greatly reduces the roughness of anode surface and improves the device performance. Red, green and blue OLEDs were fabricated, and their color coordinates in CIE chromaticity were found to be (0.600, 0.389), (0.240, 0.525), and (0.171, 0.171), respectively. The luminous efficiencies of the fabricated OLEDs were 1.4 lm/W at 106 $cd/m^{2}$ for red, 1.4 lm/W at 100 $cd/m^{2}$ for green, and 2.0 lm/W at 104 $cd/m^{2}$ for blue.

The device characteristics and the interface electronic structures of organic light-emitting devices based on /tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum ($Alq_3$) were investigated with Al/NaF cathode. The Al/NaF cathode greatly improved the performance of the device over the Al-only cathode. A series of photoelectron spectroscopy studies on cathode structures including Al/LiF and $Al/CaF_2$ revealed that the performance enhancement originated mainly from the HOMO peak shift upon the fluoride deposition rather than the formation of the gap states

Indium tin oxide (ITO) was used as the top anode of top emission inverted organic light emitting diodes (TEIOLEDs). TEIOLEDs were fabricated by deposition of an aluminum bottom cathode, an N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1, 1'-diphenyl-4, 4 1'-diamine (TPD) hole transport layer, a tris-8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum ($Alq_3$) emission layer, and an ITO top anode sequentially. ITO was deposited by r.f. magnetron sputtering without $O_2$ flow during the deposition. After the deposition, the deposited ITO layer was kept under oxygen atmosphere for the oxidation. The characteristics of the TEOILED were affected significantly by the post-deposition oxidation condition.

We investigated the effect of lithium 8-hydroxyquinolinolatolithium (Liq) as an electron injection layer on the performance of organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) and optimized the device efficiency by varying thickness of Liq layer. The device with 1nm Liq layer showed significant enhancement of the device performance and device lifetime. We also compared $Znq_2$ and LiBBOX with Liq as an electron injection layer.

We have seen the effects of hole-injection buffer layer in organic light-emitting diodes using copper phthalocyanine(CuPc), poly(vinylcarbazole)(PVK), and Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene-sulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS) in a device structure of ITO/buffer/TPD/$Alq_3$/Al. Polymer PVK and PEDOT:PSS buffer layer was made using spin casting method and the CuPc layer was made using thermal evaporation. Current-voltage characteristics, luminance-voltage characteristics and efficiency of device were measured at room temperature with a thickness variation of buffer layer. We have obtained an improvement of the external quantum efficiency by a factor of two, four, and two and half when the CuPc, PVK, and PEDOT:PSS buffer layer are used, respectively. The enhancement of the efficiency is attributed to the improved balance of holes and elelctrons due to the use of hole-injection buffer layer. The CuPc and PEDOT:PSS layer functions as a hole-injection supporter and the PVK layer as a hole-blocking one.

The chemical vapor condensation process of Parylene-N thin films was investigated and applied to the passivation of the organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). The effects of process variables on the deposition rate were studied, and it was found that the deposition rate of Parylene increases with increasing precursor sublimation temperature but decreases with increasing substrate temperature. The Parylene film was used as a passivation layer for OLEDs, and as a result, the lifetime of the passivated OLEDs was increased by a factor of about 2.3 compared with that of non-passivated OLEDs.
