摘要: 利用两种Cs基衍生物碳酸铯(Cs2CO3)和醋酸铯(CH3COOCs)作为n 型掺杂剂掺入到一种新型的电子传输材料2,9-二(2-萘基)-4,7-二苯基-1,10-菲啰啉(NBPhen)中来提高有机发光二极管(OLEDs)的效率. 实验结果表明: 器件的驱动电压明显降低, 并且优化后得到的Cs基n型掺杂器件(ITO/β-NPB/CBP:5%(w)N-BDAVBi/NBPhen/NBPhen:Cs2CO3 (or CH3COOCs)/Al)呈现出较好的电致发光性能, 在14 V时电流密度分别为551.80和527.88 mA·cm-2, 对应的亮度分别达到39750和39820 cd·m-2, 电流效率在亮度为10000 cd·m-2时分别为14.60 cd·A-1 (Cs2CO3掺杂)和14.40 cd·A-1 (CH3COOCs掺杂), 这些参数明显优于传统器件的发光性能(ITO/β-NPB/CBP:5%(w)N-BDAVBi/NBPhen/Cs2CO3/Al, 其在14 V时电流密度为312.39 mA·cm-2, 对应的亮度为25190 cd·m-2; 电流效率在亮度为10000 cd·m-2时为9.45 cd·A-1. 此外, 基于有机半导体掺杂原理和器件的能级结构对n型掺杂器件效率提高的原因进行了分析.

Abstract: The efficiency of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) was markedly improved using the novel electron transporting material 2,9-bis(naphthalen-2-yl)-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (NBPhen) doped with Cs-derivatives including cesium carbonate (Cs2CO3) and cesium acetate (CH3COOCs) as the n-type dopant. The operating voltage of devices containing these materials as an n-type electron transporting layer (n-ETL) was significantly reduced. Optimized devices with Cs2CO3-doped or CH3COOCsdoped n-ETL (ITO/β-NPB/CBP:5%(w) N-BDAVBi/NBPhen/NBPhen:Cs2CO3 (or CH3COOCs)/Al) exhibited excellent electroluminescent performance with current densities of 551.80 and 527.88 mA·cm-2 at 14 V, corresponding brightnesses of 39750 and 39820 cd·m-2, and current efficiencies of 14.60 and 14.40 cd· A-1 at 10000 cd·m-2, respectively. These results were superior to that of conventional device (ITO/β-NPB/ CBP:5%(w)N-BDAVBi/NBPhen/Cs2CO3/Al) without an n-ETL, which exhibited a current density of 312.39 mA·cm-2 at 14 V, corresponding brightness of 25190 cd·m-2, and current efficiency of 9.45 cd·A-1 at 10000 cd·m-2. In addition, the reason for the increase in the efficiency of n-type doped devices has been analyzed based on the concept of the doping mechanism in organic semiconductors and the energy level scheme of the devices.
