Enhanced Efficiency and Durability of Organic Electroluminescent Devices by Doping in Emitting LayerEnhanced Efficiency and Durability of Organic Electroluminescent Devices by Doping in Emitting Layer

摘要

Remarkable improvement in efficiency and stability has been observed in a doped organic electroluminescence device, which consists of a hole-transport layer, an electron-transport layer and a luminescent layer. The hole-transport layer is a N,N’-bis(3-methyphenyl)-N,N’-diphenylbenzidine film. The doped emitting layer consists of 8-(quinolinolate)-aluminum as the host and rubrene as the emission dopant. The doped device demonstrated a brightness in excess of 40 000 cd/m 2 and the maximum external quantum efficiency of 3.4%, which is about six times and four times respectively greater than those of the undoped device. For no packaged deviced, a luminance half-life on the order of about 230 h has been achieved under a constant current density of 15 mA/cm 2, starting at 500 cd/m 2 at the room temperature.
