Abstract

We demonstrate enhanced hole-injection and lower driving voltage in vacuum-deposited organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with a novel tunneling junction composed of the Mg:Alq3/WO3 layer. The device, ITO/Mg:Alq3/WO3/NPB/Alq3/LiF/AI, achieved one of the lowest driving voltages of 5.8 V at 20mA/cm2 for conventional small molecule OLEDs. We propose the laminated Mg:Alq3/WO 3/NPB functions as a Fowler Nordheim tunneling junction, which can improve hole-injection. It was found to also prolong device lifetime under dc driving, that is comparable to the best reported for the Alq3 emitter.
