Vacuum deposited 4,4',4''-tris(N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino)-triphenylamine (1-TNATA), a widely-used semiconductor material, is placed as a thin interlayer between indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode and a hole transporting layer (HTL) in OLEDs and a well-stacked 1-TNATA layer leads to stable and high efficiency devices by reducing the carrier injection barrier at the interface between the ITO anode and hole transport layers. According to Raman spectra, thermal annealing after deposition as well as electromagnetic field treatment during deposition lead to closer stacking of 1-TNATA molecules and resulted in molecular ordering. By thermal annealing at about $110^{\circ}C$, an increase in current flow through the film by over 25% was observed. Molecularly-ordered 1-TNATA films played an important role in achieving higher luminance efficiency as well as higher power efficiency of the multi-layered organic EL devices in the present work. Electromagnetic field treatment during deposition was less effective compared to thermal annealing

본 연구에서는 Molybdenum oxide (MoOx)-doped 4,4',4"-tris[2-naphthyl(amino)] triphenylamine(2-TNATA)의 P-doping에 의한 hole ohmic contact과 fullerene (C60)/lithium (LiF)의 electron ohmic contact에 의한 All Ohmic contact를 이용한 유기 발광 다이오드 (OLEDs)의 광저항 특성의 향상을 설명한다. 이 소자의 성능은 MoOx-doped 2-TNATA의 두께와 도핑농도에 큰 영향을 받는다. glass/ITO/MoOx-doped 2-TNATA (100 nm)/Al 구조의 소자에서 MoOx-doped 2-TNATA 도핑 농도가 25%에서 75%로 증가할수록 hole only device의 hole ohmic 특성이 향상됐다. 그 이유는 p-type doping effect 때문이다. 또한 photoemission spectra 분석결과, p-type doping effect는 hole-injecting barrier 높이는 낮추고, hole conductivity는 향상되었다. 이것은 2-TNATA에 도핑된 MoOx의 전하전송 콤플렉스의 형성으로 hole carrier의 수가 증가하여 발생되었다. MoOx-doped 2-TNATA의 hole ohmic contact과 fullerene (C60)/lithium fluoride (LiF)의 electron ohmic contact 으로 구성된 glass/ITO/MoOx-doped 2-TNATA (75%, 60 nm)/NPB (10 nm)/Alq3 (35 nm)/C60 (5 nm)/LiF (1 nm)/Al (150 nm)의 소자구조는 6,4V에서 127,600 cd/m2 최대 휘도와 약 1,000 cd/m2에서 4.7 lm/W의 높은 전력 효율을 보여준다.

In the device fabrication, 2-TNATA [4,4',4'-tris(2-naphthylphenyl-phenylamino)-triphenyl-amine] as a hole injection material and NPB[N,N'-bis(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-1,1'-biphenyl -4,4'-diamine] as a hole transport material were deposited on the ITO(indium thin oxide)/glass substrate by vacuum evaporation. And then, yellow emission material was deposited using GDI602 as a host material and Rubrene(10%) as a dopant. Finally, small molecular OLED with the structure of $ITO/2-TNATA/NPB/GDI602:Rubrene(10%)/Alq_{3}/LiF/Al$ was obtained by in-situ successive deposition of $Alq_{3}$, LiF and Al as the electron transport material, electron injection material and cathode.

We have demonstrated the characteristics on the variation of hole transporting layer in blue organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using new blue fluorescent emitter. We fabricated two types of hole transporting layer structures that one is 4,4',4"-Tris(N-(2-naphthyl)-N-phenyl-amino)-triphenylamine (2-TNATA) of $600{\AA}$ as a hole injection layer, N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'- (2-napthyl)-(1,1'-phenyl)-4,4'-diamine (NPB) of $200{\AA}$ as a hole transporting layer and another device is NPB of $500{\AA}$ without the 2-TNATA. The devices without the 2-TNATA showed improved characteristic of the luminance and efficiency.

In this paper, two types of blue organic light-emitting device were designed. We have analyzed the characteristics of Type I device without a hole blocking layer, and analyzed the characteristics of Type II device using a hole blocking layer of BCP or BAlq materials with 30 ${\AA}$ thickness. We obtained the ITO having the work function value of 5.02 eV using $N_2$ plasma treatment method with the plasma power 200 W. Type I device structure was ITO/2-TNATA/$\alpha$-NPD/DPVBi/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al:Li, and type II device structure was ITO/2-TNATA/$\alpha$-NPD/DPVBi/HBL/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al:Li. We have analyzed the characteristics of Type I and Type II device. The characteristics of the device were most efficiency on occasion of using a hole blocking layer of BAlq material with 30 ${\AA}$ thickness. Current density was 226.75 $mA/cm^2$, luminance was 10310 $cd/m^2$, Current efficiency was 4.55 cd/A, power efficiency was 1.43 lm/W at an applied voltage of 10V. The maximum EL wavelength of the fabricated blue organic light-emitting device was 456nm. The full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) for the EL spectra was 57nm. CIE color coordinates were x=0.1438 and y=0.1580, which was similar to NTSC deep-blue color with CIE color coordinates of x=0.14 and y=0.08.

To study the impedance characteristics of a fluorescent OLED according to the device structure, we fabricated Device 1 using ITO / NPB / $Alq_3$ / Liq / Al, Device 2 using ITO / 2-TNATA / NPB / $Alq_3$ / Liq / Al, and Device 3 using ITO / 2-TNATA / NPB / SH-1:BD / $Alq_3$ / Liq / Al. The current density and luminance decreased with an increasing number of layers of the organic thin films in the order of Device 1, 2, 3, whereas the current efficiency increased. From the Cole-Cole plot at a driving voltage of 6 V, the maximum impedance values of Devices 1, 2, and 3 were respectively 51, 108, and $160{\Omega}$ just after device fabrication. An increase in the impedance maximum value is a phenomenon caused by the charge mobility and the resistance between interfaces. With the elapse of time after the device fabrication, the shape of the Cole-Cole plot changed to a form similar to 0 or a lower voltage due to the degradation of the device. As a result, we were able to see that an impedance change in an OLED reflects the characteristics of the degradation and the layer.
