In order to understand the doping control for the belt source evaporation, the Alq3 and NPB were codeposited on the Ta plate to re-sublimate. The very slow heating $(0.1^{\circ}C/s)$ of the Ta plate shows the separated rate signals of Alq3 and NPB sublimated from the Alq3-mixed NPB organic film on Ta plate. The ratio of the vapor rates of Alq3 and NPB was measured as same as that of each sublimation rates. Therefore, the doping control of the belt source evaporation is of the ratio of the vaporization rates of host and dopants.

In this study, we prepared red organic light-emitting-diode(OLED) with a fluorescent dye(Sq)-doped and inserted between emission and cathode layer 1,3-bis(5-p-t-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)benzene (OXD7) or/and tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$) layers for increasing electroluminescent(EL) efficiency. This inserting effect has been observed and EL mechanism characteristics have been examined. The hole transfer layer is a N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis-(3-methyl phenyl)-1,1'-diphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD), and the host and guest materials of emission layer is $Alq_3$ and bis[1-methyl-3,3'-dimethyl-2-indorindiylmethyl] squaraine (Sq), respectively. For the inserting of $Alq_3$, emission efficiency increased. But we can not obtained highly pure red emission owing to the emission of inserting $Alq_3$ layer. The inserting of OXD7 makes hole block and accumulate. Because of increasing recombination probability of electron and hole, highly pure red color can be held. Simultaneously brightness characteristics and emission efficiency could improve.

Electroluminescent(EL) devices based on organic thin films have attracted lots of interests in large-area light-emitting display. One of the problems of such device is a lifetime, where a degradation of the cell is possibly due to an organic layers thickness, morphology and interface with electrode. In this study, light-omitting organic electroluminescent devices were fabricated using Alq$_3$(8-hydroxyquinolinate aluminum) and TPD(N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl(1-1\`-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine). Where Alq$_3$ is an electron-transport and emissive layer, TPD is a hole-transport layer. The cell structure is ITO/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al and the cell is fabricated by vacuum evaporation method. In a measurement of current-voltage characteristics, we obtained a turn-on voltage at about 9 V. We also investigated stability of the devices using buffer layer with blend of PEI (Poly ether imide) and TPD by varying mot ratios between ITO and Alq$_3$. In current-voltage characteristics measurement, we obtained the turn-on voltage at about 6 V and observed an anomalous behavior at 3∼4 V. And we used other buffer layer of PEDT(3,4-pyrazino-3',4'-ethylenedithio-2,2',5,5'-tetrathiafulvalenium) with ITO/PEDT/TPD/Alq$_3$Al structure. We observed a surface morphology by AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy), UV/visible absorption spectrum, and PL(Photoluminescence) spectrum. We obtained the UV/visible absorption peak at 358nm in TPD and at 359nm in Alq$_3$, and the PL peaks at 410nm in TPD and at 510nm in Alq$_3$. We also studied EL spectrum in the cell structure of ITO/(TPD+PEI)/Alq$_3$/Al.

Built-in voltage in ITO/$Alq_3$/ Al organic light-emitting diodes was studied by varying a thickness of $Alq_3$ layer using modulated photocurrent technique at ambient condition. A thickness of the $Alq_3$ layer was varied from 100 to 250 nm. From the bias voltage-dependent photocurrent, built-in voltage of the device was able to be determined. The obtained built-in voltage is about 0.8 V irrespective of the $Alq_3$ layer thickness in the device. This value of built-in voltage confirms that the built-in voltage is generated due to a difference of work function of the anode and cathode. The $Alq_3$ layer thickness independent built-in voltage indicates that the built-in electric field in the device is uniform across the organic layer.

An $ITO/Alq_3/Al$ structure was used to study complex impedance of $Alq_3$ based organic light-emitting diodes. Equivalent circuit was analyzed in a device structure of $ITO/Alq_3/Al$ with a thickness layer of $Alq_3$ of 100 nm. The obtained impedance was able to be fitted using equivalent circuit model of parallel combination of resistance $R_p$ and capacitance $C_p$ with a small series resistance of $R_s$.

The multi-layered OELDs(organic electroluminescent devices) were prepared on the patterened ITO (indium tin oxide)/glass substrates by the vacuum thermal evaporation method. The $Alq_3$ (tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum) low molecule compound was used as the light emission layer. TPD(triphenyl-diamine) and $\alpha-NPD$ were used as the hole transport layer. CuPc (Copper phthalocyanine) was also used as the hole injection layers. In addition, QD2 (quinacridone2) organic material with $10\AA$ thickness was deposited in the $Alq_3$ emission layer to improve the luminance efficiency. The threshold voltage was about 7V for all devices. The luminance and efficiency of devices was improved by substitution the $\alpha-NPD$ for TPD as the hole as the hole transport layer. The luminance efficiency of the OELD sample with QD2 thin film in the $Alq_3$ emission layer was found to be 1.55 lm/W, which is about 8 times larger value compared to the sample without QD2 thin layer.
