Details | It is demonstrated that dipolar doping of hole transport layers (HTLs) controls the density and polarity of the accumulated charge at the critical interface between the HTL and the emission layer (EML) in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Dipolar doping enables spontaneous orientation polarization (SOP) even in nonpolar HTL, and consequently compensates for the negative interface charge originating from the SOP of the adjacent layer. The results suggest that besides the energy level offset, SOP and permanent dipole moment of the materials should also be taken into account for realizing efficient carrier blocking interfaces. Dipolar doping is a versatile tool to tune charge accumulation, and to study its influence on device performance as well as the role of SOP in OLEDs. |
