Organic light-emitting devices utilizing copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) and C(60) as the hole- and electron-injection layers were reported. Compared with a conventional device without CuPc and C(60) layers, the improvement of the contrast is more than 100% under 140-lx ambient lighting at a brightness of 300 cd/m(2). A maximum current efficiency of 3.93 cd/A, which is higher than 3.62 cd/A for a conventional device, was obtained at 9 V. The device has a maximum luminance of 17170 cd/m(2) at 15 V. The high contrast and high efficiency of the device are attributed to the high absorption and high charge mobility of CuPc and C(60) films.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
