摘要:
A novel class of low reflectivity, high transparency, non-metallic cathodes (1) useful for a wide range of electrically active, transparent organic devices is disclosed. As a representative embodiment, the highly transparent non-metallic cathode (1) of an OLED employes a thin film of copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) (6) capped with a film of low-power, radio-frequency sputtered indium-tin-oxide (ITO). The CuPc prevents damage to the underlying organic layers during the ITO sputtering process. Due to the low reflectivity of the non-metallic cathode, a non-antireflection-coated, non-metallic-cathode-containing TOLED is disclosed that is 85 % transmissive in the visible, emitting nearly identical amounts of light in the forward and back-scattered directions.

摘要:
The present invention is directed to organic light emitting devices comprised of a heterostructure for producing electroluminescence, wherein the heterostructure includes a protection layer between a hole transporting layer and an indium tin oxide anode layer. The hole injection enhancement layer may be comprised of 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA), bis(1,2,5-thiadiazolo)-p-quinobis(1,3-dithiole) (BTQBT), or other suitable, rigid organic materials. The present invention is further directed to methods of fabricating such devices, wherein the devices may include alternative combinations of materials for each of the layers included in the devices.
