Abstract: | Highly efficient and bright organic light-emitting diodes have been realized by inserting a thin insulating lithium fluoride (LiF) layer in the tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq/sub 3/) with conventional organic layers. By comparing the performances of newly devised devices as a function of the position of the LiF in the Alq/sub 3/ layer, the authors propose the optimal position of the LiF in the Alq/sub 3/ layer. Experimental results show that the efficiency and brightness of the newly devised device with LiF in the Alq/sub 3/ layer were seven times higher than that without LiF in the Alq/sub 3/ layer. |
