Description
- This application is a divisional application of and claims priority to a pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/014,508, filed Dec. 16, 2004.
- The present invention relates generally to light-emitting devices and, more particularly, to organic light-emitting diodes.
- Organic light-emitting diodes OLEDs are known in the art. For example, Kido et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 6,013,384) discloses, as shown in
FIG. 1 a, an organicelectroluminescent device 10 wherein the organic layers consist of a hole transport layer (HTL) 13, anemissive layer 14 and a metal-dopedorganic compound layer 15 disposed between ananode layer 12 and acathode layer 16. The device is fabricated on asubstrate 11. According to Kido et al., the organic compounds which can be used in the formation of the emissive layer, the electron transport layer and the metal-doped layer in the OLED device, include polycyclic compounds, condensed polycyclic hydrocarbon compounds, condensed heterocyclic compounds, etc. The dopant in the metal-doped organic compound layer is a metal having a work function of less than or equal to 4.2 eV. The emissive layer can be made of 8-tris-hydroxyquinoline aluminum (Alq3) among many metal-chelated complex compounds, for example. Thehole transport layer 13, as well as a hole injection layer, can be made of an arylamine compound. Theanode layer 12 is made of ITO and thecathode 16 is an aluminum layer. - Weaver et al. (U.S. Publication No. 2004/0032206 A1) discloses another OLED including an alkali metal compound layer. As shown in
FIG. 1 b, the OLED 20 is fabricated on aplastic substrate 21 pre-coated with anITO anode 22. The cathode consists of two layers: ametal oxide layer 28 deposited over alayer 27 of Mg or Mg alloy. The alkalimetal compound layer 26 can be made of alkali halides or alkali oxides such as LiF and Li2O. The organic layers include anHTL layer 23, an emissive layer (EML) 24 and an electron transport layer (ETL) 25. In particular, a layer of copper-phthalocyanine (CuPc) is deposited to a thickness of about 10 nm thick over theITO anode 22 to improve hole injection and device lifetime. TheHTL 23 of 4,4′-[N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenyl-amino]biphenyl (NPB) is deposited to a thickness of about 30 nm over the CuPc. TheEML 24 of 4,4′-N,N′-dicarbazole-biphenyl (CBP) doped with fac-tris (2-phenylpyridine-)-iridium (Ir(ppy)3) is deposited to a thickness of 30 nm over the NPB. A hole blocking layer of aluminum(III)bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinato)4-phenylphenolate (BAlq) is deposited to a thickness of about 10 nm over the EML. TheETL 25 of Alq3 is deposited to a thickness of about 40 μm over the BAlq. Thelayer 26 of LiF about 0.5-1 nm thick is deposited after the Alq3 and before the Mg alloy (including Mg:Ag). - Raychaudhuri et al. U.S. Pat. No. 6,579,629 B1) discloses an OLED 30 (see
FIG. 1 c) wherein theanode 32 is made from ITO disposed on asubstrate 31; theHIL 33 is made from a fluorinated polymer CFx, where x is 1 or 2; theHTL 34 is made from an aromatic tertiary amine such as NPB; the EML 35 is made from Alq3:C545T, with C545T being 1H,5H,11H-[1]Benzopyrano[6,7,8-ij]quinolizin-11-one, 10-(2-benzothiazolyl)-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1,1,7,7-tetramethyl-(9CI); theETL 36 is made from Alq3, the buffer structure comprises afirst buffer layer 37 made from LiF, and asecond buffer layer 38 made from CuPc; and the cathode is made from Al:Li (3 w %). - Hung et al.
