  • Organic electroluminescent (EL) devices are becoming of increasing interest for applications in the field of displays or lighting sources.
  • Such organic light emitting devices or organic light emitting diodes are electronic devices, which emit light if an electric potential is applied.
  • the structure of such OLEDs comprises, in sequence, an anode, an organic electroluminescent medium and a cathode.
  • the electroluminescent medium which is positioned between the anode and the cathode, is commonly comprised of an organic hole-transporting layer (HTL) and an electron-transporting layer (ETL).
  • HTL organic hole-transporting layer
  • ETL electron-transporting layer
  • the light is then emitted near the interface between HTL and ETL where electrons and holes combine, forming excitons.
  • HTL organic hole-transporting layer
  • ETL electron-transporting layer
  • multilayer OLEDs which additionally contain a hole-injection layer (HIL), and / or an electron-injection layer (EIL), and / or a hole-blocking layer (HBL), and / or an electron-blocking layer (EBL), and or other types of interlayers between the EML and the HTL and / or ETL, respectively.
  • HIL hole-injection layer
  • EIL electron-injection layer
  • HBL hole-blocking layer
  • EBL electron-blocking layer
  • EBL electron-blocking layer
  • a further improvement of the OLED performance can be achieved by the use of doped charge carrier transport layers as disclosed in EP 0498979 Al .
  • the ETL is doped with an electron donor such as an alkali metal
  • the HTL is doped with an electron acceptor, such as F4-TCNQ.
  • This redox type doping is based on a charge transfer reaction between the dopant and the matrix, releasing electrons (in the case of n-type doping) or holes (in the case of p-type doping) onto the charge carrier transport matrix.
  • the dopants remain as charged species in the matrix, in the case of n-type doping the electron donors are positively charged, in the case of p-type doping the acceptor dopants are negatively charged.
  • OLEDs using doped charge carrier transport layers are commonly known as PIN-OLEDs. They feature extremely low operating voltages, often being close to the thermodynamical limit set by the wavelength of the emitted light.
  • One requirement for doped organic layers in OLEDs is that the excitons created within the emission zone have energies high enough to create visible light. The highest energy is needed for an emission in the blue range of the spectrum with a wavelength of 400 - 475 nm. To allow for such light emission, the electroluminescent material requires a sufficient band gap, which is about the energy of the emitted photons, or higher. It is desirable to choose the energy levels of the HTL and ETL carefully, such that the energy levels match with the emission zone to avoid additional barriers within the OLED device. The energy levels are frequently identified as HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital) or LUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital). They can be related to the oxidation potential or the reduction potential of the material, respectively.
  • HOMO highest occupied molecular orbital
  • LUMO lowest unoccupied molecular orbital
  • redox potentials of materials can be provided as a voltage value vs. Fc / Fc + .
  • Fc/Fc + denotes the ferrocene / ferrocenium reference couple.
  • Redox potentials can be measured for instance by cyclovoltammetry in a suitable solution, for instance acetonitrile or tetra- hydrofuran. Details of cyclovoltammetry and other methods to determine reduction potentials and the relation of the ferrocene/ferrocenium reference couple to various reference electrodes can be found in A. J. Bard et al., ,Electrochemical Methods: Fundamentals and Applications", Wiley, 2 nd edition 2000.
  • the energy levels of the acceptor or donor dopants are of importance, too. They can be similarly established by electrochemical methods.
  • An alternative measure for the oxidation strength of the donor dopant molecule or the HOMO level energy can be ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS).
  • UPS ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy
  • the ionization potential is determined. It has to be distinguished, whether the experiment is carried out in the gas-phase or in the solid phase, i.e. by investigation of a thin film of the material. In the latter case, solid-state effects such as the polarization energy of the hole remaining in the solid after removal of the photoelectron give rise to deviations in the ionization potential as compared to gas-phase value.
  • a typical value for the polarization energy is around 1 eV (E. V. Tsiper et al., Phys. Rev. B 195124/1-12(2001).
  • stacked or cascaded OLED structures have been proposed, in which several individual OLEDs are vertically stacked.
  • the improvement of the OLED performance in such stacked organic electroluminescent devices is generally attributed to an overall reduction of the operating current density combined with an increased operating voltage, as the individual OLEDs are connected in a row.
  • Such a design leads to lower stress of the organic layers, since the current injected and transported within the organic layers is reduced.
  • the stacking of several OLED units in one device allows a mixing of different colours in one device, for example in order to generate white light emitting devices.
  • non-conductive charge generation layers (with a resistivity of not less than 10 5 ⁇ cm) was disclosed in US2003/0189401 Al.
  • a significant drawback of the approach is the fact, that the organic layers forming the p-n-junction are doped using inorganic elements and molecules with a small atom count.
  • the stacked OLED devices are subject to a rapid breakdown during operation, most likely due to a dopant migration.
  • Some molecular organic dopants having a somewhat higher atom count such as F4-TCNQ are known in literature, which might be used for p-type doped organic charge transport layers instead of inorganic compounds; however this measure alone does not improve the stability of the stacked OLED devices.
  • n-type doping could only be achieved by doping organic layers with alkali or earth alkali metals, which act as electron donors within organic layers.
  • metal salts and metal compounds is described (WO 03 / 044829 Al)
  • the doping effect in these cases can only be attributed to a cleavage of the salts or compounds that release the metals in an uncharged state.
  • One example is the doping with Cs 2 CO 3 , an inorganic salt that upon heating decomposes to release oxygen, CO 2 and caesium metal.
  • N-type doping with metals in stacked devices that contain a p-n- interface being driven in reverse direction leads to a rapid breakdown due to metal migration at the junction.
  • an electronic device comprising a layer structure of organic layers according to claim 1 is provided.
  • molecular dopants With the use of molecular dopants, degradation mechanisms that occur in the case of doping with metals or small molecule dopants, can be minimized or even completely avoided.
  • molecular it is referred to inorganic or organic compounds that consist of more than six atoms within the dopant molecule. More favourable, the number of atoms forming the dopant molecules is larger than twenty.
  • the molecular dopants are organic or inorganic molecules, but may also be molecular salts, i.e. salts that consist of at least two charged molecular subunits forming a salt.
  • the molecular dopants might also be charge transfer complexes in which only a partial charge transfer between the constituting units occurs. In both cases at least one of the subunits forming the molecular salt or the molecular charge transfer complex also fulfils the above definition, namely an atom count of larger than six.
  • all the subunits forming the molecular salt or the molecular charge transfer complex fulfil the above definition, namely an atom count of larger than six.
  • the dopand molecule preferably does not comprise alkali metals since they are very prone to diffusion within the transport layers, which limits lifetime and thermal stability drastically.
  • a reduction potential of the p-type dopant is equal or larger than about 0 V vs. Fc / Fc +
  • an oxidation potential of the n-type dopant is equal or smaller than about -1.5 V vs. Fc / Fc + .
  • the reduction potential of the p-type dopant is equal or larger than about 0.18 V vs. Fc / Fc + , preferably equal or larger than about 0.24 V vs. Fc / Fc + .
  • the oxidation potential of the n- type dopant is equal or smaller than about -2.0 V vs. Fc / Fc + , preferably equal or smaller than about -2.2 V vs. Fc / Fc + .
  • An alternative measure for the oxidation strength of the donor dopant molecule can be ultra- violet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). If measured by means of this method, an ionization potential of the donor dopant is equal or lower than about 5.5 eV, preferably equal or lower than about 5 eV, preferably equal or lower than about 4.8 eV measured in the solid state. If measured in the gas phase, the ionization potential of the donor dopant is equal or lower than about 4.5 eV, preferably equal or lower than about 4 eV, more preferably equal or lower than about 3.8 eV. These values correspond to the onset of photoemission at the high kinetic energy side, i.e. the weakest bound photoelectrons.
  • the proposed p-n-junction is also beneficial for stacked organic photovoltaic devices, as the open circuit voltage might be increased to a maximum of n-times the photon energy.
  • Fur- thermore in current organic photovoltaic devices, only less than 50% of the incident light is absorbed in the photoactive layer. The stacking of photovoltaic devices thus allows harvesting of more than 50% of the incident light due to the presence of more than one photoactive layer in the stack.
  • Fermi-level of the n-doped layer is determined by the ionization potential of the donor dopant.
  • a backward bias or backward voltage is applied to a p-n-junction, if electrons are injected into the p-type doped transport layer from the electrode and holes are injected into the n-type doped transport layer from the other electrode. If the p-n-junction is not sandwiched between electrodes, a backward operation is given in the case, where the applied field is such, that electrons negative charges are moving from the p-type doped layer of the junction into the n- type doped layer of the junction and positive charges are moving in the opposite direction.
  • the fixation of dopants is preferably ensured by the high molecular weight of the dopant (> 300 g / mol) as well as the high atomic count of the compounds, preventing it from a migration into the n- type or p-type doped layer, respectively.
  • the matrix material is preferably constituted of materials with a T g larger than about 75 °C, preferably of larger than about 100 °C, more preferably of larger than about 120 0 C. This value is an important factor for the dopants mobility; higher T g values lead to a stronger fixation of the dopant within the organic charge carrier transport layers.
  • the overall stability of the p-n-interface at the junction between the PIN-OLED units depends on both the T g of the matrix and the size of the dopants. A system consisting of a smaller dopant within a matrix with a high T g might be less stable than a larger size molecular dopant within a transport matrix having a lower T g .
  • the stability of the electronic device is increased if the thermal stability of the doped layers forming the p-n-junction is increased.
  • the thermal stability of a doped layer can be measured by heating the doped layer with a heating rate, for instance 1 K/min and monitoring the conductivity of the layer. As for any semiconductor, during the heating the conductivity increases. At a certain temperature (breakdown temperature), the conductivity decreases again because of morphological activities of the doped layer.
  • the matrix is preferably constituted of materials that have a breakdown temperature of greater than 75 °C, preferably of larger than 100 °C. The breakdown temperature increases with the T g of the matrix material and the atom count of the dopant molecule.
  • vapour pressure Another measure for the stability of the dopant molecule is its vapour pressure.
  • the vapour pressure at certain temperature is lowered with increasing the atom count of a compound. This is especially the case for conjugated molecules with high polarizability.
  • the van-der-Waals forces lead to a strong interaction of the molecules requiring more energy for vaporization.
  • the same van-der-Waals forces lead to strong interaction of the dopant molecule in the host material causing a fixation of the dopant in the doped layer. Consequently, a low vapour pressure of the dopant molecule can be beneficial for a stability of the doped layer and junctions formed with that doped layers.
  • evaporation temperature refers to the temperature, to which the dopant molecule has to be heated in a evaporator source in order to have the target deposition rate at the position of a substrate place over the source.
  • the deposition rate R can be written as M P e A
  • M is the molar mass of the evaporated compound
  • k is Boltzmann's constant
  • T is the source temperature
  • p is the density of the film
  • P is the vapour pressure
  • A is the source area
  • r is the distance of source and substrate plane.
  • dopants with a deposition rate of 0.005 nm/s at an evaporation temperature of about 120 °C or higher, preferably a temperature of about 140 °C or higher can be used to fabricate a stable p-n-junction.
  • a low vapour pressure, i.e. a high evaporation temperature is preferred to produce further stabilization of the p-n-junction in a manufacturing process. This is because a dopant molecule with a high volatility will lead to a contamination of the adjacent layers, especially the adjacent doped layer of the p-n-junction due to the high background pressure of the volatile dopant in the process chamber.

  • Another advantage of such a multilayer architecture of the p-type or n-type doped transport layers of the units is, to reduce costs, if the more stable charge carrier transport matrix is more expensive than less stable alternative materials.
  • the material costs will necessarily be high due to the costs of the starting materials for the synthesis. This will even then be the case if the material is manufactured in mass production, which for standard organic materials usually leads to a significant cost reduction.
