采用不同比例的Ca/Mg/Al合金和纯Ca/Al合金阴极分别制备结构为ITO/Mo O_3(30nm)/NPB(40nm)/TCTA(10nm)/CBP:R-4B(30nm)/TPBI(10nm)/Alq3(30nm)/Ca:Mg(X%):Al(100nm)和ITO/Mo O3(30nm)/NPB(40nm)/TCTA(10nm)/CBP:R-4B(30nm)/TPBI(10nm)/Alq3(30nm)/Ca:Al(100nm)的红光有机电致发光二极管(OLED)器件及其对应的电子型器件,研究了阴极材料对器件的影响。结果发现,Ca/Mg/Al合金阴极可以提高阴极发射电子能力。当Mg掺杂质量比为20%时,器件具有最优性能,在电压为13 V时,发光亮度为10250 cd/m2,电流密度为57.099 m A/cm2,最大电流效率为18.8426 cd/A,效率较高且滚降比较平缓。原因为载流子注入比较平衡,形成了较多的激子。
A novel type of cathode material,Mg-doped Ca:Al alloy,was successfully developed for fabrication of red organic light emitting diode( OLED) devices. The impact of the Mg-content on the performance of the red OLED devices was experimentally investigated. The preliminary results show that depending on the Mg-content,the Mg-doping significantly affects the emission characteristics of the red OLED cathode. To be specific,doped at a Mgcontent of 20%,the Mg-doped Ca:Al cathode was found to display the optimized emission property. Powered at 13 V,the newly-developed red OLED cathode has a light emission intensity of 10250 cd / m2,an emission current density of 57. 099 m A / cm2 and the highest current efficiency of 18. 8426 cd / A. The fairly high and smoothly decreasing current-efficiency may possibly originate from the fact that the relatively balanced injection of electrons and holes results in formation of more excitons.
