A new information society of late has arrived by the rapid development of various information & communications technologies. Accordingly, mobile devices which are light and thin, easy and convenient to carry on the market. Also, the requirements for the larger television sets such as fast response speed, low-cost electric power, wider visual angle display are sufficiently satisfied. The currently most widely studied display material, the Organic Light-emitting Diodes(OLEDs) overwhelms the Liquid Crystal Display(LCD), the main occupier of the market. This new material features a response speed of more than a thousand times faster, no need of backlight, a low driving voltage, and no limit of view angle. And the OLEDs has high luminance efficiency and excellent durability and environment resistance, quite different from the inorganic LED light source. The OLEDs with simple device structure and easy produce can be manufactured in various shapes such as a point light source, a linear light source, a surface light source. This will surely dominate the market for the next generation lighting and display device. The new display utilizes not the glass substrate but the plastic one, resulting in the thin and flexible substrate that can be curved and flattened out as needed. In this paper, OLEDs device was produced by changing thickness of Teflon-AF of hole injection material layer. And as for the electrical properties, the four layer device of ITO/TPD/Alq3/BCP/LiF/Al and the five layer device of ITO/Teflon AF/TPD/Alq3/BCP/Lif/Al were studied experimentally.
In this research, the electric characteristic of organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs) was studied depending on thickness of amorphous fluoropolymer(Teflon-AF) which is the material of hole injection layer to improve electric characteristic of OLEDs. Sample composition was fabricated in double layer. The basic structure was fabricated by ITO/tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3)/Al and the 2 layer was fabricated by ITO/2,2-Bistrifluoromethyl-4,5-Difluoro-1,3-Dioxole(Teflon-AF)/tris(8-hydro xyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3)/Al. The experiment was carried with variation of thickness of Teflon-AF at 1.0, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 nm. The result showed when Teflon-AF thickness was 2.5 nm, the electric and optical characteristic were well performed. Moreover, when it was compared with Teflon-AF without materials, it was improved 15.1 times more on luminance, 12.7 times more on luminous efficiency and 12.1 times more on external quantum efficiency. Therefore, OLEDs element with optimum hole injection layer reduced energy barrier and driving voltage, and confirmed that it improved efficiency widely.
