研究目的
To improve light extraction in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) by applying SnOx nanocones grown via thermal annealing in a low-O2 atmosphere.
研究成果
The study demonstrated that SnOx nanocones can significantly enhance light extraction in OLEDs through Mie scattering, leading to a 23% increase in external quantum efficiency. The nanocones also improved the viewing-angle characteristics of the OLEDs.
研究不足
The study focused on the fabrication and characterization of SnOx nanocones for light extraction enhancement in OLEDs. Potential limitations include the scalability of the fabrication process and the impact of the nanocones on the electrical properties of OLEDs.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the fabrication of SnOx nanocones through Sn thin-film deposition followed by thermal annealing in a low-O2 atmosphere. The diameter of the SnOx nanocones was controlled by varying the deposition thickness of Sn.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Sn thin films with nominal thicknesses of 25, 50, 100, and 200 nm were deposited on EXG glass substrates.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included an electron-beam evaporator for Sn deposition, a rapid thermal processor for annealing, SEM and AFM for surface morphology examination, and UV–visible–near-infrared spectrophotometer for optical property measurements.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Sn was deposited on cleaned glass substrates, followed by annealing at 550 ℃ for 1 h in a low-O2 atmosphere. The surface morphology and optical properties of the SnOx nanocones were then characterized.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The optical properties were analyzed using spectrophotometry, and the light extraction behavior was simulated using FDTD software.
