研究目的
Investigating the effects of Schottky injection barrier and carrier mobility on the charge balance in the QD layer of QLEDs to enhance their efficiency.
研究成果
The study demonstrated that modulating the Schottky injection barrier and carrier mobility can improve the charge balance in the QD layer, leading to enhanced current efficiency of QLEDs. However, achieving type 1 charge balance over the entire operation voltage requires fine-tuning of the Schottky injection barrier, carrier mobility, and concentration and the energy level of the charge traps together.
研究不足
The study's improvements were achieved only at a limited range of operation of the device. The charge balance was not maintained over the whole range of operation for the QLED displays. The effects of the modification of the Schottky injection barrier and/or the insertion of the insulating layer were very limited in improving the efficiency and lifetime of the QLED displays.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved modulating the Schottky injection barrier and carrier mobility in QLEDs to analyze their effects on charge balance. Theoretical models were used to predict the J-V relationship in semiconducting layers.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Single-carrier devices (EOD and HOD) and QLED devices were prepared with varying MgO doping concentrations in ZnO ETL and TAPC doping in PVK HTL to study their J-V characteristics.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Instruments included a cross-sectional TEM, surface profiler (DektakXT stylus profiler, Bruker), absorption spectrometer (UV2600, Shimadzu), UPS, Keithley 2400 source meter, and spectroradiometer (CS-1000A, Konica Minolta). Materials included ZnO nanoparticles, MgO, TAPC, and CdSe/ZnS quantum dots.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The process involved cleaning ITO-coated glass substrates, spin-coating layers (PEDOT:PSS, PVK, QD, ZnO), doping ZnO with MgO and PVK with TAPC, and measuring J-V characteristics.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The J-V curves were analyzed to identify regions (Ohmic, T-SCLC, TFL, SCLC) and calculate effective mobility and charge balance.
