The efficiency enhancement of single-layer solution-processed blue phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes by hole injection layer modification

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(styrenesulfonate) PEDOT : PSS is extensively used as a hole injection layer (HIL) in solution-processed organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). The high work function of a HIL is crucial in improving OLED efficiency. The work function of PEDOT : PSS is usually a...
