Abstract

Multiple fluorocarbon (CFx) and silicon nitride (Si3N4) bilayers were applied as encapsulation cap on glass-based organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). When CFx/Si3N4 bilayers were deposited onto the OLED structure, the devices showed performance worse than one without any encapsulation. The adverse effects were attributed to the damage caused by reaction species during the thin-film deposition processes. To solve this problem, a CuPc interlayer was found to provide effective protection to the OLED structure. With a structure of CuPc/(CFx/Si3N4)×5, the encapsulated device showed an operation lifetime over 8000 h (higher than 80% of that achieved with a conventional metal encapsulation).
