Abstract
We have developed polymer-based inverted organic LEDs (iOLED) with a multilayered structure using orthogonal solvent, transfer-printing, improved meniscus-coating method that moves back and forth. Reciprocating the glass rod back and forth repeatedly, the material usage of electron-injection layers, polymeric light-emitting layer and polymeric hole-transporting layers were decreased to 1/10 for the film deposited onto the glass slide and to ca. 1/20 for the film deposited onto the elastomer stamp compared with the conventional spin-coating. We obtained higher external quantum efficiency (EQE) and lower operation voltage with solution processable metal oxide hole-injection layer and silver anode. The improvements in the threshold voltage and the maximum EQE were observed for the device with electron-transporting EIL, such as alcohol soluble phenanthroline derivative, which is an effective way to reduce the number of multilayers and the tact time for fabricating iOLEDs.
