Abstract
Thermal stability is one of the key technical challenges in developing high brightness organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this study, thermal catastrophic failure, a process involving temperature-induced abrupt device breakdown, is found to have a high degree of correlation to the glass transition process of the organic molecules. It is also found that C60-organic nano-composites can be used effectively to increase the glass transition temperature of the organic small molecular thin-films leading to the improvement of the thermal stability of OLEDs. In addition, a universal mathematical formula with only one variable, concentration, is discovered to quantify well the glass transition temperatures of all C60 nano-composites. The thermal catastrophic failure temperature of OLEDs with C60 nano-composites as a hole transport layer is found to be proportional to the glass transition temperature of C60 nano-composites.
