Abstract
Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) is widely used in optoelectronic devices due to its excellent hole current conductivity and suitable work function. However, imbalanced carrier injection in the PEDOT:PSS layer impedes obtaining high-performance perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). In this work, a novel poly[(9,9-dioctylfluorenyl-2,7-diyl)-co-(4,40-(N-(p-butylphenyl))diphenylamine)] (TFB) is applied as the hole transport layers (HTLs) to facilitate the hole injection with cascade-like energy alignment between PEDOT:PSS and methylammonium lead tribromide (MAPbBr3) film. Our results indicate that the introduced TFB layer did not affect the surface morphology or lead to any additional surface defects of the perovskite film. Consequently, the optimal PeLEDs with TFB HTLs show a maximum current efficiency and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 21.26 cd A-1 and 6.68%, respectively. Such EQE is 2.5 times higher than that of the control devices without TFB layers. This work provides a facile and robust route to optimize the device structure and improve the performance of PeLEDs.
