Abstract
Developing an insoluble cross-linkable hole transport layer (HTL) plays an important role for solution-processed quantum dots light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) to fabricate a multilayer device with separated quantum dots layers and HTLs. In this work, a facile photothermal synergic cross-linking strategy is simultaneous annealing and UV irradiation to form the high-quality cross-linked film as the HTL without any photoinitiator, which efficiently reduces the cross-linking temperature to the low temperature of 130 °C and enhances the hole mobility of the 3-vinyl-9-{4-[4-(3-vinylcarbazol-9-yl)phenyl]phenyl}carbazole (CBP-V) thin films. The obtained high-quality cross-linked CBP-V films exhibited smooth morphology, excellent solvent resistance, and high mobility. Moreover, the high-performance red, green, and blue (RGB) QLEDs are successfully fabricated by using the photothermal synergic cross-linked HTLs, which achieved the maximum external quantum efficiency of 25.69, 24.42, and 16.51%, respectively. This work presents a strategy of using the photothermal synergic cross-linked HTLs for fabrication of high-performance QLEDs and advancing their related device applications.
