Abstract

We control the work function and the surface energy of the MoO3/Au/MoO3 (MAM) anode of OLEDs by modifying the top MoO3 layer via vapor phase deposition. The performance and stability of the device are significantly altered depending on the dipole direction of the selfassembled monolayer (SAM) with permanent dipole moment inserted between N,N′-Bis(naphthalen-1-yl)-N,N′-bis(phenyl)benzidine (NPB) film and a MAM anode as well as on the interfacial wetting between the SAM and NPB layer. A CF3-terminated monolayer on a MAM electrode improved the performance and stability of the OLEDs relative to a reference device with only a MAM electrode, demonstrating that coating with SAMs via vapor phase deposition is an effective method to engineer the interface of MAM electrode optoelectronic devices.
