Abstract

In this paper, the performance of the electrical properties (J-V) and surface roughness of MEH-PPV based organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) towards solvent effect was investigated. The MEH-PPV layer was deposited using spin coating technique at fixed spun speed of 3000 rpm. Two different solvents, toluene and chloroform (CHCl3) and mixture toluene:CHCl3 with the ratio of 4:1 and 1:4 were used to dilute MEH-PPV at fixed concentration of 5 mgml-1. Apparently, the mixture of solvent makes the surface roughness of the MEH-PPV films reduced to 0.15 nm and 3.59 nm under the ratio 4:1 and 1:4 respectively. Besides, the mixture solvents makes the value of turn on voltage was dropped to ∼7.2 V and ∼9 V respectively compared to non-mixture solvent. The combination of different solvent apparently gives an effect on the electrical and structural properties of organic light-emitting diode.
