Abstract

The device structure: ITO/O-PPV/CuPc/Alq3/Al, was fabricated, in which the films of poly 2-methoxy-5-nonyloxy-1, 4 phenylene vinylene (O-PPV) were treated with two ways: drying in vacuum for 15 hours and no drying, respectively. The results show that the electroluminescence (EL) of the sample cell with drying O-PPV film comes from the emission of O-PPV and the intensity of Alq3 is greatly improved in undrying O-PPV film with the same applied voltage (12 V) due to the hole-electron recombination area changing. It is evidence that the transport property of the carrier with un-drying O-PPV film is faster than that of drying film.
