Electron-injecting layer formed from a dopant layer for organic light-emitting structure
Abstract
An organic light-emitting device including a substrate; an anode disposed over the substrate; an organic light-emitting structure disposed over the anode; a cathode buffer layer disposed over the organic light-emitting structure and formed of a material selected to permit high energy deposition of a cathode; a cathode disposed over the cathode buffer layer; and a dopant layer disposed between the cathode buffer layer and the cathode and being provided with an electron-injecting dopant which diffuses across the buffer layer to provide an interfacial electron-injecting layer at the interface between the light-emitting structure and the cathode buffer layer.
