Electroluminescence Spectra in Microcavity Organic Light-emitting Devices
Microcavity structure consisting of distributed Bragg reflector and metal silver mirror is designed. The structure is glass/DBR/ITO/TPD/Alq
3
/Ag.The tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum(Alq
3
) is the electron transport layer and the emissive layer
and the N
N-diphenyl-N
N-bis(3-methyl-phenyl)-1
1′biphenyl-4
4′diamine(TPD) is the hole-transport layer. Compared to the electroluminescence(EL) spectra of non-cavity OLEDs
the linewidth of the MOLEDs is narrower
and the emission peak is enhanced. So the microcavity effect is very observable. In this work
the matrix method was adopted.The dependence of the electroluminescence(EL) spectra on the cavity length
the emitting layer thickness
the position of the interface between EML and HTL and the position of the emission region was analysed detailedly. In all calculation
the thickness and refraction of ITO and the thickness of the metal silver were kept constant. The results show: 1.with increasing the thickness of cavity
the normalized electroluminescence(EL)intensity decreased continually; 2.with increasing the thickness of the emitting layer
the normalized EL intensity discontinuously changed; 3.because the electron mobility in Alq
3
is different from the hole mobility in TPD
the emitted radiation was strongly dependent on the position of the emissive layer inside the cavity. Finally
the emission region should be narrow at the center of the electric field in the resonant cavity to optimize MOLED.
