Optimization of Excimer Forming Zone and Doping Engineering in Ultraviolet Organic Light-emitting Device
Ultraviolet organic light-emitting devices (UVOLEDs) were constructed by using hole-transport-emitting layer of 4
4'-bis(carbazol-9-yl)biphenyl (CBP) and electron-transport-emitting layer of 3-(4-biphenyl)-4-phenyl-5-tert-butylphenyl-1

4-triazole (TAZ). The excimer forming zone was optimized by adjusting the functional layer thickness
which contriuted to device performance improvement. Our results indicate that the thickness variation of CBP has negligible effect on device performance while that of TAZ shows considerable effect. The maximum radiance of 4.4 mW/cm

@270 mA/cm

and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 0.94%@12.5 mA/cm

are achieved in UVOLED with optimal thickness of 50 nm CBP and 30 nm TAZ. The electroluminescence peak of ~410 nm and shoulder of ~380 nm
resulted from CBP and TAZ
respectively
are observed. Moreover
an ultrathin layer of[CBP:TAZ] inserted between CBP and TAZ accelerates excimer recombination rate and reduces driving voltage. Meanwhile
the carrier balance is improved and thus device efficiency is slightly promoted (the maximum EQE reaches 0.97%@20 mA/cm

) without altering spectrum characteristics.
