摘要
To improve the performance of bottom-emission organic light-emitting diodes (BEOLEDs), the effect of oxygen plasma treatment duration on the electrical properties of multi-metal Ni/Ag/Ni thin film anode was investigated. The results revealed that a Ni/Ag/Ni thin-film layer formed upon oxygen plasma treatment for 60 s. Our indium-free bottom-emission OLEDs effectively increased the electrical and optical properties by improving their electron-hole recombination and doing a strong micro-cavity effect with the semitransparent multi-metal anode. The green bottom-emission OLEDs show a luminance of 14,280 cd/m(2), a luminous efficiency of 8.5 cd/A, external quantum efficiency 2.6% EQE, a Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage coordinates of (0.32, 0.58) on flexible substrate.
