Abstract

Cathodes made with Al-LiF or Al-CsF composites are found to greatly enhance the performance of organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). With a composite cathode, devices based on an organic bilayer structure have shown lower operating voltage, higher efficiency, and better forward light output than devices with LiF/Al, Mg, or Al cathode. Unlike devices with an Al and Li alloy cathode, OLEDs with a composite cathode can be made with good reproducibility.
