High-Performance perovskite quantum dots light-emitting diodes with hole transport layer engineering and synergetic outcoupling enhancement

초록

Perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diodes (PeQLEDs) are frequently considered as the most promising alternatives to organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). However, the efficiency of PeQLEDs remains inferior to OLEDs due to suboptimal charge carrier transport and intrinsic light outcoupling efficiency (eta out). out ). Herein, a combination of hole transport layer (HTL) engineering and substrate engineering is demonstrated to improve the charge injection and eta out of PeQLEDs. To replace the conventional PEDOT:PSS, a novel HTL bilayer based on modified PEDOT:PSS and PVK with a lower refractive index and fewer trap densities at the HTL-QDs interface is developed. Additionally, this study identifies the ideal thickness of ITO for achieving optimal eta out of PeQLEDs through optical simulations and experimental validation. Based on the synergistic use of HTL bilayer and 70-nmthick ITO, the PeQLEDs achieved an optimal external quantum efficiency of 17.96 % at a luminance of 1763 cd/ m2 2 and 15.19% at 8300 cd/m2 2 without using any external outcoupling structure, indicating a low efficiency roll- off.
