Abstract
A novel organic hyperbranched copper phthalocyanine was synthesized for use as a hole injection nanolayer on ITO in organic lightβemitting diodes (OLEDs). This material is soluble in organic solvents which allows for processing under anhydrous conditions, unlike water based conventional polymer hole injection layer materials such as poly(3,4βethylenedioxythiophene)(PEDOT)/polystyrene sulfonate (PSS). The hyperbranched layer increased the luminous efficiency and brightness of single layer OLED devices, in addition to reducing current leakage which causes crosstalk in panel devices, compared to devices prepared from PEDOT/PSS. Therefore, this material is more suitable for OLED applications due to its processing and performance advantages over conventional commercial conducting polymer compositions.

In the application of polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs), to prevent etching of ITO by the acidic poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), the pHneutral PEDOT:PSS was introduced as the hole injection layer (HIL). For the double layer PEDOT:PSS HIL, the pH-neutral PEDO
Organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) with MoO x , Ag 2 O and a composite layer consisting of Ag 2 O//MoO x as hole injection layers (HIL) have been investigated. We have observed that the insertion of such a composite layer leads to a striking improvement in the electrical properties with lower dr
