Abstract
It has been shown that thin insulating film at the interface transparent conductive oxide/organic electroluminescent film could improve the performance of organic electroluminescent diodes (OLED). Such insulating film can be inorganic or organic. Poly-(tetrabromo-p-phenylenediselenide) (FBrPDSe) has been proved to be an efficient insulating film in OLED. The properties of these evaporated PBrPDSe thin films have been systematically studied by IR absorption, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, electron spin resonance and optical transmission measurements. It is shown that, when the deposition temperature is kept below the decomposition temperature of the polymer, tetrabromo-p-phenylenediselenide molecule is preserved during the deposition process. However the polymer, which is insoluble in powder form, becomes soluble after deposition. It can be concluded that films are mainly composed of oligomers of tetrabromo-p-phenylenediselenide.
The electrical properties of SnO2/PBrPDSe/Al thin films structures have been studied. The current-voltage characteristics exhibit a rectifying behaviour with a forward direction corresponding to a positive bias of the transparent conductive oxide film, the SnO2.
