The structure of OLEDs with conventional heterostructure consists of anode, hole injection layer, hole transport layer, light-emitting layer, electron transport layer, electron injection layer, and cathode. NPB used as a hole transport layer and DPVBi used as a blue light emitting layer were graded-mixed at selected ratio. Interface at heterojunction between the hole transport layer and the elecrtron transport layer restricts device's stability. Mixing of the hole transport layerand the emitting layer removes abrupt interface between the hole transport. layer and the electron transport layer. The stability of OLED with graded mixed-layer developed in this study was improved.

The OLEDs(Organic Light-Emitting Diodes) structure organizes the bottom layer using glass, ITO(indium thin oxide), hole injection layer, hole transport layer, emitting material layer, electron transport layer, electron injection layer and cathode using metal. OLED has various advantages. OLEDs research has been divided into structural side and emitting material side. The amount of emitting light and luminescence efficiency has been improved by continuing effort for emitting material layer. The emitting light mechanism of OLEDs consists of electrons and holes injected from cathode and anode recombination in emitting material layer. The mobilities of injected electrons and holes are different. The mobility of holes is faster than that of electrons. In order to get high luminescence efficiency by recombine electrons and holes, the balance of their mobility must be set. The more complex thin film structure of OLED becomes, the more understanding about physical phenomenon in each interface is needed. This paper observed what the thickness change of hole transport layer has an affection through the below experiments. Moreover, this paper uses numerical analysis about carrier transport layer thickness change on the basis of these experimental results that agree with simulation results.

The structure of organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs) with typical heterostructure consists of anode, hole injection layer, hole transport layer, light-emitting layer, electron transport layer, electron injection layer, and cathode. 4,4bis[N-(1-napthyl)-N-phenyl-amino]-biphenyl(NPB) used as a hole transport layer and 4'4-bis(2,2'-diphenyl vinyl)-1,1'-biphenyl(DPVBi) used as a blue light emitting layer were graded-mixed at selected ratio. Interface at heterojunction between the hole transport layer and the elecrtron transport layer restricts carrier's transfer. Mixing of the hole transport layer and the emitting layer reduces abrupt interface between the hole transport layer and the electron transport layer. The operating voltage of OLED devices with graded mixed-layer structure is 2.8 V at 1 $cd/m^2$ which is significantly lower than that of OLED device with typical heterostructure. The luminance of OLED devices with graded mixed-layer structure is 21,000 $cd/m^2$ , which is much higher than that of OLED device with typical heterostructure. This indicates that the graded mixed-layer enhances the movement of carriers by reducing the discontinuity of highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO) of the interface between hole transport layer and emitting layer.

In this paper, we describe a versatile use of fullerene(C60) as a charge transporting material for organic light-emitting diodes. The use of fullerene as a buffer layer for an anode, a doping material for hole transport layer, and an electron transport layer was investigated. Fullerene improved the hole injection from an anode to a hole transport layer by lowering the interfacial energy barrier and enhanced the lifetime of the device as a doping material for a hole transport layer. In addition, it was also effective as an electron transporting material to get low driving voltage in the device.

The fabricated photovoltaic cells based on PIN heterojunctions, in this study, have a structure of ITO/poly(3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS)/donor/donor:C60(10nm)/C60(35nm)/2, 9-dimethyl-4, 7-diphenyl-1, 10-phenanthroline(8nm)/Al(100nm). The thicknesses of an active layer(donor:C60), an electron transport layer(C60), and hole/exciton blocking layer(BCP) were fixed in the organic photovoltaic cells. We investigated the performance characteristics of the PIN organic photovoltaic cells with copper phthalocyanine(CuPc), tetracene and pentacene as a hole transport layer. Discussion on the photovoltaic cells with CuPc, tetracene and pentacene as a hole transport layer is focussed on the dependency of the power conversion efficiency on the deposition rate and thickness of hole transport layer. The device performance characteristics are elucidated from open-circuit-voltage(Voc), short-circuit-current(Jsc), fill factor(FF), and power conversion efficiency($\eta$). As the deposition rate of donor is reduced, the power conversion efficiency is enhanced by increased short-circuit-current(Jsc). The CuPc-based PIN photovoltaic cell has the limited dependency of power conversion efficiency on the thickness of hole transport layer because of relatively short exciton diffusion length. The photovoltaic cell using tetracene as a hole transport layer, which has relatively long diffusion length, has low efficiency. The maximum power conversion efficiencies of CuPc, tetracene, and pentacene-based photovoltaic cells with optimized deposition rate and thickness of hole transport layer have been achieved to 1.63%, 1.33% and 2.15%, respectively. The photovoltaic cell using pentacene as a hole transport layer showed the highest efficiency because of dramatically enhanced Jsc due to long diffusion length and strong thickness dependence.

We were designed the hole transport layer of the new composite skeleton structure having a high charge mobility and thermal stability. In this paper, a hole transport layer material based on thiophene molecular structure capable of hole mobility characteristics and high triplet energy was designed and synthesized. The structures and properties of the synthesized compounds were characterized by NMR, fluorescence spectroscopy and energy band gap. As a result of NMR measurement, it was confirmed that when analyzing the integrated type with the position where the measured peak is displayed, it agrees with the structure of hole transport materials. The emission characteristics of the hole transport layer material showed absorption characteristics at 412 nm and 426 nm, respectively, and exhibited emission characteristics in the range of 469 nm and 516 nm.

We have developed inverted green phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) using 1,1-bis[(di-4-tolylamino)phenyl]cyclohexane (TAPC) and bis(carbazole-9-yl)biphenyl (CBP) hole transport layers. The driving voltage, current efficiency, power efficiency, and emission characteristics of devices were investigated. While the driving voltage for the same current density was about 1~2 V lower in the devices with the TAPC layer, the maximum luminance was higher in the device with the CBP layer. The maximum current efficiency and power efficiency were 3.2 and 2.7 times higher in the device with the CBP layer, respectively. The higher efficiency in the CBP device resulted from the enhanced hole-electron balance although weak parasitic recombination takes place in the CBP hole transport layer.

The OLED research is gone for two directions. One is material development research, and another one is structural improvement part. All two are thing to heighten luminescence efficiency of OLED. n other to improve luminescence efficiency of OLED Electron - hole pairs must consist much more in the device Their profiles are sensitive to mobility velocity of electrons and holes. In this paper, we demonstrate the difference of velocity between hole and electron by experiments, and compare with a data of simulation and experiment changing hole carrier transport layer thickness, so we get the optimal we improve luminescence efficiency. We suggest improving the efficiency of OLEDS would be to balance the injection of electrons and holes into light emission layer of the device. And, we improve understanding of the various luminescence efficiency through experiments and numerical analysis of luminescence efficiency in variable hole carrier transport layer's thickness.

We have synthesized poly(3-hexylthiophene) and studied the optical properties of P3HT for applying to the red emitting materials of organic electroluminescent device. Usually, an organic EL device is composed of single layer like anode/emitting layer/cathode, but additional layer such as hole transport, electron transport and buffer layer is deposited to improve device efficiency. In this study, Multilayer EL devices were fabricated using tris(8-hydroxyquinolinate) aluminum($Alq_3$) as electron transport material, (N,N'-diphenyl-N,,N'(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'diamine))(TPD) as hole transport/electron blocking materials and LiF as buffer layer. That is, a device structure of ITO/blending layer(TPD+P3HT)/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al was employed. In the Multilayer device, the luminance of $10{\mu}W/cm^2$ obtained at 10V. And, we present the experimental evidence of the enhancement of the Foster energy transfer interaction in emitting layer.
