The present application belongs to the technical field of photoelectric materials and devices, and relates to a method for improving the performance of
copper-
iodine cluster electroluminescent diodes by using a
carbazole phosphonic acid-based self-assembled
monolayer with methoxy substitution and conjugate extension. In view of the problems of
electrode corrosion, interface
exciton quenching and poor running stability caused by the acidity of traditional
hole transport layer materials, the present application introduces a self-assembled
monolayer with a π-conjugated skeleton and strong
electron-donating methoxy substitution between the
anode and the
copper-
iodine cluster light-emitting layer, thereby realizing multi-dimensional regulation of the interface characteristics of the device. The key of the method lies in the use of the strong p-pi conjugation effect between the methoxy group and the
benzene ring in the introduced molecule and the extended π-conjugated skeleton, so as to realize the effective improvement of the
anode work function through a more significant interface
dipole effect, thereby optimizing the interface
energy level arrangement and reducing the hole injection barrier. At the same time, the introduction of the methoxy group in the self-assembled
interface layer improves the wettability of the
anode surface and reduces the
surface roughness, which is helpful to obtain a
copper-
iodine cluster film with low defect
state density, thereby inhibiting the non-radiative recombination loss at the interface. The copper-iodine cluster electroluminescent
diode prepared based on the interface regulation strategy improves the external
quantum efficiency and brightness of the device, significantly improves the turn-on characteristics and prolongs the running life of the device. The present application provides an
effective solution for constructing an efficient, stable and
environmentally friendly copper-iodine cluster electroluminescent
diode device by introducing an
interface layer with a specific functional structure.
