Investigation of Mixed-Host Organic Light Emitting Diodes
One of the limiting factors to the OLED stability or lifetime is the charge buildup at the bilayer heterojunction (HJ) between the hole transport layer (HTL) and electron transport layer (ETL). In recent years, this abrupt interface has been moderated by mixing HTL and ETL to form a single mixed-hos...
