Abstract

The carrier transport properties in the emissive layer of phosphorescent polymer organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) were observed by time-of-flight (TOF) mobility measurements. The hole and electron mobilities in carrier transport polymer without iridium complexes were measured with high levels, 3 × 10-4 cm2/Vs (hole) and 1 × 10-3 cm2/Vs (electron), of non-dispersive transport. The hole and/or electron transport properties were degraded when the iridium complexes were included in the phosphorescent polymers. The complexes acted as a trap in the phosphorescent polymers when the energy levels of the iridium complexes were lower than that of the carrier transport polymer.
