Popis: | Light emitting field-effect transistors (LEFETs) are a class of next generation devices which combine the switching properties of field-effect transistors (FETs) with light emitting capabilities of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) in a single device architecture. Current LEFET architectures suffer from inefficient charge injection of electrons and holes from the source and drain electrodes, leading to unbalanced charge transport and hence poor device performance. Here we report a simple fabrication method for LEFETs that delivers asymmetric source and drain electrodes comprised of low and high work function materials. The interdigitated low and high work function source–drain electrodes consist of combinations of organic materials, salts, metal oxides and metals. Using this method we were able to obtain a maximum EQE of up to 1.2% in a single layer device with Super Yellow as the active material. |
