Abstract In this paper the effect of Indium nanoparticles (NPs) on the electronic properties of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) is experimentally investigated. The metal NPs which are added to the hole transfer layer can be considered as a blocker layer for injected electrons. By optimizing hole and electron ratio, current density and voltage can be decreased. In order to study this effect, among various fabricated devices, a specific structure, namely ITO/PEDOT:PSS (50 nm)/TPD (45 nm)/NPs (x nm)/Alq3 (50 nm)/Ag (80 nm) has been used. Also, the experiment is investigated for Au and Cu as different cathode the results of structures are compared with Ag cathode. A manually controllable shutter was used for vacuum deposition process to prepare the same structures and to avoid any disturbing effects. It is observed that specific Indium NPs reduce current density and turn on voltage of the device. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.

ITO thin films and ITO/Ag/ITO multilayered films were prepared on glass substrate by reactive thermal evaporation technique without intentionally heating the substrate. After deposition the films were annealed in air at three different temperatures (300°C, 420°C and 540°C). The thickness of each layer in the ITO/Ag/ITO films was kept constant at 50 nm/10 nm/40 nm. The opto-electrical and structural properties of ITO/Ag/ITO multilayered films were compared with conventional ITO single-layer films. Although both films had identical thickness, 100 nm, the ITO/Ag/ITO films showed a lower resistivity. XRD spectra showed that Ag intermediate layer had a small effect on crystalline properties of ITO/Ag/ITO films. © 2010 IACS.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films were deposited onto flexible polyimide substrates using RF sputtering system at room temperature. The deposited films were then heat treated at different temperatures in air and vacuum atmospheres. The structural variations and as consequence the electro-optical characteristic variations of the films were systematically investigated as a function of post annealing temperature and atmosphere. The structure of the films was studied by means of XRD and SEM techniques and the electro-optical characteristics were measured by four point probe and spectrophotometer, respectively. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
