Notes:
By comparing the quantum efficiencies of light emission in a series of poly[2-methoxy-5(2′ethyl)hexoxy-phenylenevinylene] diodes with calcium cathodes and various anode metals, we show that, in all cases electrons are the majority carrier and recombination is limited by hole injection. These conclusions are confirmed by the examination of a second series of samples in which alkanethiol barrier layers of varying thickness, are deposited on a gold anode. The highest external quantum efficiency was achieved in these experiments using a clean, semitransparent gold anode. We suggest that electron and hole injection rates play the primary role in determining current balance and that mobilities play a minor role. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
