Abstract

In this paper, Metal–organic framework (MOF) derivatives are introduced, and their optical and electrical properties have been investigated. The effect of Au-SH-SiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) supported on the metal–organic framework (Au-SH-SiO2@Cu-MOF) as a new electron injection layer (EIL) for organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) was studied. Devices with fundamental structure of ITO/PEDOT:PSS (55 nm)/PVK (60 nm)/MEHPPV (30 nm)/MOFs (25 nm)/Al (150 nm) were fabricated. A device fabricated with Au-SH-SiO2@Cu-MOF as an electron injection layer (EIL) showed a lower driving voltage and a higher luminescence efficiency than a device with SH-SiO2@Cu-MOF and a device with Cu-MOF.
