Abstract

We describe the use of carbon dots (C-Dots) as selective contacts for electronic holes in inverted hybrid light-emitting diodes. Moreover, we have studied the effect of the C-Dots’ amine-derivative surface ligands and their impact on the device performance. The different surface ligands affect not only the optical properties of the C-Dots but also the device turn-on voltage and the luminance parameters despite not forming part of the emissive layer. For instance, the C-Dots capped with the aromatic ring p-phenylenediamine show unfavorable effects, whereas the effect of nonaromatic capping ligands depends upon the length of their molecular backbone.
