The present work shows the inverted InP quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QD-LEDs) with inorganic metal oxide layers. In the inverted structure of ITO/ZnO/InP QDs/CBP/MoO3/Al, a sol–gel derived ZnO film was used as an electron transport layer (ETL) and MoO3 was used as a hole injection layer (HIL). In contrary to high annealing temperature (>200 °C) for conventional ZnO films, low temperature annealing (∼150 °C) was performed for sol–gel derived ZnO film. The performance of the inverted QD-LEDs was efficiently improved by optimization of the annealing time and temperature of ZnO ETL. The current efficiency was significantly improved about 215% by lowering annealing temperature of ZnO ETL. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
