Abstract

p-Type molecular doping of organic materials with high ionization energies (IEs) of above 5.50 eV is still a challenge, limiting the use of doping in high-performance organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Here, we investigate the molecular dopant hexacyano-trimethylene-cyclopropane (CN6-CP) with a high electron affinity of 5.87 eV as p-dopant in OLEDs. We show that CN6-CP can be used not only as a dopant in the traditional hole transport material 4,4'-cyclohexylidenebis[ N, N-bis(4-methylphenyl)benzenamine] (TAPC, IE = 5.50 eV) but also effectively dopes the host material tris(4-carbazoyl-9-ylphenyl)amine (TCTA, IE = 5.85 eV), reaching a conductivity of 1.86 × 10
