Organic devices with p-type doped hole transport layers are now well established. So far, n-type doped electron transport materials have been realized with alkali metals as dopants only, because the common matrices are rather weak electron acceptors. This demands for donor compounds with a very low ionization potential, which are generally difficult to handle. This limitation seemingly prevented n-type doping using very strong organic donors.
We present a study of n-type doping of phthalocyanine zinc (ZnPc) using metalorganic complexes as donors. ZnPc is generally considered as a p-type semiconductor. However, using the transition metal complexes as donors, we are able to achieve n-type conduction in this material. Conductivies in the order of 10−6 S/cm are observed and the conduction type was confirmed by field effect measurements.
This enabled us to realize the first stable organic p-n junctions constisting of p- and n-type doped layers of the same material (homo-junctions). They have very high built-in potentials. This does not only reflect the versatility of doping in organic devices, but pave a way to increase the open circuit voltage of organic solar cells and to use n-type doped electron transport layers in OLEDs.
