Hole Transport Layer Materials
Hole transport layer (HTL) materials are optimized to facilitate the movement of holes within electronic devices and optoelectronic devices. Often referred to as electron blocking layer materials, they play a critical role in ensuring efficient charge transport, reducing recombination losses, and enhancing overall device performance.
The key features of hole transport layer materials include:
High LUMO energy levelExcellent hole mobilityElectron-blocking capabilityThe common HTL material spiro-OMeTAD exhibits a high-lying LUMO energy level and excellent hole mobility. In addition to these key features, spiro-OMeTAD is solution-processable, a characteristic shared by many organic semiconducting materials used as hole transport layers. This processability makes it suitable for scalable fabrication methods.
To maximise the hole transport properties many HTL materials are used in combination with p-type dopants such as F4TCNQ. These dopants enhance conductivity by increasing the density of free charge carriers, further improving the efficiency and performance of the device.
