The performance of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) film is highly dependent on its in organic optoelectronic devices Conductivity and work function. Significant improvements of conductivity and work function are achieved by irradiation of PEDOT:PSS film in vacuum under 254 nm ultraviolet light. The mechanism for such an improvement is investigated by current-voltage measurement, X-ray photo electron energy spectrum and atomic force microscopy. A surface degradation and the composition change are found after ultraviolet irradiation. The height of the injection barrier in a hole-only device fabricated with UV-treated PEDOT:PSS film is decreased effectively. Our results reveal that UV treatment is capable of modifying the conductivity and work function of PEDOT:PSS film thus allowing them be tuned to the device application.
Keywords:Physical electronics; conductivity; work function
