Abstract

TPBi is an organic semiconductor used in the fabrication of OLEDs. Studies have shown that the outcoupling efficiency of OLEDs can be greatly increased by introducing a periodic corrugation in the layers of the device. This study explores the crystallization of TPBi, which forms platelet-like crystals with a sinusoidal pattern upon annealing. The factors that influence the d-spacing of the pattern and the mechanisms that give rise to it are explored and discussed.
