Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been currently broadly studied, and it has been shown that efficient luminescence can be achieved by heterostructures utilizing suitable organic materials as the charge transport and blocking layers. Recently, we have realized the first example of a stable and reproducible organic p-i-n homojunction using a phthalocyanine as the matrix. Here, the main challenge was the simultaneous n- and p-type doping of the same material. Using strong organic acceptors like perfluorinated tetracyanoquinodimethane(TCNQ) and metal-organic donors synthesized and handled in strict absence of oxygen, we show that several organic matrices can form p-i-n homojunctions with high built-in potentials: Using a porphyrine as the matrix, a built-in potential of around 1.2 V is achieved. The homojunctions show well-behaved diode characteristics with rectification ratios up to 105. A homojunction composed of a phosphorescent metal-complex emits fairly intense red light under forward bias. We discuss the properties of these archetypal homojunction OLEDs with respect to the luminescence efficiency and current-voltage characteristics and compare the results with optimized heterostructure OLEDs.
