  • Utilizing a precursor method for ZnO electron transport layer fabrication.
  • Time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy to analyze luminescence quenching.

    • Main Results:

    • Optimizing TmPyPB layer thickness balanced charge carriers in the quantum dot emission layer.
    • Achieved a 59.7% increase in current efficiency (8.2 to 13.1 cd A⁻¹) and a 46.2% improvement in maximum luminance (31916 to 46674 cd m⁻²).
    • Minimized luminescence quenching at the ZnO/QD interface, attributed to the precursor method for ZnO fabrication.

    Conclusions:

    • The TmPyPB layer effectively functions as an electron blocking layer, enhancing charge carrier balance.
    • The precursor method for ZnO fabrication reduces luminescence quenching, improving overall device performance.
    • This strategy offers a viable direction for optimizing all-solution processed inverted QLEDs.
