Manipulating the local light emission in organic light-emitting diodes by using patterned self-assembled monolayers
Patterned organic light-emitting diodes are fabricated by using microcontactDrinted self-assembled monolayers on a gold anode (see background figure). Molecules with dipole moments in opposite directions result in an increase or a decrease of the local work function (foreground picture), providing a direct handle on charge injection and enabling local modification of the light emission
