We present a nanocomposite thin film based on ytterbium fluoride (YbF3) and N,N′-bis(1-naphthyl)-N,N′-diphenyl-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4′-diamine (NPB). The transmission electron microscopy study testified the presence of YbF3 nanoparticles with a size of 3−5nm, and these nanoparticles were observed to be uniformly dispersed in NPB. The conductance of YbF3 (50%)-doped NPB was measured to be 1.76 × 10−5 S, much higher than the value of 5.81 × 10−8 S for pure NPB film. However, unlike other p-doped systems, the absorption spectrum study shows that there is no obvious interaction between the host (NPB) and the dopant (YbF3). The hole mobility of YbF3 (50%)-doped NPB decreases to 7.31 × 10−5 cm2/(V s) at an electric field of 4 × 105 V/cm, while that of pure NPB film is 5.87 × 10−4 cm2/(V s). We believe that the improved film conductivity and decreased hole mobility can enhance the built-in field and thus favor the electron injection. Due to the improved balance of holes and electrons, a double-layer device with YbF3-...
