The p-doping effect of the fluorinated fullerene C60F36 doped into organic thin films of N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(4-methoxyphenyl)-benzidine (MeO-TPD) of different purification grades is systematically investigated by photoemission spectroscopy. By reducing the molar doping ratio to MR = 2.9 x 10(-4), the Fermi-level shift upon doping is resolved in particular at very low doping concentrations. In comparison to four times sublimated MeO-TPD, 5 times more C60F36 molecules have to be doped into unpurified MeO-TPD films to shift the Fermi-level just above its intrinsic position. This finding is discussed in terms of a statistical model, showing that narrow deep hole-trap states are additionally present in the unpurified host material which are hindering an efficient generation of free charge carriers at molar doping ratios below MR = 0.002.
