Unified model for the injection and transport of charge in organic diodes

This paper presents a unified model for charge injection and transport in organic or polymeric diodes. A special focus is placed on charge injection from the contacts, using existing models such as thermionic emission and tunnel injection. These are combined to produce a compact model that includes effects associated with oxidation/reduction reactions at the electrodes. Charges are formed at the electrodes by oxidation or reduction in a process …
