The OLED devices were tested in terms of electrical and optical characteristics in order to investigate the effect of sorbitol doping and thermal annealing on PEDOT:PSS thin film on FTO. The device fabricated from sorbitol-PEDOT:PSS with thermal annealing showed the maximum luminance of 130 (cd m(-2)). The devices with sorbitol doping showed a lowering of the operating voltage from 6.5 down to 3 V. A constant luminous efficiency higher than 1.8 cd A(-1) was obtained in the range of current of 4-7 (mA/cm(2)) with doped sorbitol.
