Overcoming the disadvantages of organic light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) is important if full advantage is to be taken of their benefits. It is shown that a significant increase in durability and decrease of the turn‐on operating field can be achieved by attaching the electroactive polymer to the metal‐oxide electrode chemically. The Figure shows a single‐layer LED device with an electrode derivatized with a functionalized oligophenylene layer.
