Electron Trap Dynamics in Polymer Light?Emitting Diodes

Linearly polarized emission from GaInN lightemitting diodes with polarization-enhancing reflector.

A polarization-enhancing reflector design, which is matched to the emission characteristics of GaInN/GaN 460 nm light-emitting diodes grown on (0001) oriented sapphire substrates, is reported. Side-emitted light from these devices is known to be highly polarized with the electric field in the plane of the active region. Through selective rotation of polarization by the reflector, the in-plane p...

Heteroepitaxial Growth of GaN on Unconventional Templates and LayerTransfer Techniques for LargeArea, Flexible/Stretchable LightEmitting Diodes

temperature. This wide spectral range enables potential applications from the infrared to the deep ultraviolet regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. This makes GaN-based nitrides one of the most important materials for light sources such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs). [ 1–5 ] Sapphire has long been used as a substrate for GaN-based LEDs, and silicon (Si) is becoming its strong competitor d...

University of Groningen Hole-enhanced electron injection from ZnO in inverted polymer light-emitting diodes

Metal oxides as ZnO provide an interesting alternative for conventional low work function metals as electron injection layer in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). However, for most state-of-the-art OLED materials the high work function of ZnO leads to a large injection barrier for electrons. As a result the electron current in the OLED is largely limited by the contact, leading to a strong ...

Light Extraction Efficiency Enhancement of Colloidal Quantum Dot LightEmitting Diodes Using LargeScale Nanopillar Arrays

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) offer greatly advantageous features including high emission effi ciency, [ 1,2 ] narrow emission linewidth, [ 3,4 ] tunable emission wavelength, [ 5,6 ] and low-cost solution-processing, [ 7 ] making them one of the most promising materials for lighting-emitting diodes (LEDs). Recently, current-driven quantum dot lighting-emitting diodes (QLEDs) have been intensivel...
