Contact Injection into Polymer Light-Emitting Diodes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The variation of current I with voltage V for poly(phenylene vinylene) and other polymer light-emitting diodes has been attributed to carriers tunneling into broad conduction and valence bands. In actuality the electrons and holes tunnel into polaron levels and transport is by hopping among these levels. We show that for small injection the I-V characteristic is determined mainly by the image force, for large injection by space charge effects, but in both cases the strong variation of mobility with field due to disorder plays an important role.

Silole groups are known to present a high electron affinity. Initially, copolymerization of siloles with fluorene was aimed at improving electron injection into the polymer layer and so improving the electroluminescent properties of Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLED’s) made from fluorene. But it also provides the ability to turn the light emission colour to the green part of the spectrum and ...

Self-consistent solution of charge injection and charge transport in low mobility light emitting diodes ~LEDs! is reported. We show that an explicit description of the contact region under the same premise as the transport equations is needed to accurately evaluate the current–voltage characteristics of polymer or small-molecule based LEDs. The results are compared to widely used models, which ...
متن کاملUniversity 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 ...
متن کاملUltra-bright and highly efficient inorganic based perovskite light-emitting diodes
Inorganic perovskites such as CsPbX3 (X=Cl, Br, I) have attracted attention due to their excellent thermal stability and high photoluminescence quantum efficiency. However, the electroluminescence quantum efficiency of their light-emitting diodes was <1%. We posited that this low efficiency was a result of high leakage current caused by poor perovskite morphology, high non-radiative recombinati...
