Poly(p-phenylene vinylene)/tris(8-hydroxy) quinoline aluminum heterostructure light emitting diode
نویسندگان
چکیده
Results are presented from polymer/molecular organic heterostructure light emitting diodes composed of a layer of the conjugated conducting polymer poly~p-phenylene vinylene! ~PPV!, and a layer of fluorescent molecular compound tris~8-hydroxy! quinoline aluminum ~Alq!. The external quantum efficiency of these heterostructure LEDs is ;0.1%, which is over one order of magnitude higher than that of simple PPV LEDs. The electroluminescence ~EL! spectra indicate that both materials in the device emit comparable amounts of light. The dependence of the EL spectra on the layer thicknesses and its independence on bias suggest that neutral excitons are formed in the Alq, far from the PPV/Alq interface, and subsequently diffuse into the PPV layer. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

Electric-field-induced optical second-harmonic generation in ž / poly phenylene vinylene light-emitting diodes
We demonstrate second-harmonic generation in polymeric light-emitting diodes built in a layer structure of indium tin Ž . oxide, poly phenylene vinylene and aluminum. The second-harmonic intensity generated in the active zone of the diode depends quadratically on the applied reverse bias. In order to account for the bias dependence of the measured intensity a simple model is given in that the s...
متن کاملElectroluminescence of Conjugated Aromatic Polymers in Organic Light Emitting Diodes
Organic electroluminescent materials have been the subject of intense research for use in light emitting diodes (LEDs). When compared with liquid crystal displays (LCDs), organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) require lower energy input, have a wider viewing angle with improved color contrast, and can be made much thinner. The electroluminescence (EL) of organic compounds was first demonstrated ...

We have studied the effects of using a composite fabricated from carbon nanotubes and a host polymer, poly~m-phenylene-vinylene-co-2,5-dioctyloxy-p-phenylene-vinylene! ~PmPV!, as an electron-transport layer in organic light-emitting diodes. Double layer devices using this composite as an electron-transport layer, triple layer devices with a composite electron-transport layer, and poly~9-vinylca...
متن کاملEffect of electrical annealing on the luminous efficiency of thermally annealed polymer light-emitting diodes
Both high brightness and high efficiency of polymer light-emitting diodes can be obtained by electrical annealing after an appropriate thermal treatment. Light-emitting diodes made of poly @2-methoxy-5-~28-ethyl-hexyloxy!-1,4-phenylene vinylene# ~MEH-PPV! with an Al electrode were used for this study. Thermal annealing after Al deposition dramatically enhanced the luminous efficiency of electro...
