Air stable hybrid organic-inorganic light emitting diodes using ZnO as the cathode
2007
An air stable hybrid organic-inorganic light emitting device is presented. This architecture makes use of metal oxides as charge injecting materials into the light emitting polymer, avoiding the use of air sensitive cathodes commonly employed in organic light emitting diode manufacturing. We report the application of zinc oxide as a cathode in an organic light emitting device. This electroluminescent device shows high brightness levels reaching 6500 cd/m2 at voltages as low as 8 V. Compared to a conventional device using low workfunction metal cathodes, our device shows a lower turn-on voltage and it can operate in air.
Impedance of space-charge-limited currents in organic light-emitting diodes with double injection and strong recombination
2006
The impedance model for a one-carrier space-charge-limited (SCL) current has been applied to explain some experimental features of double carrier organic light-emitting diodes. We report the analytical model of impedance of bipolar drift transport in SCL regime in the limit of infinite recombination. In this limit the ac impedance function is identical to that of a single carrier device, with a transit time modified by the sum of mobilities for electrons and holes, μn+μp. The static capacitance C(ω→0) is a factor of ¾ lower than the geometric capacitance, as observed for single carrier devices, but it is shifted to higher frequencies. It follows that impedance measurements in the dual-carri…
A simple method for the photometric characterization of organic light-emitting diodes
2022
A simple method for the photometric characterization of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is reported. It is based on the indirect measurement of the total emitted optical power by using a calibrated photodiode and the optical emission spectrum and space emission diagram of the OLED. From this and by measuring the current–voltage characteristic of the OLED all the relevant radiometric and photometric quantities can be extracted, including the external quantum efficiency. The usual method to collect all photons emitted by a LED source in the half space uses an integrating sphere with the LED source placed at the entrance hole and a photodiode (PD) placed at an exit hole at some point on …
An Ester-Substituted Iridium Complex for Efficient Vacuum-Processed Organic Light-Emitting Diodes
2009
An orange-red-emitting iridium complex (N958) was prepared, and its photophysical and device-based characteristics were investigated. Despite N958 displaying quite poor photophysical properties in solution (acetonitrile), organic light-emitting diode (OLED) devices based on the complex exhibit an efficiency close to 10%.
Millisecond radiative recombination in poly(phenylene vinylene)-based light-emitting diodes from transient electroluminescence
2007
The current and electroluminescence transient responses of standard poly phenylene vinylene -based light-emitting devices have been investigated. The electroluminescence time response is longer milliseconds scale than the current switch-off time by more than one order of magnitude, in the case of small area devices 0.1 cm2 . For large area devices 6 cm2 the electroluminescence decay time decreases from 1.45 ms to 100 s with increasing bias voltage. The fast current decay limits the electroluminescence decay at higher voltages. Several approaches are discussed to interpret the observed slow decrease of electroluminescence after turning off the bias. One relies upon the Langevin-type bimolecu…

DC lifetime of encapsulated organic light emitting diodes
2016
Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) are ideal sources for chemical and biological optical sensors, due to their simplicity, low cost (disposable applications) and possibility to be integrated on chip and fabricated in the form of large 2D arrays (microarray fluorescence) even on flexible plastic substrates. OLEDs with lifetimes of a few hundreds of hours at initial luminance values in the range (500÷1000) cd/m 2 are suitable for the above applications, but these lifetimes can be achieved only by a proper encapsulation. Fast, simple and inexpensive encapsulation methods are highly desirable to keep the low cost profile and for this reasonwe report two different encapsulation structures and…
A comparative study of encapsulation structures for OLEDs
2007
Encapsulation is the final and most important step in the fabrication of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). An OLED operated in air can have a lifetime, defined as the time it takes for the luminance to decrease to half of its initial value, up to a few hours or less [1] due to degradation mechanisms induced by water vapour and oxygen. For emerging niche applications, such as OLED fluorescence biosensors [2] for routine laboratory analysis, the OLED is operated for a short period of time and then it must be disposed of. In this case OLEDs lifetimes of the order of a few hundreds of hours at initial luminance values in the range (500 1000) cd/m2 can be considered acceptable. To keep th…
