Perimeter leakage current in polymer light emitting diodes

Observation of leakage current paths through the device perimeter in standard poly(phenylene vinylene)-based light-emitting devices is reported. Perimeter leakage currents govern the diode performance in reverse and low positive bias and exhibit an ohmic character. Current density correlates with the perimeter-to-area ratio thus indicating that leakage currents are mainly confined on polymer regions in the vicinity of metallic contact limits (device perimeter).

3,4,9,10-Perylenetetracarboxylicdiimide as an interlayer for ultraviolet organic light emitting diodes

Ultraviolet organic light emitting diodes with 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylicdiimide (PTCDI) interlayer have been achieved. The emission spectrum and intensity were strongly dependent on the thickness of PTCDI interlayer, in spite of the fact that PTCDI has neither much lower HOMO nor much higher LUMO level, which is considered necessary for efficient charge blocking layers. The influence of PTCDI layer was investigated in three different device configurations and obtained results are discussed. For optimal device configuration, OLED with emission centered at 370 nm and turn-on voltage of 4.5 V is obtained.     

Efficient silicon light emitting diodes made by dislocation engineering

Efficient silicon-based light emitting diodes have been fabricated using the dislocation engineering method. Crucially this technique uses entirely conventional ULSI processes. The devices were fabricated by conventional low-energy boron implantation into silicon substrates followed by high-temperature annealing, and strong silicon band edge luminescence was observed. Dislocation engineering is also shown to reduce the thermal quenching for other material systems. Dislocation engineered β-FeSi₂ and Er light emitting devices were fabricated and room temperature electroluminescence at 1.5 μm was observed in both cases.

Bright all-solution-processed CsPbBr3 perovskite light emitting diodes optimized by quaternary ammonium salt

Perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) prepared by the all-solution-process are gradually coming into view due to their low cost and flexible production process. However, the performance of CsPbBr₃ device is limited by the high non-radiative recombination losses due to incomplete surface coverage and grain defects. Here a quaternary ammonium salt, tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate (TBA-PF₆) was simultaneously introduced into perovskite emission layers (CsPbBr₃) and electron transport layer (TPBi (1,3,5-Tris(1-phenyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl) benzene) dissolved in ethyl acetate). As a result, the morphology and luminescence of CsPbBr₃ films were improved, and the energy level of TPBi was more conducive to charge transport. Consequently, the maximum luminance and current efficiency of the modified green-emitting PeLEDs are improved. Furthermore, the optimized device had an operating life of more than 20 min at an initial luminance of 1230 cd/m². This work provides a simple and easy method to be scaled up for the development of low-cost all-solution-processed PeLEDs.     

Applications of light emitting diodes as sensors of their own emitted light

In literature, it is known that a Light Emitting Diode (LED) could be used as a light sensor. It is also known that its emitted light spectrum and sensitivity spectrum can be partially overlapped. This work presents how commercial LEDs can be used as light emitters and simultaneously as sensors of the reflected portion of the light emitted by themselves. The realized devices present a unique characteristic: the transmitter and the receiver coincide spatially as they are the same device. This ensures the perfect overlapping between transmission and reception radiation lobes that could provide many benefits in several applications like as distance measurements or image sensors. Some simple electronic configurations that use LEDs as detectors of their own emitted light are presented. It has been also demonstrated how these LEDs_Tx-Rx can work as image sensors by acquiring an image of a simple test object, and how they can realize distance sensors with respect to other known techniques. Further advantages can be obtained by realizing LED_Tx-Rx array in single integrated devices. With the realization of such devices, it will be also possible to experiment new constructive solutions for commonly used applications, without the need of using separate emitter and receiver.     

The pH effect on black spots in surface finish: Electroless nickel immersion gold

In order to understand the black spot generation after electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG) plating, we investigated the pH effect with a combined approach of experiments and computer aided engineering (CAE). As the pH is increased in IG plating solution, the deprotonation of citric acid as chelating agent is enhanced to stabilize the solution by producing Ni-citrate complex ion. For the substitution reaction between nickel and gold, excess citrate ions (deprotonated citric acids) are adsorbed along nodal boundaries of Ni-P layer to decrease the surface reactivity. Since the low reactivity decreases the overall growth rate, the resulting homogeneous Au layer growth avoids the unfavorable galvanic cell corrosion to control black spot. Based on molecular orbital method and kinetic Monte Carlo calculation, our computational approach well explained the capability of citric acid as chelating agent and the Au growth rate along the nodal boundaries of Ni-P layer depending on the surface reactivity.     

Numerical and experimental studies of mixed-host organic light emitting diodes

Electrical characteristic and luminance of three mixed-host organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs): namely the uniformly mixed, step-wise graded and mixed, and continuously graded and mixed, were compared with the conventional hetero-junction OLED in both numerical and experimental studies. These mixed-host OLEDs were fabricated by a mixed-source thermal evaporation process, and half-cell devices were also fabricated to provide some input parameters for OLED simulations. The current efficiencies were largely influenced by their device structures and strongly agreed with the computed current balance factors. The improved mixed-host OLED performances can be discussed with aid from simulations, which include spatial distributions of electron and hole, carrier mobility, electric field profiles, the total recombination rates in the light emitting layer.     

Degradation behaviors of high power GaN-based blue light emitting diodes

The degradation mechanism of high power InGaN/GaN blue light emitting diodes(LEDs)is investigated in this paper.The LED samples were stressed at room temperature under 350-mA injection current for about 400 h.The light output power of the LEDs decreased by 35%during the first 100 h and then remained almost unchanged,and the reverse current at 5 V increased from 10 9A to 10 7A during the aging process.The power law,whose meaning was re-illustrated by the improved rate equation,was used to analyze the light output power-injection current(L–I)curves.The analysis results indicate that nonradiative recombination,Auger recombination,and the third-order term of carriers overflow increase during the aging process,all of which may be important reasons for the degradation of LEDs.Besides,simulating L–I curves with the improved rate equation reveal that higher-than-third-order terms of carriers overflow may not be the main degradation mechanism,because they change slightly when the LED is stressed.

Growth and properties of wide spectral white light emitting diodes

Wide spectral white light emitting diodes have been designed and grown on a sapphire substrate by using a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition system. Three quantum wells with blue-light-emitting, green-light-emitting and red-light-emitting structures were grown according to the design. The surface morphology of the film was observed by using atomic force microscopy. The films were characterized by their photoluminescence measurements. X-ray diffraction θ/2θ scan spectroscopy was carried out on the multi-quantum wells. The secondary fringes of the symmetric ω/2θ X-ray diffraction scan peaks indicate that the thicknesses and the alloy compositions of the individual quantum wells are repeatable throughout the active region. The room temperature photoluminescence spectra of the structures indicate that the white light emission of the multi-quantum wells is obtained. The light spectrum covers 400-700 nm, which is almost the whole visible light spectrum.

Photoluminescence characterization of a novel red-emitting phosphor In2(MoO4)3:Eu3+ for white light emitting diodes

The red-emitting phosphor In₂(MoO₄)₃:Eu³⁺ with cubic crystal structure was synthesized by a conventional solid-state reaction technique and its photoluminescence properties were investigated. The prepared phosphor can be efficiently excited by ultraviolet (395 nm) and blue (466 nm) light. The emission spectra of the phosphor manifest intensive red-emitting lines at 612 nm due to the electric dipole ⁵D₀→⁷F₂ transitions of Eu³⁺. The chromaticity coordinates of x=0.63, y=0.35 (λ_ex=395 nm) and x=0.60, y=0.38 (λ_ex=466 nm) are close to the standard of National Television Standard Committee values (NTSC) values. The concentration quenching of In₂(MoO₄)₃:Eu³⁺ is 40 mol% and the concentration self-quenching mechanism under 466 nm excitation was the dd intereaction. As a result of the strong emission intensity and good excitation, the phosphor In₂(MoO₄)₃:Eu³⁺ is regarded as a promising red-emitting conversion material for white LEDs.
