金属氟化物对聚合物发光二极管发光性能的提高

在以聚合物发光材料MEH-PPV为发光层的聚合物发光二极管(PLEDs)的金属阴极与聚合物发光层之间插入一层绝缘的金属氟化物,发光器件的发光性能有所提高,而且绝缘层的厚度会影响器件性能提高的最终效果。特别是具有LiF／Al的双层电极的发光器件,其发光特性与工作性能优良,但稳定性较差的Ba(Ca)／Al电极结构器件的发光特性具有可比性。初步分析表明绝缘层的插入造成了发光聚合物层与金属电极界面的能带发生弯曲,降低了发光器件中少数载流子电子的注入势垒,提高了发光器件中少数载流子电子的注入效率。从而最终导致了发光器件的开启电压、发光强度、外量子效率及电流效率等发光性能指标的显著提高。

TCTA在外电场下的双分子发光现象

制备了三苯胺化合物4,4′,4″-三(咔唑-9-基)三苯胺(TCTA)的单层器件ITO/MoO_3/TCTA/LiF/Al和TCTA/TPBi双层异质结器件ITO/NPB/TCTA/TPBi/Bphen/LiF/Al,研究了TCTA的双分子发光现象。通过测试器件的光电性能和薄膜的稳态光谱,得出以下结论:(1)单层器件的电致发光光谱有425 nm和600 nm两个发光峰。与TCTA薄膜的光致发光光谱对比,可知425 nm附近的蓝色发光峰来源于TCTA单体发光,而600 nm附近的橙色发光应为TCTA二聚体electromer的发光。蓝色和橙色发光混合,使单层器件发光颜色表现为白色,对应色坐标为(0.381,0.343)。(2)TCTA/TPBi双层异质结器件的电致发光光谱为440 nm的单峰,器件的最大发光亮度为930 cd/m~2,发光性能明显优于单层器件。结合薄膜TCTA、TPBi和TCTA/TPBi的光致发光光谱和紫外-可见光吸收光谱,可知双层器件的发光来自TCTA~+TPBi~-电致激基复合物。双层器件表现出良好的色稳定性,电压在6～11 V范围,CIE色坐标为(0.18±0.01,0.14±0.01)。     

基于改性空穴注入层与复合发光层的高效钙钛矿发光二极管

Anionic nonconjugated polyelectrolyte as an anode interfacial layer for polymer solar cells

Since the most high-performing donor polymers in polymer solar cells (PSCs) possessed the deep highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level, interfacial engineering on anode contact is becoming increasingly important. Herein, we demonstrated efficient PSCs using an anionic poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) as an anode interfacial layer (AIL). With the formation of the dipole layer, the effective work function (WF) of indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode is significantly increased from 4.8 to 5.3 eV, providing favorable energetic alignment to the quasi-Fermi level of various donor polymers. Moreover, by incorporating cationic polyelectrolytes as a cathode interfacial layer, a pair of electric dipole layers induces a strong built-in electric field across the photoactive layer to drive efficient sweep-out of photogenerated charges. Consequently, the device with PSS AIL exhibited high power conversion efficiencies of 9.2 and 14.8% in PTB7-Th:PC₇₁BM- and PM6:Y6-based PSCs, respectively, both of which are higher than those of the devices with PEDOT:PSS.     

Fabrication and electrical characterization of a MOS memory device containing self-assembled metallic nanoparticles

Floating gate devices with nanoparticles embedded in dielectrics have recently attracted much attention due to the fact that these devices operate as non-volatile memories with high speed, high density and low power consumption. In this paper, memory devices containing gold (Au) nanoparticles have been fabricated using e-gun evaporation. The Au nanoparticles are deposited on a very thin SiO₂ layer and are then fully covered by a HfO₂ layer. The HfO₂ is a high-k dielectric and gives good scalability to the fabricated devices. We studied the effect of the deposition parameters to the size and the shape of the Au nanoparticles using capacitance–voltage and conductance–voltage measurements, we demonstrated that the fabricated device can indeed operate as a low-voltage memory device.

Fabrication and characteristics of thin-film optical switches using fluorinated silicon oxide deposited by a liquid-phase technique

Optical switching devices have been studied using thin-film optical waveguides with fluorinated silicon oxide (SiOF) films deposited by a liquid-phase deposition (LPD) technique. This report focuses on the structure of the thermo-optical (TO) switch and its optimization. TO devices with double-and triple-layer structures were fabricated using a material with an organic spin-on-glass (SOG) cladding layer and a liquid-phase deposited (LPD) SiOF core layer. The maximum extinction ratio of 15.97 dB was obtained for the double-layer structure TO devices at the half-wavelength power of 2.78 W, and at the heater area of 0.02 mm². The response time decreased with decrease in the heater area for both double-and triple-layer structures. The response time as short as 6.3 ms was obtained at the heater area of 0.02 mm² for the double-layer structure. For the triple-layer structure, an even shorter response time of 2ms was achieved at the heater area of 0.08 mm², and this was over one order of magnitude smaller than that for the double-layer structure at the same heater area (280 ms).     

Performance improvement of MEH-PPV:PCBM solar cells using bathocuproine and bathophenanthroline as the buffer layers

In this work, bathocuproine (BCP) and bathophenanthroline (Bphen), commonly used in small-molecule organic solar cells (OSCs), are adopted as the buffer layers to improve the performance of the polymer solar cells (PSCs) based on poly(2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene) (MEH-PPV): [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) bulk heterojunction. By inserting BCP or Bphen between the active layer and the top cathode, all the performance parameters are dramatically improved. The power conversion efficiency is increased by about 70% and 120% with 5-nm BCP and 12-nm Bphen layers, respectively, when compared with that of the devices without any buffer layer. The performance enhancement is attributed to BCP or Bphen (i) increasing the optical field, and hence the absorption in the active layer, (ii) effectively blocking the excitons generated in MEH-PPV from quenching at organic/aluminum (Al) interface due to the large band-gap of BCP or Bphen, which results in a significant reduction in series resistance (Rs), and (iii) preventing damage to the active layer during the metal deposition. Compared with the traditional device using LiF as the buffer layer, the BCP-based devices show a comparable efficiency, while the Bphen-based devices show a much larger efficiency. This is due to the higher electron mobility in Bphen than that in BCP, which facilitates the electron transport and extraction through the buffer layer to the cathode.     

Bright flexible organic light-emitting devices on copy paper substrates

We have developed flexible top emission organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) using copy paper substrates. Poly-2-chloro-p-xylylene and SiO₂ buffer layers were coated on the copy paper for protecting the water absorption and improving the barrier and morphological characteristics. Sputtered Ni and thermally evaporated Ca/Ag films were used as anode and semitransparent cathode, respectively. The electrical conduction, luminance, and efficiency characteristics of the copy paper-based flexible OLEDs were investigated. The SiO₂ buffer layer was critically important in obtaining the high performance devices. The device exhibited a high luminance of 2200 cd/m² at a driving voltage of 13 V.     

Enhanced optical transmission through double-layer gold slit arrays

We investigate the relationship between the transmission and the layer distance of double-layer gold slit arrays by using the finite-difference time-domain method.The results show that the transmission properties can be influenced strongly by layer distance.We attribute the two types of resonant modes to surface plasmon resonance and the localised waveguide resonance.We find that the localised waveguide transmission peak redshifts and becomes broader with increasing layer distance D.We also describe and explain the splitting,shift,and degeneration of the surface plasmon resonant transmission peak theoretically.In addition,to clarify the physical mechanism of the transmission behaviours,we analyse the distributions of electric field and total energy for the three transmission peaks with distance D=45 nm for the double-layer system.Light transporting behaviours are mostly concentrated in the region of the slits as well as the interspaces of the two layers,and for different resonant wavelengths the electric field and energy distributions are different.It is expected that the results obtained here will be helpful for designing subwavelength metallic grating devices.     

Improved efficiencies of hybrid organic light‐emitting diodes using efficient electron injection layer

Hybrid organic‐inorganic light‐emitting diodes were developed with pristine ZnO (2.0 wt%) and Cu‐doped ZnO (2.0 wt%) as electron injection layer and iridium(III)‐bis‐2‐(4‐fluorophenyl)‐1‐(naphthalen‐1‐yl)‐1H‐phenanthro[9,10‐d]imidazole (acetylacetonate) [Ir(fpnpi)₂ (acac)] as green emissive layer (521 nm). The pristine ZnO and Cu‐doped ZnO are deposited at indium tin oxide cathode and emissive layer interface. The electroluminescent performances increased by electron injection layer–Cu‐doped ZnO compared with ZnO‐based device because Cu‐doped ZnO injects electron efficiently result in balanced h⁺ ? e^? recombination in emissive layer than ZnO‐based device. The Cu‐doped ZnO (2.0 %) device shows luminance (L) of 10 982 cd/m² at 23.0 V (ZnO, 1450 cd/m² at 23.0 V).
