一种高电流密度下效率不降低的绿光有机电致发光器件

为了提高有机电致发光器件(OLED)在高电流密度下的发光效率, 在以C545T掺杂Alq₃为发光层的有机小分子绿光器件中的发光层与电子传输层之间插入超薄LiF绝缘层.结果表明, 器件的外量子效率随着电流密度的增加始终没有降低, 直至600 mA/cm²时达到最大值 4.79%, 是相同电流密度下的参考器件的外量子效率的7倍.     

发光区插入超薄LiF层对有机电致发光器件性能的影响

着重对比了在以DCM掺杂Alq₃为发光层的红光器件的发光区插入超薄LiF层后器件性能的改善。插入超薄LiF层后,器件的最大工作电流密度为487 mA/cm²,相应的最大电致发光亮度为76 740 cd/m²,最大外量子效率为5.9%。器件内量子效率为40%,超过了基于有机荧光小分子发光材料的有机电致发光器件的内量子效率的理论极限值25%。对器件内单线态及三线态激子的形成过程进行了分析,并推测:超薄LiF层的插入提高了器件内单线态电荷转移态/三线态电荷转移态的形成比例,进而提高了器件内单线态激子在激子总数中的比例,最终提高了器件的内量子效率。同时,超薄LiF层的插入改变了发光层内局域的内部电场,使器件的外量子效率不仅没有随电流密度的增加而降低,反而非线性增加。     

一种提高有机电致发光器件发光效率的新方法:金属超薄层

在有机电致发光器件中插入金属超薄层常会带来一些意想不到的作用。在无机材料MoQ_3与有机材料TPD之间插入5 nm金属层Au,制备了结构为ITO/MoO_3(5 nm)/Au(5 nm)/TPD/AlQ/LiF/Al的OLED器件。相对于没有金属层Au的器件,发光效率得到了提高。通过分析认为Au在TPD和MoO_3之间形成一个小的空穴陷阱,在降低了器件中的电流密度的同时,由于5nm的Au对AlQ绿光的光透过率大于80%,发光亮度未受明显影响,是发光效率提高的原因。本文为提高OLED器件发光效率提供了新的思路和实验依据。     

纳米ZnO薄膜对有机电致发光器件性能的影响

由于有机电致发光器件(Organic light-emitting devices,OLEDs)的主动发光、高亮度等优点,在显示和照明领域有极大的应用前景。报道了纳米ZnO薄膜对这种发光器件性能的影响。在普通有机电致发光器件空穴传输层和发光层之间直接蒸镀一层纳米ZnO薄膜,当纳米ZnO薄膜的厚度为1nm时,器件的电流效率可达3.26cd/A,是没有纳米ZnO薄膜同类器件的1.24倍。适当厚度的纳米ZnO薄膜降低了发光层空穴的浓度,提高了电子和空穴的平衡,从而提高了器件的效率。

Heterojunction light emitting diodes fabricated with different n-layer oxide structures on p-GaN layers by magnetron sputtering

We grew heterojunction light emitting diode (LED) structures with various n-type semiconducting layers by magnetron sputtering on p-type GaN at high temperature. Because the undoped ZnO used as an active layer was grown under oxygen rich atmosphere, all LED devices showed the EL characteristics corresponding to orange-red wavelength due to high density of oxygen interstitial, which was coincident with the deep level photoluminescence emission of undoped ZnO. The use of the Ga doped layers as a top layer provided the sufficient electron carriers to active region and resulted in the intense EL emission. The LED sample with small quantity of Mg incorporated in MgZnO as an n-type top layer showed more intense emission than the LED with ZnO, in spite of the deteriorated electrical and structural properties of the MgZnO film. This might be due to the improvement of output extraction efficiency induced by rough surface.     

Effect of AlGaAs barrier layer on the characteristics of InGaP/InGaAs/Ge triple junction solar cells

As an effort to improve the conversion efficiency of InGaP/InGaAs/Ge triple junction solar cells, we investigated the effect of AlGaAs barrier layer on the cell performance under concentrated light condition. Three different solar cells having upper tunnel junctions (TJs) as n⁺⁺-GaAs/p⁺⁺-AlGaAs layers, n⁺⁺-GaAs/p⁺⁺-GaAs layers and n⁺⁺-GaAs/p⁺⁺-GaAs/p⁺⁺-AlGaAs layers were prepared. Under concentrated light condition, open-circuit voltage (V_OC), fill factor (FF) and conversion efficiencies were higher for the sample with an AlGaAs barrier layer than the samples without an AlGaAs barrier layer. For the sample with an AlGaAs barrier layer, external quantum efficiency was higher than other two samples. Most of all, the sample with a TJ as n⁺⁺-GaAs/p⁺⁺-GaAs layers showed a very poor electrical performance, which was associated with an imperfect crystalline quality of the InGaP top cell layers.     

改善多层电光聚合物调制器直流弛豫的一种简单方法的分析与模拟

电场分布和直流漂移对多层电光聚合物调制器的器件稳定性和极化效率有着重要的影响.本文由电磁场理论建立出等效电路模型,分析结果表明多层聚合物调制器的稳态直流场分布取决于材料的电特性;材料的弛豫时间常数τ(τ=∈/σ₂,其中σ是电导率,∈是介电常数)是最大程度上消除直流场弛豫的关键.当外加直流电压时,波导层的场分布由初态到稳态指数变化,这一过程由波导层和覆盖层的弛豫时间差决定.当两者相差为零时,弛豫消失.但在实际工艺中很难作到这一点,为此,本文经过分析、模拟,提出一种简单的“自抑制”机制,能够很好地改善多层电光聚合物调制器设计中的直流漂移问题.     

Minimizing optical losses in bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells

The efficiency that a solar cell can reach is ultimately limited by the number of photons absorbed in its active layer. Bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells are fabricated from a stack of thin film layers, each of which is thinner than a single wavelength from an incident photon within its absorption band. One consequence of this thin film layer stack is a strong optical interference between the various layers that can change the quantity of light dissipated in the active layer by 50%. Here we use optical modeling to quantitatively calculate the dissipation in each of the various layers as functions of wavelength and layer thickness. Using this information the loss free short circuit current density can be calculated (J_scmax). Optimization of J_scmax leads to direct improvements in the efficiency of the solar cell through improved light dissipation in the active layer. The optical properties for a P3HT:PCBM active layer and a model Lorentzian low band gap spectrum are optimized and ideal fabrication conditions are reported for these materials.

All organic DFB laser enhanced by intermediate high refractive index polymer layer

Performances of a distributed feedback (DFB) organic dye laser were enhanced by introducing an intermediate high refractive index layer of poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVCz) laminated between a glass substrate and a laser dye doped active polymer layer. The active layer is consisted of rhodamine 6G and cellulose acetate (CA). Introduction of an intermediate layer allows a single mode lasing. Slope efficiencies of 2.2 and 4.7% and thresholds of 0.3 and 0.14 mJ/cm²/pulse were measured for the waveguides with 1.7 and 3.4 μm active layers, respectively. Furthermore, permanent relief grating on an intermediate layer gave rise to the reduction of the threshold. With increasing in amplitude of the relief grating from 20 to 45 nm, lasing threshold was reduced from 0.18 to 0.04 mJ/cm²/pulse for the waveguide with 1.7 μm active layer. The slope efficiency increased from 3.5 to 4.2%.     

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.
