红光量子点掺杂PVK体系的发光特性研究

无热处理制备了红光CdSe/ZnS量子点掺杂PVK的ITO/PVK:QDs/Alq3/Al结构电致发光器件.测试器件的发光光谱和电学特性等,研究了掺杂浓度(质量分数)对体系发光特性的影响,将非掺杂与掺杂体系做了比较,提出了优化掺杂体系的一些可行方案.量子点掺杂浓度较低时,主要为Alq3的发光;掺杂浓度为20%时,Alq3的发光得到抑制,红光发射最佳;继续增大掺杂浓度,QDs发光峰发生微弱红移,器件性能变差.与非掺杂体系相比,掺杂浓度合适的PVK:QDs体系大大提高了器件的稳定性.     

ZnS薄膜参数对有机/无机复合发光器件特性的影响

半导体量子点(QDs)具有发光效率高和发光波长可调等特点。采用胶体CdSe QDs作电致发光器件的有源材料,TPD(N,N′-biphenyl-N,N′-bis-(3-methylphenyl)-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4′-diamine)作空穴传输层,ZnS作电子传输层,研究了有机/无机复合发光器件ITO/TPD/CdSe QDs/ZnS/Ag的电致发光特性。TPD和CdSe QDs薄膜采用旋涂方法、ZnS薄膜采用磁控溅射方法沉积,器件表面平整。CdSe QDs的光致发光和电致发光谱峰位波长均位于～580 nm,属于量子点的带边激子发光。我们与以前的ITO/ZnS/CdSe QDs/ZnS/Ag发光器件结构进行了对比,发现新的器件结构的电致发光谱没有观察到QDs表面态的发光,而且新器件的发光强度是ITO/ZnS/CdSe QDs/ZnS/Ag结构的～10倍。发光效率的提高归因于碰撞激发与载流子注入两种发光机制并存的结果：一方面电子经过ZnS 层加速后,碰撞激发CdSe QDs发光;另一方面,空穴从TPD层注入CdSe QDs 与QDs中激发的电子复合发光。我们进一步研究了ZnS电子加速层厚度对发光特性的影响,选择ZnS薄膜的厚度分别是80,120 和160 nm,发现随着ZnS层厚度增大,器件启亮电压升高,EL强度增大,但是击穿电压降低。EL峰位随着ZnS厚度的减小发生明显蓝移,对上述实验现象进行了机理解释。     

Excitation mechanism in polymer layers doped with tetra-methylester of perylene tetracarboxylicacid: influences of doping concentration and external bias

A spin-coated layer of poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) doped with tetra-methyl ester of perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylicacid (TMEP) is prepared, and the effects of dopant concentration and bias voltages on excitation mechanisms are studied through analyzing its emission characteristics. The investigation indicates that in photoluminescence (PL) cases energy and charge transfers between PVK and TMEP are cooperated for low dopant concentration, whereas the electroluminescence (EL) spectra imply that energy transfer is more important than charge trapping and transfer in these devices. For high dopant concentration, charge transfer is dominated in PL spectra but has a minor effect on EL spectra, and the external bias has less influence on the EL characteristics. A kinetic analysis is given to rationalize the experiment results.     

电场诱导聚合物分子取向对单线态和三线态激子形成截面的影响

通过对聚乙烯咔唑(PVK) 掺杂三(2-苯基吡啶)铱(Ir(ppy)₃)和4-二氰亚甲基-2-叔丁基-6-(1,1,7,7-四甲基久咯呢定基-9-烯基)-4H-吡喃(DCJTB)，PVK 掺杂DCJTB和PVK掺杂Ir(ppy)₃聚合物在成膜时高压电场作用下分子取向变化对单线态和三线态激子形成截面的研究，发现，随着成膜时电场的增强，单线态激子的形成截面在增加，而三线态激子的形成截面却减小. 关键词： 分子取向 激子形成截面 三线态 单线态     

Charge carriers bulk recombination instead of electroplex emission after their tunneling through hole-blocking layer in OLEDs

Charge carriers bulk recombination instead of forming electroplex after their tunneling through a hole-blocking layer, i.e. 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP), in organic electroluminescence (EL) device ITO/poly-(N-vinyl-carbazole)(PVK)/BCP/tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq₃)/Al is reported. By changing the thickness of BCP layer, one can find that high electric fields enhance the tunneling process of holes accumulated at the PVK/BCP interface into BCP layer instead of forming “electroplex emission” as reported earlier in literatures. Our experimental data show that charge carriers bulk recombination takes place in both PVK layer and BCP layer, and even in Alq₃ layer when BCP layer is thin enough. Further, it is suggested that PVK is the origin of the emission shoulder at 595 nm in the EL spectra of trilayer device ITO/PVK/BCP/Alq₃/Al.     

一种新型稀土配合物Eu(TTA)(2NH_2-Phen)_3的发光特性研究

合成了一种新型的稀土配合物Eu(TTA)(2NH_2-Phen)_3,将其作为掺杂物与基质聚乙烯基咔唑(PVK)按照不同质量比混合共溶,旋涂成膜.测量了混合薄膜的光致发光光谱,确认了所合成的Eu(TTA)(2NH_2H-Phen)_3具有发射荧光的能力,进而将其应用于电致发光器件中.还制备了以PVK:Eu(TTA)(2NH_2-Phen)_3为发光层,器件结构为ITO/PVK:Eu(TTA)(2NH_2-Phen)3/2,9-dimethy1-4,-diphenyl-1,10-plaenan thmline(BCP)/8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum(Alq_3)/Al的多层器件,得到了 Eu~(3+)的红色电敛发光.研究不同掺杂浓度时器件发光光谱的变化及PVK的发射光谱与Eu(TTA)(2NH_2-Phen)_3的吸收光谱的交叠情况,证明了混合薄膜中Eu~(3+)电致发光机理主要足载流子的直接俘获.     

Ir(PPY)3掺杂PVK的电致发光机理

近几年来发展起来的电致磷光(electrophosphorescence)是有机发光二极管(OLED)研究的新生长点。对电致磷光发光机理的研究随即得到了人们普遍的关注。比较了不同正向偏压条件下Ir(PPY)₃掺杂聚乙烯基咔唑(PVK)的光致发光(PL)和电致发光(EL)光谱。研究结果显示在电场和注入电流的共同作用下,PL光谱中基质PVK发光的相对强度并没有发生显著的变化。电场或注入载流子不会影响PVK向Ir(PPY)₃的能量传递。磷光掺杂聚合物EL主要是由于载流子在掺杂磷光分子上的直接复合,而不是由基质向磷光掺杂分子的能量传递。     

The effect of driving voltage on the electroluminescent property of a blend of poly(9-vinylcarbazole) and 2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole

The impact of driving voltage on the electroluminescence (EL) from organic light emitting diode with ITO/PVK:PBD:TBAPF₆(10:10:1)/Al structure was analyzed by the method of Gaussian fitting. Indium tin oxide (ITO) was used as anode, poly(9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) as polymeric host, 2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PBD) as electron-transporting molecule, tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate (TBAPF₆) as organic salt and aluminium (Al) as cathode. A broad EL has been observed and it could be attributed to the overlap of emission from four different excited state complexes, including PVK:PBD exciplex, PVK:PBD electroplex, PBD electromer and PVK electromer. The EL spectra shifted to longer wavelength with the increase of driving voltage. The ratio of PVK electromer to PVK:PBD exciplex emission intensity first declined slightly and then increased remarkably, while the relative intensity of combination of PVK:PBD electroplex and PBD electromer emission remained unchanged when the voltage was increased.     

两种铽配合物与PVK混合体系的发光机理研究

研究了稀土配合物Tb(p-MBA)₃phen(样品Ⅰ)和Tb(p-ClBA)₃phen(样品Ⅱ)与导电聚合物材料PVK掺杂体系的光致发光和电致发光特性。发现在样品Ⅰ与PVK混合薄膜的光致发光中,除了三价铽离子的发光外,还能看到明显的PVK的发光;而在电致发光中,PVK的发光完全被抑制,只能看到Tb3+的绿光发射。对样品Ⅱ与PVK的混合发光层,无论其光致发光谱还是电致发光谱,都没有看到410 nm处PVK的发射。进一步测量两种材料的激发光谱,初步探讨了器件的发光机理。样品Ⅰ的发光可能来源于两个方面,一是PVK到稀土配合物的不完全的能量传递,二是由于载流子俘获机理;样品Ⅱ的发光则是由于PVK到稀土配合物的完全的能量传递。     

Ir(Fppy)_3掺杂PVK体系发光特性的研究

对蓝色磷光材料Ir(Fppy)3不同浓度掺杂PVK薄膜的光致发光(PL)和电致发光(EL)特性进行了研究。并制备了结构为ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PVK:Ir(Fppy)3/BCP/Alq3/LiF/Al的蓝色磷光有机电致发光器件。实验结果发现,磷光材料掺杂浓度不同,器件发光特性不同。当Ir(Fppy)3掺杂浓度比较低时,EL光谱中可以观察到PVK较弱的发光;当Ir(Fppy)3掺杂浓度较高时,会发生浓度猝灭;当Ir(Fppy)3掺杂浓度比较适中时,EL光谱中观察不到PVK的发光,只有Ir(Fppy)3的发光。通过I-V-L特性的比较,当掺杂浓度为4%时,器件的光电特性最好。

Influence of the electric characteristics of II–VI semiconductor material on the electroluminescence of lanthanide complex

The organic-inorganic combined structural device (ITO/PVK:Eu/ZnS/Al) is fabricated based on layered optimization scheme. II–VI semiconductor material ZnS is acted as an electron function (transporting and acceleration) layer. The hot electrons which have been accelerated in the ZnS layer directly impact excitation europium ions through resonant energy transfer and then recombine with injected holes to form excitons in PVK or EuTTA₂(N-HPA)Phen. Europium (Eu) ions may also be excited by intramolecular energy transfer from ligands. There are two kinds of excitation mechanisms: impacted excitation and injected recombination for the combined structural device. The electroluminescence (EL) intensity of the combined structural device is strongly improved and reaches up to 381 cd/m² at 20 V compared with the pure organic structural device. It may be an effective method to improve the EL intensity of the lanthanide complex by using electric characteristics of inorganic semiconductor materials.     

Luminescence properties of poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene)/polyvinylcarbazole blends: Role of composition on the emission colour stability and electroluminescence efficiency

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs), based on blue-emitting polyfluorenes are usually prone to the appearance of a contaminant green emission (centered around 520 nm), leading to an apparent whitish light emission. We find that, for LEDs based on poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene), PFO, the blending with the hole transporting polyvinylcarbazole, PVK, can suppress such green emission. LEDs based on a PFO/PVK blend with a 1:2 weight ratio and with aluminum cathodes show a quite stable blue emission. This result reveals the important role played by the interchain interactions on the observed contaminant green emission. In addition, we observe that in Al-based devices blending causes a decrease in EL efficiency while in Mg-based devices we obtained higher efficiencies with the blend PFO:3PVK when compared with neat PFO-based devices.

Photoluminescence and electroluminescence studies of polyvinyl carbazole films

Polyvinyl carbazole (PVK) film has been prepared by solution method. Its absorption, photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) have been studied. For PL and absorption studies, film of PVK was prepared by spreading PVK solution on clean glass plate. The dried film was taken out of the glass plate and used for absorption, thickness measurement and PL studies. The film is transparent in the visible region and absorption starts at 340 nm wavelength. The absorption peaks are obtained at 280, 250 and 220 nm, indicating that optical gap of film is 3.65 eV and molecular orbitals exist at 4.43, 4.96 and 5.64 eV. PL studies reveal that excitation by violet light gives luminescence at 430, 480 and 690 nm. For EL studies, cell is prepared by depositing PVK film on a portion of conducting glass plate and taking aluminum foil as second electrode. It is observed from the characteristics that the current varies linearly, where as EL intensity varies non-linearly with increasing voltage. Higher brightness has been observed at higher frequencies. EL spectrum shows a sharp peak at 400 nm and a broad and less intense peak at 700 nm, which are attributed to radiative decay of singlet exciton and defect centers, respectively.     

Chemical role of amines in the colloidal synthesis of CdSe quantum dots and their luminescence properties

The role of organic amines in the colloidal synthesis of CdSe quantum dots (QDs) has been studied. CdSe QDs were synthesized from the source solutions containing 5 vol% of amines having various alkyl chain lengths, stereochemical sizes and electron donation abilities. The role of the additional amines was evaluated on the basis of the photoluminescence (PL) properties such as PL wavelength and intensity of the obtained CdSe QDs. The observed PL spectra were explained by the fact that the amines behaved as capping ligands on the surface of the QDs in the product colloidal solution and complex ligands for cadmium in the source solutions. It was shown that the particle size was controlled by the diffusion process depending on the mass and stereochemical shape of the amines, and the luminescence intensity increased with the increasing electron donation ability and capping density of the amines.     

Colloidal quantum dots conjugated with human serum albumin – interactions and bioimaging properties

Quantum dots, due to their unique optical properties, constitute significant materials for many areas of nanotechnology and bionanotechnology. This work presents a review of researches dedicated to the interaction between quantum dots (QDs) with human serum albumin (HSA) and human cell culture as important for nanomedicine applications. The optical properties of bio-nanocomplexes formed by nanoparticles including colloidal QDs (e.g., CdTe, CdS, CdCoS) and albumin are displayed. The absorption spectra show that adding HSA to colloidal QDs leads to a gradual decrease of absorption and broadening of the exciton structure. The photoluminescence quenching results indicate that the quenching effect of QDs on HSA fluorescence depends on the size and temperature. The nature of quenching is rather static, resulting in forming QD-HSA complexes. The CdTe QD-HSA complexes show chemical stability in a PBS buffer. Furthermore, it is stable in cytoplasm and suitable for cell labeling, tracking, and other bioimaging applications.

基于聚合物-量子点共混的量子点发光二极管

在ITO玻璃上制备了ITO/poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene)∶poly(styrene sulphonate)(PEDOT∶PASS)/poly(N,N-bis(4-butylphenyl)-N,N-bis(phenyl)benzidine(poly-TPD)/QD/1,3,5-Tri(1-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)phenyl(TPBi)/Li F/Al结构的量子点发光二极管(QD-LED)。通过优化量子点的浓度,发现浓度为30 mg/m L时的器件性能最优,最大外量子效率(EQE)为0.83%,最大发光亮度为4 076 cd/m2。为了进一步提高QD-LED的发光效率,将QD掺入聚合物poly(N-vinylcarbazole)(PVK)和1,3-Bis(5-(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)benzene(OXD-7)中,以使得注入的电子和空穴更加平衡,同时还有助于能量传递,降低QD团聚及修饰QD薄膜表面,减少激子猝灭效应等。为此,通过旋涂和蒸镀两步法制备ITO/PEDOT∶PASS/poly-TPD/(PVK∶OXD-7)∶QD/TPBi/Li F/Al结构的器件,改变(PVK∶OXD-7)∶QD比例(1∶1,1∶3,1∶5,0∶1),发现(PVK∶OXD-7)∶QD为1∶3时的QD-LED具有最优性能,最大EQE为1.97%,相当于非掺杂器件的2.3倍,并且发光峰没有发生偏移。
