光电流谱、光致发光光谱和紫外可见吸收光谱在纳米半导体光电器件研究中的联用

在纳米半导体中由于纳米效应(如量子尺寸效应),其电子结构与块体半导体有所不同。进一步地,当纳米半导体与基底和其他组分结合制成器件后,其性质又受到基底或其他组分的影响,这两点导致了基于纳米半导体的光电器件的性能以及相应表征方法也大不相同。将光电流谱、光致发光光谱和紫外可见吸收光谱三种技术有机地结合起来,可以更好地表征纳米半导体的电子性质和光电性能。本文根据纳米半导体材料与电极的电子性质特点及其测量,结合本课题组前期工作,举例介绍三种谱学方法相结合应用于探究光伏电池和电致发光器件的纳米半导体材料的性能,以及纳米半导体材料表面态的表征。

Synthesis of styrene‐g‐polyisoprene nanoparticles by emulsion polymerization and its effect on properties of polyisoprene composites

The graft copolymerization of styrene onto nanosized polyisoprene (PIP) was carried out by using cumene hydroperoxide and tetraethylene pentamine as redox initiators. The high conversion and high degree of grafting could be achieved when a small particle was used as the core polymer. The grafting efficiency and monomer conversion increased with increasing reaction temperature and monomer concentration. Transmission electron microscopy indicated that the small PIP nanoparticles were completely coated with polystyrene (PS) by grafting resulting in a core shell morphology of nanosized graft PIP. Nanosized PIP and nanosized PS‐g‐PIP could be used as compatibilizers for vulcanized rubber latex. The addition of nanosized PIP and PS‐g‐PIP strongly influenced the mechanical properties of the natural rubber (NR)‐based compound. Incorporation of nanosized PIP and PS‐g‐PIP resulted in an improvement of the resistance of the compounds to heat aging. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

含1,1-二（4-（N,N-二甲基胺基）苯基）-2,3,4,5-四苯基噻咯的聚合物在三种阴极结构中的电致发光性能

设计合成了一种1,1-位为二（4-（N,N-二甲基胺基）苯基的新型噻咯单体,并与2,7-芴单体聚合得到六苯基噻咯单体投料量为1%、10%、20%的三种共聚物PF-N-HPS1～20.研究了这些共聚物的紫外吸收光谱、电化学性质、光致发光光谱和电致发光性能.PF-N-HPS的HOMO能级为5.25～5.58eV,呈现绿光发射.以PF-N-HPS为发光层,制作了三种聚合物发光二极管（器件结构A：ITO/PEDOT/PF-N-HPS/Al;器件结构B：ITO/PEDOT/PF-N-HPS/Ba/Al;器件结构C：ITO/PEDOT/PF-N-HPS/TPBI/Ba/Al）.其中器件结构A的电致发光效率仅为0.1～0.33cd/A,说明PF-N-HPS中的4-（N,N-二甲基胺基）苯基结构不能使单独的Al阴极实现良好的电子注入.采用了低功函金属Ba阴极的器件结构B能改善电子的注入,使电致发光效率提高到0.85～1.44cd/A.器件结构C采用TPBI（HOMO：6.2eV）作为电子传输和空穴阻挡层,促进了电子和空穴的有效复合,进一步提高了电致发光效率（4.56～7.96cd/A）,其中TPBI层将噻咯聚合物与金属阴极隔离可能减少发光层在阴极界面处的激子猝灭也起到了一定的作用,器件结构C较器件结构B还获得了更好的绿光光谱.     

Fabrication of 2D photonic crystals using block copolymer patterns on as grown LEDs

Di-block copolymer polystyrene-block-polymethyl methacrylate (PS-b-PMMA) was used to make patterns over a large area of as grown LEDs. The polymer patterns on LEDs surface could be transferred to the underlying p-GaN, the topmost layer of as grown LEDs by both reactive ion etching (RIE) and photo-enhanced chemical (PEC) etching. Removal of remaining polymer chains results in patterned LEDs which shows higher light extraction efficiency. In our experiment, much higher intensity for patterned LEDs in both photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) data plot were found. Similar improvements were found in I-V and L-I curves for patterned LEDs.     

Electroluminescence performances of 1,1-bis(4-(N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl)-2,3,4,5-tetraphenylsilole based polymers in three cathode architectures

A new silole monomer with two 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl substitutions on silicon atom as designed and synthesized.Three copolymers PF-N-HPS1,PF-N-HPS10 and PF-N-HPS20 were then obtained by copolymerizations of 2,7-fluorene derivatives with the silole monomer at feed ratios of 1%,10%,and 20%.Their UV-vis absorption,electrochemical,photoluminescent,and electroluminescent (EL) properties were investigated.PF-N-HPS possessed HOMO levels of 5.25-5.58 eV,and showed green emissions.Using PF-N-HPS as the emissive layer,three different polymer light-emitting diodes were fabricated as device A with ITO/PEDOT/PF-N-HPS/Al,device B with ITO/PEDOT/PF-N-HPS/Ba/Al,and device C with ITO/PEDOT/PF-N-HPS/TPBI/Ba/Al.For the device A,PF-N-HPS only showed very low EL efficiency of 0.06-0.33 cd/A,indicating that the Al cathode could not inject electron efficiently to the emissive polymers containing the 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl groups.For the device B,low work function Ba supplied better electron injections,and the EL efficiency could be improved to 0.85-1.44 cd/A.TPBI with a deep HOMO level of 6.2 eV could enhance electron transport and hole blocking.Thus modified recombinations and largely elevated EL efficiency of 4.56-7.96 cd/A were achieved for the device C.The separation of the emissive layer and metal cathode with the TPBI layer may also suppress exciton quenching at the cathode interface.     

ToF-SIMS imaging of the nanoscale phase separation in polymeric light emitting diodes: effect of nanostructure on device efficiency

The nanostructure of the light emissive layer (EL) of polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs) was investigated using force modulation microscopy (FMM) and scanning time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) excited with focused Bi(3)(2+) primary beam. Three-dimensional nanostructures were reconstructed from high resolution ToF-SIMS images acquired with different C(60)(+) sputtering times. The observed nanostructure is related to the efficiency of the PLED. In poly(9-vinyl-carbazole) (PVK) based EL, a high processing temperature (60 °C) yielded less nanoscale phase separation than a low processing temperature (30 °C). This nanostructure can be further suppressed by replacing the host polymer with poly[oxy(3-(9H-9-carbazol-9-ilmethyl-2-methyltrimethylene)] (SL74) and poly[3-(carbazol-9-ylmethyl)-3-methyloxetane] (RS12), which have similar chemical structures and energy levels as PVK. The device efficiency increases when the phase separation inside the EL is suppressed. While the spontaneous formation of a bicontinuous nanostructure inside the active layer is known to provide a path for charge carrier transportation and to be the key to highly efficient polymeric solar cells, these nanostructures are less efficient for trapping the carrier inside the EL and thus lower the power conversion efficiency of the PLED devices.     

Synthesis and characterization of polyfluorenes containing bisphenazine units

Novel conjugated copolymers based on 9,9‐dioctylfluorene and bisphenazine (BP) were synthesized by Suzuki polymerization. Energy transfer from the conjugated main chain to the BP moieties was observed. Full energy transfer was achieved when the molar content of the bisphenazine was 20% (20BPPF) in toluene solution. The similar phenomena were observed even for 1% bisphenazine content copolymer (1BPPF) in film. The lowest occupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels (?3.06 eV) of the copolymers were lower than that of the polyfluorene homopolymer (PFO; ?2.65 eV), indicating that the introduction of the BP unit was benefit to electron injection. Single‐layer electroluminescent devices (ITO/PEDOT:PSS/polymer/LiF/Al) were fabricated to investigate their electroluminescence (EL) performances. The maximum brightness and current efficiency of all BPPF copolymers surpassed the PFO homopolymer. The best single‐layer device was based on 5BPPF, with a maximum brightness of 1532 cd/m² and current efficiency of 1.09 cd/A. Much higher efficiency could be achieved for multilayer EL devices of 5BPPF (ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PVK/polymer/TPBI/LiF/Al), which showed a maximum current efficiency of 10.01 cd/A. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Iridium complex grafted to 3,6‐carbazole‐alt‐tetraphenylsilane copolymers for blue electrophosphorescence

We designed a 3,6‐dibromo‐9‐hexyl‐9H‐carbazole derivative with the blue emissive iridium complex bis[2‐(4,6‐difluorophenyl)pyridyl‐N,C^2′](picolinato)iridium(III) (FIrpic) linked at the alkyl terminal. Based on this monomer, novel 3,6‐carbazole‐alt‐tetraphenylsilane copolymers grafted with FIrpic were synthesized by palladium‐catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction, and the content of FIrpic in the polymers could be controlled by feed ratio of the monomers. The polymer films mainly show blue emission from FIrpic, and the emission intensity from the polymer backbones is much weaker compared with the doped analogues, which demonstrates an efficient energy transfer from polymeric host to covalently bonded guest. The phase separation in the polymers was suppressed, which can be identified by atomic force microscopy and designed electroluminescent (EL) devices. EL devices based on the polymers exhibited blue phosphorescence from FIrpic. The luminous efficiency of preliminary devices reached 2.3 cd/A, and the efficiency roll‐off at high current densities was suppressed. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Luminescence properties of PPV derivatives bearing substituted carbazole pendants

A series of PPV derivatives bearing substituted and unsubstituted carbazole and 2-ethylhexyloxy pendants were prepared and their photo- (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) properties were studied. Substituted carbazole structures were N-phenylcarbazole and 3,6-dimethoxycarbazole. The substituents on the carbazole pendants caused little change in UV-vis absorption, PL, and EL when compared with the polymer bearing the unsubstituted carbazole pendants. The presence of the benzene ring between the main chain and the carbazole pendant increased the threshold electric field in EL. We could obtain maximum brightness of ca. 17,000 - 30,000 cd/m² for the polymers carrying the unsubstituted and dimethoxy substituted carbazole pendants.     

Synthesis and characterization of a soluble blue light emitting alternating copolymer

An alternating copolymer with monomer units of fluorene and phenylenedivinylene was synthesized by reaction between n-hexyl fluorene phosphonium salt and isophthalic aldehyde based on the Wittig reaction. The polymer solution in chloroform was made into a film with a very fine surface by spin-casting on indium-tin oxide (ITO) coated glass to fabricate a light emitting diode (LED) with an aluminum negative electrode. The optical absorption spectrum of the solid film shows a peak at 370 ran while the PL spectrum has the main peak at 560 nm with a secondary peak at 440 nm and the EL spectrum has a single peak at 560 nm showing the Stokes shift of 190 nm. The peak in the PL spectrum shifts to 420 nm with a vibronic structure at 440 nm on either dilution by chloroform or blending with polyvinylcarbazole (PVK). The emissive polymer bulk seemed to generate sites for excimers and molecular aggregates which were diminished on the dilution or blending. The peak in the EL spectrum also shifts to 440 nm on blending of 20% of the copolymer with PVK. Further dilution to 10% of the copolymer shifts the EL peak to 420 nm with the onset potential of 15 V and the highest quantum efficiency of 0.01% in this series. The concentrated channels were developed in the blends with severe phase separation to show a lower onset potential but poor quantum efficiency.
