Abstract:
Light amplification was successfully demonstrated in an all-organic light transducer based on hybridization of an organic electroluminescent diode and a perylene pigment film as an electron photoinjecting electrode. Amplification gain of photon conversion from red to red light reached 25 with the assistance of effective electron photoinjection due to large photocurrent multiplication in a perylene film. Optical switching behavior caused by feedback of output-light to the photoconductive layer was observed.
