Abstract:Electroluminescence (EL) phenomena are closely linked to the space charge and degradation in insulating polymers, and dominated by the luminescence and trap centers. EL emission has been promising in defining the onset of electrical aging and in the investigation of dissipation mechanisms. Generally, polymeric degradation reveals the increment of the density of luminescence and trap centers, so a fundamental study is proposed to correlate the EL emission of insulating polymers and their trapping parameters. A sensitive photon counting system is constructed to detect the weak EL. The time- and phase-resolved EL characteristics from different polymers (LDPE, PP and PTFE) are investigated with a planar electrode configuration under stepped ac voltage in vacuum. In succession, each sample is charged with exposing to multi-needle corona discharge, and then its surface potential decay is continuously recorded at a constant temperature. Based on the isothermal relaxation current theory, the energy level and density of both electron and hole trap distribution in the surface layer of each polymer is obtained. It is preliminarily concluded that EL phenomena are strongly affected by the trap properties, and for different polymers, its EL intensity is in direct contrast to its surface trap density, and this can be qualitatively explained by the trapping and detrapping sequence of charge carriers in trap centers with different energy level.
