The current and brightness characteristics of the devices are tested and the electroluminescent spectra are described. Both fluorescence and phosphorescence are ob- served,and an obvious increase in external quantum efficiency is realized compared to undoped devices when different phosphorescent dopant concentrations are tried. Thus,the phosphorescent emission from triplet excited states might be an effective way to increase the efficiency of OLEDs when the concentration of the phosphorescent dopant is properiy controlled.展开更多

Spiro-functionalization may narrow the emission spectra (with smaller tail at Ionger wavelengths)of fluorene homopolymers to provide purer blue emission. The thermal spectral stability of the polymers could also beimproved because of the elevation of the glass transition temperature caused by the spiro-functionalization. However, theexcimer emission in fluorene homopolymers is not suppressed by the spiro-functionalization. Alternate copolymers of 9,9-dihexylfluorene and substituted phenylenes may emit efficient blue ligh both in solution and in film. The optical propertiesare dependent on the substituion on the phenylene ring. The alkoxy-substituted polymers displayed efficient PL and EL andgood thermal spectral stability. The HOMO and LUMO energy levels of the polymers based on the backbone structure couldbe tuned in a wide range by attaching different functional groups on the phenylene ring. By attaching europium(III) complexat the ends of the side chains in the alternate copolymers, we have demonstrated a new approach to achieving red emissionwith a very narrow spectrum. The copolymers of 9,9-dihexylfluorene and thiophene and bithiophene with differentsubstitutions were also synthesized to study the effect of substitution and regioregularity on the optical and other physicalproperties of the polymers.展开更多

With temperature increasing, it was noted that the emission intensity of as-repared phosphors decreased considerably more rapidly when pumped by 460 nm than by 340 nm. The temperature-intensity curves under different excitation wavelengths were obtained using an Arrhenius function, and the corresponding activation energies were also obtained respectively. Thus, the experimental phenomenon was discussed in terms of nonradiative decay rate. The effects of as-prepared phosphors on the performance of the white LED with changing temperature were also studied.展开更多

The n-type ZnO epilayer is deposited by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition （MOCVD） on a MOCVD grown Mg-doped p-GaN layer to form a p-n heterojunction. During the etching process, the relation between the etching depth and the etching time is linear in a HF and NH4 CI solution of a certain ratio. The etching rates of the SiO2 and ZnO are well controlled,which are essential for device fabrication. The current-voltage relationship of this heterojunction shows a diode-like rectifying behavior. In contrast to previous reports,electroluminescence （EL） emissions are observed by the naked eye at room temperature from the n-ZnO/p-GaN heterojunction under forward-and reverse-bias. The origins of these EL emissions are discussed in comparison with the pho- toluminescence spectra.展开更多

文摘We investigate the polarization-induced doping in the gradient variation of Al composition in the pAl_(0.75)Ga_(0.25)N/Al_xGa_(1-x)N hole injection layer(HIL)for deep ultraviolet light-emitting diodes(DUV-LEDs)with an ultrathin p-GaN(4 nm)ohmic contact layer capable of emitting 277 nm.The experimental results show that the external quantum efficiency(EQE)and wall plug efficiency(WPE)of the structure graded from 0.75 to 0.55 in the HIL reach 5.49%and 5.04%,which are improved significantly by 182%and 209%,respectively,compared with the structure graded from 0.75 to 0.45,exhibiting a tremendous improvement.Both theoretical speculations and simulation results support that the larger the difference between 0.75 and x in the HIL,the higher the hole concentration that should be induced;thus,the DUV-LED has a higher internal quantum efficiency(IQE).Meanwhile,as the value of x decreases,the absorption of the DUV light emitted from the active region by the HIL is enhanced,reducing the light extraction efficiency(LEE).The IQE and LEE together affect the EQE performance of DUV-LEDs.To trade off the contradiction between the enhanced IQE and decreased LEE caused by the decrease in Al composition,the Al composition in the HIL was optimized through theoretical calculations and experiments.

文摘The performance of inverted quantum-dot light-emitting diodes(QLEDs)based on solution-processed hole transport layers(HTLs)has been limited by the solvent-induced damage to the quantum dot(QD)layer during the spin-coating of the HTL.The lack of compatibility between the HTL’s solvent and the QD layer results in an uneven surface,which negatively impacts the overall device performance.In this work,we develop a novel method to solve this problem by modifying the QD film with 1,8-diaminooctane to improve the resistance of the QD layer for the HTL’s solvent.The uniform QD layer leads the inverted red QLED device to achieve a low turn-on voltage of 1.8 V,a high maximum luminance of 105500 cd/m2,and a remarkable maximum external quantum efficiency of 13.34%.This approach releases the considerable potential of HTL materials selection and offers a promising avenue for the development of high-performance inverted QLEDs.

文摘Impedance spectroscopy has been increasingly employed in quantum dot light-emitting diodes(QLEDs)to investigate the charge dynamics and device physics.In this review,we introduce the mathematical basics of impedance spectroscopy that applied to QLEDs.In particular,we focus on the Nyquist plot,Mott-Schottky analysis,capacitance-frequency and capacitance-voltage characteristics,and the d C/d V measurement of the QLEDs.These impedance measurements can provide critical information on electrical parameters such as equivalent circuit models,characteristic time constants,charge injection and recombination points,and trap distribution of the QLEDs.However,this paper will also discuss the disadvantages and limitations of these measurements.Fundamentally,this review provides a deeper understanding of the device physics of QLEDs through the application of impedance spectroscopy,offering valuable insights into the analysis of performance loss and degradation mechanisms of QLEDs.
文摘A numerical model for bilayer organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is developed under the basis of trapped charge limited conduction.The dependences of the current density on the layer thickness,trap properties and carrier mobility of the hole transport layer (HTL) and emission layer (EML) in bilayer OLEDs of the structure anode/HTL/EML/cathode are numerically investigated.It is found that,for given values of the total thickness of organic layers,reduced depth of trap,total density of trap,and carrier mobility of HTL as well as EML,there exists an optimal thickness ratio of HTL to EML,by which a maximal quantum efficiency can be achieved.Through optimization of the thickness ratio,an enhancement of current density and quantum efficiency of as much as two orders of magnitude can be obtained.The dependences of the optimal thickness ratio to the characteristic trap energy,total density of trap and carrier mobility are numerically analyzed.
文摘To investigate effective means of improving the efficiency of organic light-emitting devices （OLEDs） by making full use of ,triplet emission, a phosphorescent material Pt （II） Octaethylporphine （PtOEP） is doped into polymer host polyspirobifluorene （Spiro） to allow radiative recombination of triplet excitons. The current and brightness characteristics of the devices are tested and the electroluminescent spectra are described. Both fluorescence and phosphorescence are ob- served,and an obvious increase in external quantum efficiency is realized compared to undoped devices when different phosphorescent dopant concentrations are tried. Thus,the phosphorescent emission from triplet excited states might be an effective way to increase the efficiency of OLEDs when the concentration of the phosphorescent dopant is properiy controlled.
文摘Several series of fluorene-based light-emitting polymers with the emphasis on achieving efficient and stable bluelight emission are reported. Spiro-functionalization may narrow the emission spectra (with smaller tail at Ionger wavelengths)of fluorene homopolymers to provide purer blue emission. The thermal spectral stability of the polymers could also beimproved because of the elevation of the glass transition temperature caused by the spiro-functionalization. However, theexcimer emission in fluorene homopolymers is not suppressed by the spiro-functionalization. Alternate copolymers of 9,9-dihexylfluorene and substituted phenylenes may emit efficient blue ligh both in solution and in film. The optical propertiesare dependent on the substituion on the phenylene ring. The alkoxy-substituted polymers displayed efficient PL and EL andgood thermal spectral stability. The HOMO and LUMO energy levels of the polymers based on the backbone structure couldbe tuned in a wide range by attaching different functional groups on the phenylene ring. By attaching europium(III) complexat the ends of the side chains in the alternate copolymers, we have demonstrated a new approach to achieving red emissionwith a very narrow spectrum. The copolymers of 9,9-dihexylfluorene and thiophene and bithiophene with differentsubstitutions were also synthesized to study the effect of substitution and regioregularity on the optical and other physicalproperties of the polymers.

文摘The well crystalline YAG：Ce^3＋ phosphor was synthesized by sold-state method, and the temperature dependence of excitation and emission spectra of YAG：Ce^3＋ phosphor were investigated in the temperature range from room temperature to 573 K. With temperature increasing, it was noted that the emission intensity of as-repared phosphors decreased considerably more rapidly when pumped by 460 nm than by 340 nm. The temperature-intensity curves under different excitation wavelengths were obtained using an Arrhenius function, and the corresponding activation energies were also obtained respectively. Thus, the experimental phenomenon was discussed in terms of nonradiative decay rate. The effects of as-prepared phosphors on the performance of the white LED with changing temperature were also studied.
文摘We report the fabrication and characterization of light-emitting diodes based on n-ZnO/p-GaN heterojunctions. The n-type ZnO epilayer is deposited by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition （MOCVD） on a MOCVD grown Mg-doped p-GaN layer to form a p-n heterojunction. During the etching process, the relation between the etching depth and the etching time is linear in a HF and NH4 CI solution of a certain ratio. The etching rates of the SiO2 and ZnO are well controlled,which are essential for device fabrication. The current-voltage relationship of this heterojunction shows a diode-like rectifying behavior. In contrast to previous reports,electroluminescence （EL） emissions are observed by the naked eye at room temperature from the n-ZnO/p-GaN heterojunction under forward-and reverse-bias. The origins of these EL emissions are discussed in comparison with the pho- toluminescence spectra.

文摘Sr2SiO4：xEu^2＋ phosphors were synthesized through the solid-state reaction technique. The crystal phase of Sr2SiO4：xEu^2＋ phosphor manipulated by Eu^2＋ concentration was studied. The phase transited from β to α＇ in Sr2SiO4：xEu^2＋ phosphor with increasing europium concentration. The single β phase was formed as x≤005 and changed α＇ phase when x〉0.01. The emission spectrum of the β-Sr2SiO4：Eu^2＋ phosphor consisted of a green-yellow broadband peaking at around 540 nm and a blue band at 470 nm under near ultraviolet excitation. The white LEDs by combining near ultraviolet chips with β-Sr2SiO4：Eu^2＋ phosphors were fabricated. The luminous efficiency （15.7lm/W） was higher than α＇-Sr2SiO4：Eu^2＋ phosphor white LED.

文摘Light-emitting diodes based on lead halide perovskite have attracted great attention due to their outstanding performance.However,their application is plagued by the toxicity of Pb and the poor stability.Herein novel copper-based all inorganic perovskite CsCu2I3 with much enhanced stability has been reported with a potential photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY)over 20%and self-trapped excitons(STE).By taking advantage of its extraordinary thermal stability,we successfully fabricate high-quality CsCu2I3 film through direct vacuum-based deposition(VBD)of CsCu2I3 powder.The resulting film shows almost the same PLQY with the synthesized powder,as well as excellent uniformity and stability.The perovskite light-emitting diodes(Pe-LED)based on the evaporated CsCu2I3 emitting layer achieve a luminescence of 10 cd/m2 and an external quantum efficiency(EQE)of 0.02%.To the best of our knowledge,this is the first CsCu2I3 Pe-LED fabricated by VBD with STE property,which offers a new avenue for lead-free Pe-LED.

文摘All-inorganic CsPbBr_(3) perovskite quantum dots(QDs)have received great attention in white light emission because of their outstanding properties.However,their practical application is hindered by poor stability.Herein,we propose a simple strategy to synthesize excellent stability and efficient emission of CsPbBr_(3) QDs by using 2-hexyldecanoic acid(DA)as a ligand to replace the regular oleic acid(OA)ligand.Thanks to the strong binding energy between DA ligand and QDs,the modified QDs not only show a high photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY)of 96%but also exhibit high stability against ethanol and water.Thereby warm white light-emitting diodes(WLEDs)are constructed by combining lig-and modified CsPbBr_(3) QDs with red AgInZnS QDs on blue emitting InGaN chips,exhibiting a color rendering index of 93,a power efficiency of 64.8 lm/W,a CIE coordinate of(0.44,0.42)and correlated color temperature value of 3018 K.In ad-dition,WLEDs based on ligand modified CsPbBr_(3) QDs also exhibit better thermal performance than that of WLEDs based on the regular CsPbBr_(3) QDs.The combination of improved efficiency and better thermal stability with high color quality indicates that the modified CsPbBr_(3) QDs are ideal for WLEDs application.

文摘Metal halide perovskites have attracted tremendous interest due to their excellent optical and electrical properties,and they find many promising applications in the optoelectronic fields of solar cells,light-emitting diodes,and photodetectors.Thanks to the contributions of international researchers,significant progress has been made for perovskite light-emitting diodes(Pero-LEDs).The external quantum efficiencies(EQEs)of Pero-LEDs with emission of green,red,and near-infrared have all exceeded 20%.However,the blue Pero-LEDs still lag due to the poor film quality and deficient device structure.Herein,we summarize the strategies for preparing blue-emitting perovskites and categorize them into two:compositional engineering and size controlling of the emitting units.The advantages and disadvantages of both strategies are discussed,and a perspective of preparing high-performance blue-emitting perovskite is proposed.The challenges and future directions of blue PeroLEDs fabrication are also discussed.
