AbstractWe have investigated a new light emitting material, Ru(bpy)3 2+ polyester for fabricating electrochemically based solid state light emitting devices using the layer-by-layer sequential adsorption processing technique. By controlling the deposition conditions such as the pH of the Ru(bpy)32+ polyester and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) solutions, we systematically altered the layer thickness and bilayer composition to obtain multilayers that contain different amounts of Ru(bpy)32+ polyester (from 46% to 70%). Differences in the Ru(bpy)32+ polyester composition, in turn, influence the device performance dramatically.

AbstractLayer-by-layer molecular self-assembly has been used to fabricate multilayer heterostructures containing poly(phenylene vinylene) (PPV) and a variety of polyanions. These ultrathin films exhibit widely different photoluminescence intensities and peak positions (emission color) depending on the polyanion used. The characteristics of light-emitting devices based on such films are described. This represents the first demonstration of working organic light-emitting diodes, the active layer of which consists of ultrathin, self-assembled films of between 130 - 500 Å

Europium complexes exhibited intense red fluorescence with a narrow spectral bandwidth (5-10 nm). But non-uniform blending or dispersion of complex resulted in phase separation, decomposition and inefficient energy transfer to reduce emission efficiency. The complexes were covalently attached to the main chain of polymers, which improved film quality and solubility. Eu(TTA)2(AA)phen as europium complex monomer (ECM) was prepared by Eu3+ coordinating with 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), acrylic acid (AA) and 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTA). Fluorescent polymer marked as p1-30 (molar ratio for ECM/N-vinylcarbazole (NVK), 1/30) was synthesized. The emissions of ECM and p1-30 in the films peaked at ca. 610 nm. The fluorescence lifetime of p1-30 in solid was measured to be 384.58 (τ1) and 802.44 μs (τ2). The highest occupied molecular orbit (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbit (LUMO) energy levels were -5.36 and -1.99 eV. The red organic light-emitting devices (OLED) A ITO/PEDOT: PSS/PBD: p1-30/AlQ3/LiF/Al and B ITO/PEDOT: PSS/PBD: p1-30/BCP/AlQ3/LiF/Al were fabricated. Devices A and B mainly emitted at 614 nm with full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 12.6 nm and exhibited luminance of 375 and 136 cd/m2 with Commission International de L’Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.50, 0.42) and (0.63, 0.35). The copolymer p1-30 had good film quality to avoid phase separation. The emission from the carbazole moieties was suppressed, electroluminescent (EL) spectra revealed that efficient intramolecular energy transfer from carbazole unit to europium complex occurred and that emission efficiency was greatly improved. Device B showed monochromatic red emission.
