ABSTRACTWe describe bilayer structures comprised of a poly (p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV) layer and a trap-free diaryldiamine (TPD) doped in polycarbonate (PC) layer, sandwiched between indium-tin-oxide (ITO) and aluminum (Al) contacts. Two critical phenomena in the operation of polymer based electroluminescent devices, interface injection and carrier range, are investigated. It is established that the ITO/PPV contact is capable of sustaining dark current under trap-free space-charge-limited (TFSCL) conditions into a hole transporting TPD:PC layer. TFSCL currents are not observed in devices without the PPV layer. Upon increasing the thickness of the PPV layer a deviation from the TFSCL regime is observed which is attributed to trapping of the injected holes within PPV. These observations suggest a novel method for estimating the trapping Mobility-lifetime product μτ for holes in PPV. By this means we estimate μτ ∼ 10−9 cm2/V.

A novel derivative of oligo(phenylenvinylene) (OPV), 2,5-diphenyl -1, 4-distyrylbenzene with two trans-double bonds (trans-DPDSB), is used as a blue emitting material in blue and white organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). Blue devices with a configuration of indium-tin oxide (ITO)/N,N´-diphenyl-N,N´-bis(1-naphthyl)-(1,1´-biphenyl)-4,4´-diamine (NPB)/ trans-DPDSB / tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3)/LiF/Al are constructed, where NPB, Alq3 and trans-DPDSB are used as hole-transporting, electron-transporting and light-emitting layers, respectively. The color of emission is changed from blue-green to pure blue when the trans-DPDSB layer is thicker. By inserting an ultrathin 5,6,11,12-tetraphenylnaphthacene (rubrene) yellow light-emitting layer between the Alq3 and trans-DPDSB layers, white OLEDs are obtained. The maximum efficiency and luminance of the blue and white devices are 1.2, 3.0 cd/A, and 1400, 7000 cd/m2, respectively.

ABSTRACTBoth photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) properties of 6,6””-dimethyl-4', 4”'-diphenyl-2,2':6',2”:6”,2”':6”',2””-quinquepyridine (DMDPQPY), a 2,6-linked oligopy- ridine derivative, have been investigated. Two maxima are observed from its PL spectra in solid state, but only one peak appears in its PL in solutions. Emission from the single layer device with indium-tin-oxide (ITO) and Al as the respective anode and cathode (ITO/DMDPQPY/Al) is very weak, but introduction of a hole transporting layer polyvinylcarbazole (PVK), in the double layer device (ITO/PVK/DMDPQPY/Al), increases the luminance significantly indicating a better charge balance. Two peaks appear in the EL spectra, one at 419 nm and another at 536 nm, ascribed to PVK and DMDPQPY respectively.
