Thia- and selena-diazole containing polymers for near-infrared light-emitting diodes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the optical characterization of near-infrared (NIR) emitters for polymer light-emitting diode (PLEDs) applications based on the copolymerization of a phthalimide-thiophene host polymer with a low-gap emitter containing the bisthienyl(benzotriazolothiadiazole) unit. We investigate different loadings of the low-gap emitter (in the range 1–3% by weight) and the substitution of a sulphur atom with a selenium atom to further extend the emission in the NIR up to 1000 nm. PLEDs based on copolymers with 1% loading give the best efficiency (0.09%) and show an almost pure NIR EL (95% in the NIR) peaking at 895 nm.

In this research, the lifetime of green organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) is studied using four passivation layers. To encapsulate the OLEDs, MgF2, YF3, composed of alternating MgF2/ZnS and YF3/ZnS layers were grown by thermal vacuum deposition. Measurements show that the device lifetime is significantly improved by using YF3 and ZnS as passivation layers. However, diodes encapsulated by Mg...
