Abstract

Organic thin film EL devices using PPV(poly (p-phenylenevinylene)) as emitter were fabricated on various conditions and structures, their electro-optical properties were estimated. Fabricated EL devices had structures of single layer(ITO(indium tin oxide)/PPV/Mg), double layer(ITO/PVK(poly(N-vinylcarbazole))/PPV/Mg and ITO/PPV/Polymer matrix + PBD/Mg) and three layer (ITO/PVK/PPV/PS(polystyrene)+PBD(butyl-2-(4-bipheny])-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole))/Mg), their electro-optical characteristics were compared with each other. In structure of double layer (ITO/PPV /Polymer matrix + PBD/Mg), the used polymer-matrices were PMMA(poly(methyl methacrylate), PC(polycarbonate), PS and MCH(side chain liquid crystalline homopolymer). When PS as a hole transport layer was used, the luminance characteristics on concentration of PBD was obtained. In results, current-voltage-luminance curves of fabricated devices had characteristics of tunneling effect and the device showed a stable light emitting.

PPV(poly(p-phenylenevinylene))를 발광체로 이용한 유기 박막 EL 소자를 다양한 구조와 조건으로 제작하였으며, 그 전기-광학적 특성을 평가하였다. 제작된 EL 소자는 단층구조(ITO(indium tin oxide)PPV/Mg), 이층구조 (ITO/PVK(poly(N-vinylcarbazole))/PPV)Mg와 ITO/PPV/Polymer matrix+PBD/Mg) 그리고 삼층구조 (ITO/PVK/PPV/PS(polystyrene)+PBD(butyl-2-(4-biphenyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole))/Mg)를 가지며, 그들의 전기광학적 특성을 상호 비교하였다. 이층구조(ITO/PPV)Polymer matrix+PBD/Mg)에서는 PMMA (poly(methyl methacrylate)), PC(polycarbonate) PS 와 MCH(side chain liquid crystalline homopolymer)를 고분자 메트릭스로 사용하였으며, 특히, PS 고분자 메트 릭스를 전자수송층으로 사용하는 경우에 전자수송제인 PBD의 농도에 따른 발광휘도 특성을 구하였다. 제작된 소자의 인가전압에 따른 전류, 휘도특성을 분석한 결과 터널링효과를 나타내었고 안정된 발광특성을 가진다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
