Vacuum deposited N,N-di-1-naphthyl-N,N-diphenyl-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NPD) as a hole transporting (HTL) materials in OLEDs was placed on PEDOT-PSS, a hole injection layer (HIL). PEDOT-PSS was spin-coated on to the ITO glass. $C_{60}$-doped NPD-$C_{60}$(10 wt%) film was formed via co-evaporation process and the morphology of NPD-$C_{60}$ films was investigated using XRD and AFM. The J - V, L - V and current efficiency of multi -layered devices were characterized. According to XRD results, the deposited $C_{60}$ thin film was partially crystalline, but NPD-$C_{60}$ film was observed not to be crystalline, which indicates that $C_{60}$ molecules are uniformly dispersed in the NPD film. By using $C_{60}$-doped NPD-$C_{60}$ film as a HTL, the current density and luminance of multi-layered ITO/PEDOT-PSS/NPD-$C_{60}/Alq_3$/LiF/Al device were significantly increased by about 80% and its efficiency was improved by about 25% in this study.

The high efficient AC powder EL devices classified by low cost and low power consumption type fabricated using screen printing method with film thickness and organic binder. Brightness and current density were measured at frequency range of 400Hz∼1kHz and voltage range of 50∼300V$\_$rms/ to estimate optoelectrical properties of AC powder EL devices, respectively. Frequency generator was used as system producing frequency and voltage of a sine wave. Also brightness and current density were measured by luminometer and multimeter. In the case of low cost type AC powder EL device, brightness and current density were about 43 cd/m$^2$and 20$\mu$A/cm$^2$when the thickness of phosphor and dielectric layer was 45∼50$\mu$m under no addition of plasticizer respectively. In the case of low power consumption type AC powder EL device, brightness and current density were about 74 cd/m$^2$and 30∼40$\mu$A/cm$^2$when the thickness of phosphor and dielectric layer was 45∼50$\mu$m and 15∼20$\mu$m under addition of 15wt% plasticizer respectively. Also, AC powder EL device fabricated in this study showed absolutely excellent characteristics as the lifetime was longer than products of other company.

As a new class of electroluminescent (EL) polymers, PPV-based polymers containing sulfone group in the main chain were synthesized through Witting polymerization reaction to control n-conjugation length and energy levels for predictable light emission and enhanced device performance. These EL polymers showed good solubility in common organic solvents and high thermal stability with initial decomposition temperature of ca. $400^{circ}$ and glass transition temperature around $200^{circ}C$ Emission colors were tuned from green to deep blue by reducing ${\pi}$-conjugated length between sulfone groups. It was also noted from the cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurements and semiempirical calculations that sulfone group with high electron affinity effectively lowered HOMO-LUMO energy levels to enhance EL device performance.

2,7-bis(3',6'-diphenyl-[1,1':2',1"-terphenyl]-4'-yl)-9,9'-spirobi[fluorene] (BTPSF) and 2,7-bis(1,4-diphenyltriphenylen-2-yl)-9,9'-spirobi[fluorene] (BDTSF) were successfully synthesized as novel blue-emission materials for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on the spirobifluorene (SBF) moiety. BTPSF and BDTSF were obtained in high purity via a Diels-Alder reaction, without the use of a catalyst. Photoluminescence spectra of the synthesized materials showed maximum emitting wave-lengths of approximately 381 and 407 nm in solution and 395 and 434 nm in the film state, for BTPSF and BDTSF, respectively, indicating ultra-violet and deep blue emission colors. BDTSF was applied as an emissive layer (EML) in non-doped devices and achieved a current efficiency of 0.61 cd/A and an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 0.46%.

Organic electroluminescence devices(ELD) were fabricated using by molecularly doped method with N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine(TPD) as a hole transport agent, squarylium dye as an emitting agent, and side chain liquid crystalline polymer(MCH) as matrix for TPD. An indium-tin-oxide(ITO) coated glass and an Mg electrode were used as the hole and the electron injecting electrode, respectively. The highest stability of ELD was obtained by spin coating method using dichloroethane as a solvent at a polymer/TPD concentration of 0.005 wt%. For the EL cell with ITO/polymer-TPD/SQ dye/Mg structure, we achieved light red luminescence at a current of 102 mA/$cm^2$ with an applied voltage of 23 V.

Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) are regarded as the next generation display and solid-state lighting due to their superb achievements from extensive research efforts on improving the efficiency and stability of OLEDs in addition to developing new materials. Herein, efficient green phosphorescent OLEDs were obtained by using hexaazatrinaphthylene (HAT) derivatives as a hole injection layer. External quantum and current efficiencies of OLEDs were enhanced from 8.8% and 30.8 cd/A to 13.6% and 47.7 cd/A, respectively by inserting a thin layer of HAT derivatives between the ITO and hole transporting layer. The enhancement of OLEDs was found to be originated from the inserted HAT derivatives, which resulted in the optimized hole-electron balance inside the emission layer.

수소화된 비정질 실리콘 박막 트랜지스터(a-Si:H TFT)의 이력 현상이 능동형 유기 발광 다이오드(Active-Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) 디스플레이 패널을 구동할 경우에, 발생할 수 있는 잔상(Residual Image) 문제를 단위 소자 및 회로에서 실험을 통하여 규명하였다. 게이트 시작 전압을 바꾸어 VGS-ID 특성을 측정할 경우, 게이트 시작 전압이 5V에서 시작한 VGS-ID 곡선이 10V에서 시작한 VGS-ID 곡선에 비해 왼쪽으로 0.15V 이동하였다. 이러한 결과는 게이트 시작 전압의 차이에 의해 발생한 트랩된 전하량(Trapped Charge) 변화로 설명할 수 있다. 또한, 인가하는 게이트 전압 간격을 0.5V에서 0.05V로 감소시켰을 때 전하 디트래핑 비율의 변화(Charge De-trapping Rate)로 인하여, 이력 현상(Hysteresis Phenomenon)으로 인한 단위 소자에서의 문턱전압의 변화가 0.78V에서 0.39V로 감소함을 관찰하였다. 제작된 2-TFT 1-Capacitor의 ANGLED 화소에서 (n-1)번째 프레임에서의 OLED 전류가 (n)번째 프레임에서의 OLED 전류에 35%의 전류오차를 발생시키는 것을 측정 및 분석하였다.

New devices with the structure of ITO/2-TNATA/NPB/TCTA/CBP:$7%Ir(ppy)_3$/BCP/SFC-137/LiF/Al were designed and fabricated to develop high efficiency green phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes and their electroluminescence properties were evaluated. Among the devices with different thicknesses of CBP in a range of $150{\AA}{\sim}350{\AA}$, the best luminance was obtained in the device with $300{\AA}$-thick CBP host. Nearly saturated current efficiencies indicates that the maximum efficiency value can be obtained with CBP thicknesses of $300{\AA}{\sim}350{\AA}$. The current density, luminance, and current efficiency of the PhOLED(phosphorescent organic light emitting diode) with $CBP(300{\AA}):7%Ir(ppy)_3-emissive$ layer at an applied voltage of 10V were $40mA/cm^2,\;10000cd/m^2$, and 25 cd/A, respectively. The maximum current efficiency was 40.5cd/A under the luminance of $160cd/m^2$. The peak wavelength and FWHM(full width at half maximum) in the electroluminescence spectral were 512nm and 60nm, respectively. The color coordinate was (0.28, 0.63) on the CIE (Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage) chart.

We fabricated white light-emitting organic electroluminescent device which have a mixed single emitting layer containing poly(N-vinylcarbazole)[PVK], tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum[Alq3] and poly(3-hexylthiophene)[P3HT] and investigated the emission properties of it. We expect to obtain a blue light from PVK, green light from Alq3 and red light from P3HT The fabricated device emits white light over 18V with slight orange light. We think that the energy transfer in a mixed layer occurred from PVK to $Alq_3$ and P3HT resulted in decreasing the blue light intensity from PVK. With mixing of N, N'-diphenyl-N, N'-(3-methylphenyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4, 4'-diamine[TPD], hole transport material, to the emitting layer, the luminance intensity of device was increased 50 times than that of the device which not contain TPD. We find that the efficiency of the white light electroluminescent device can be improved by injecting electron more effectively and blue light need to improve the color purity of white light.

Organic electroluminescent devices have attracted a great deal of attention due to thier potential application to full-color flat-panel displays. The 8-hydroxyquinollne Zinc(Znq$_2$) were synthesized successfully from zinc chloride(ZnCl$_2$) and zinc acetate(Zn(C$_2$H$_3$O$_3$)$_2$) as green omitting material. A double-layer ELD consist of an emitting layer of B-hydroxyquinoline Zinc(Znq$_2$) and a hole-transport layer of tai-phenylene diamine(TPD) derivatives sandwiched between an Aluminium(Al) and Indium-Tin-Oxide(ITO) electrodes omitted green light resulting from Znq$_2$. The electroluminescent devices (ELD) exhibited a maximum luminance of 1000cd/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at a driving voltage of 8V and a driving current density of 0.4mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$.
