A new green-emitting material with donor-acceptor architecture, 3,7-bis(1'-phenylbenzimidazole-2'-yl)-10-phenylphenothiazine (BBPP) was synthesized and its thermal, optical, and electroluminescent characteristics were investigated. Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with four different multilayer structures were prepared using BBPP as an emitting layer. The optimized device with the structure of [ITO/2-TNATA (40 nm)/BBPP (30 nm)/TPBi (30 nm)/Alq3 (10 nm)/LiF (1 nm)/Al (100 nm)] exhibited efficient green emission. Enhanced charge carrier balance and electron mobility in the organic layers enabled the device to demonstrate a maximum luminance of 31,300 cd/$m^2$, a luminous efficiency of 6.83 cd/A, and an external quantum efficiency of 1.62% with the CIE 1931 chromaticity coordinates of (0.21, 0.53) at a current density of 100 mA/$cm^2$.

$Eu^{3+}$-activated $R_3GaO_6$ (R = Y, Gd) phosphors were prepared in a conventional solid-state reaction and their optical properties were investigated. These compounds exhibit strong red emission under light excitation at 254 nm. The emission spectra are dominated by peaks appearing around 610-630 nm that are induced by the electric dipole transition of $^5D_0\;{\rightarrow}\;^7F_2$ of $Eu^{3+}$. In addition, the appropriate CIE (Commission Internationale de l'clairage) chromaticity coordinates, (x = 0.656, y = 0.336) for $Y_3GaO_6$ and (x = 0.655, y = 0.334) for $Gd_3GaO_6$, become closer to the NTSC (National Television System Committee) standard values. With the optimized activator concentrations, the maximum emission brightness is approximately 80% of $Y_2O_3$:$Eu^{3+}$ typical red-emitting phosphor with improved color purity under an excitation condition of 254 nm.

White polymeric light-emitting devices (WPLEDs) have been fabricated from polyfluorene-based (PFO) blue and MEH-PPV polymer blending systems. A device structure of ITO / PEDOT:PSS / Blending polymer / Blue polymer / LiF / Al was employed. This structure of double emission layers showed significant improvement of white color shift phenomenon. A current efficiency of 4.67 cd/A (3,900 $cd/m^{2}$, 6.4 V) and a brightness value of 17,600 $cd/m^{2}$ at 9.4 V with (0.34, 0.35) CIE coordinates at 5 V and (0.29, 0.29) at 9 V were achieved achieved.

We have synthesized new blue light emitting random copolymers, poly(9,9'-n-dioctylfluorene-co-perfluorobenzene-1,4-diyl)s (PFFBs), via Ni(0)-mediated coupling reactions. The weight-average molecular weights ($M_w$) of the PFFB copolymers ranged from 9,000 to 15,000. The PFFB copolymers dissolved in common organic solvents such as THF and toluene. The PL emission peaks of the PFFB copolymers were at around 420, 440, and 470 nm. EL devices were fabricated in ITO/PEDOT/polymer/Ca/Al configurations using these polymers. These EL devices were found to exhibit pure blue emission with approximate CIE coordinates of (0.15, 0.11) at $100cd/m^2$. The blue emissions of these devices might be due to the restriction of the polymer chains to aggregation by introducing of the highly electronegative fluorine moieties. The maximum brightnesses of the PFFB copolymer devices ranged from 140 to $3600cd/m^2$ with maximum efficiencies from 0.2 to 0.6 cd/A. The enhanced efficiency of the PFFB (8/2) copolymer device results from the inhibition of excimer formation by the introduction of the electronegative fluorine moieties into the copolymers.

Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) show a lot of advantages for display purposes. Because OLEDs provide white light emission with a high efficiency and stability, it is desirable to apply OLEDs as an illumination light source and back light in LCD displays. We synthesized new emissive materials, namely $Zn(HPB)_2$ and Zn(HPB)q, which have a low molecular compound and thermal stability. We studied white OLEDs using $Zn(HPB)_2$ and Zn(HPB)q. The fundamental structures of the white OLEDs were ITO / NPB (40 nm) / $Zn(HPB)_2$ (40 nm) / Zn(HPB)q (20 nm) / LiAl (120nm). As a result, we obtained a maximum luminance of $15325cd/m^2$ at a current density of $997\;mA/cm^2$. The CIE (Commission International de l'Eclairage) coordinates are (0.28, 0.35) at an applied voltage of 9.75 V.

We has been synthesized $(POB)_{2}Ir(pic)$ as a red emitting materials and evaluated in the organic light emitting diodes (OLED). The layer of $Alq_3$ doped with $(POB)_{2}Ir(pic)$ as emitters has been demonstrated. The structure of the device is ITO/ NPB (40 nm) / $Zn(HPB)_2$ (40 nm)/ $Alq_3$ : $(POB)_{2}Ir(pic)$ (30 nm) / LiF / Al. We varied the doped rate of $(POB)_{2}Ir(pic)$. The doped rate is 0.4 %, 0.6%, 0.8 and 1.2%, respectively. When the doped rate of the $Alq_3$:$ Ir(POB)_{2}(pic)$ was 0.6%, white emission is achieved. The Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of the white emission are (0.316, 0.331) at an applied voltage of 10.75V.

Because OLEDs provide white light emission with a high efficiency and stability, it is desirable to apply OLEDs as an illumination light source and back light in LCD displays. We synthesized new emissive materials, namely [2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole] ($Zn(HPB)_2$) and [(2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole)(8-hydoxyquinoline)] (Zn(HPB)q), which have a low molecular compound and thermal stability.

Hyperbranched conjugated polymers (p-HPPV and m-HPPV) with para and meta linkages were synthesized from $A_2$ and $B_4$ type monomers through Wittig polycondensation. The synthesized p-HPPV and m-HPPV were completely soluble in common organic solvents such as chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dichloroethane, etc. and thermal gravimetric analyses showed that p-HPPV and m-HPPV are stable up to $350^{\circ}C$. The molecular weights (from GPC), UV-visible, and photoluminescence maximum peaks of p-HPPV and m-HPPV are characterized in detail. The fabricated EL devices using the synthesized hyperbranched polymers, (ITO/(p-HPPV or m-HPPV)/Al), showed EL emission at about 507 nm and 481 nm (681 nm), respectively. Especially, EL device from m-HPPV were found to exhibit nearly white emission with approximate CIE coordinates of (0.31, 0.34) compared with (0.310, 0.316) of NTSC white color at $100\;cd/m^2$. The good photophysical properties combine with good film-form ability could make these hyperbranched polymers to be a potential candidate for the EL materials.

Y₂O₃:Eu_x (x = 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.05, 0.1 mol) phosphors are synthesized with different concentrations of Eu³⁺ ions by solvothermal method. The crystal structure, surface and optical properties of the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphors are investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) analyses. From X-ray diffraction (XRD) results, the crystal structure of the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphor is found to be cubic. The maximum emission spectra of the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphors are observed at 0.05 mol Eu³⁺ concentration. The photoluminescence of 615 nm in the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphors is associated with ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂ transition of Eu³⁺ ions. The decrease in emission intensity of 0.1 mol Eu doped Y₂O₃ is interpreted by concentration quenching. The International Commission on Illumination (CIE) coordinates of 0.05 mol Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphor are X = 0.6547, Y = 0.3374.
