Novel electroluminescent materials, polymer material, PU-BCN and low molar mass material, D-BCN with the same chromophores were designed and synthesized. A molecular structure of chromophore was composed of bisstyrylbenzene derivative with cyano groups as electron injection and transport and phenylamine groups as hole injection and transport. Device structures with PU-BCN and D-BCN as an emission layer were fa-bricated, which were a single-layer device(SL), Indium-tin oxide(ITO)/emission layer/MgAg, and two kinds of double-layer devices which were composed of ITO/emission layer/oxadiazole derivative/MgAg as a DL-E device and ITO/triphenylamine derivative/emission layer/MgAg as a DL-H device. The two emission materials, PU-BCN and D-BCN with the same emission-chromophore were evaluated as having excellent performance of charge injection and transport and revealed almost the same emission characteristics in high current density. EL emission maximum peaks of two material were detected at about 640 nm wavelength of red emission region.

Electroluminescent(EL) devices based on organic materials have been of great interest due to their possible applications for large-area flat-panel displays, where they are attractive because of their capability of multicolor emission, and low operation voltage. In this study, glass substrate/ITO/Eu(TTA)$_3$(Phen)/Al(A), glass substrate/ITO/TPD/Eu(TTA)$_3$(p-hen)/Al(B) and glass substrate/ITO/TPD/Eu(TTA)$_3$(phen)/AlQ$_3$/Al(C) structures were fabricated by vacuum evaporation method. where aromatic diamine(TPD) was used as a hole transporting material, Eu(TTA)$_3$(phen) as an emitting material. and tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)Aluminum(AlQ$_3$) as an electron transporting layer. Electroluminescent(EL) and I-V characteristics of Eu(TTA)$_3$(Phen) with a various thickness were investigated. This structure shows the red EL spectrum, which is almost the same as the PL spectrum of Eu(TTA)$_3$(phen). I-V characteristics of this structure show that turn-on voltage was 9V and current density was 0.01A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at a dc operation voltage of 9V. Electrical transporting phenomena of these structures was explained using the trapped- charge-limited current model with I-V characteristics.

Electroluminescent(EL) devices based on organic thin films have attracted lots of interests in large-area light-emitting display. One of the problems of such device is a lifetime, where a degradation of the cell is possibly due to an organic layer's thickness, morphology and interface with electrode. In this study, light-emitting organic electroluminescent devices were fabricated using Alq$_3$(8-hydroxyquinolinate aluminum) and TPD(N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-[1-1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine).Where Alq$_3$ is an electron-transport and emissive layer, TPD is a hole-transport layer. The cell structure is ITO/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al and the cell is fabricated by vacuum evaporation method. In a measurement of current-voltage characteristics, we obtained a turn-on voltage at about 9 V. And we used other buffer layer of PPy(Polypyrrole) with ITO/PPy/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al structure. We observed a surface morphology by AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy), UV/visible absorption spectrum, and PL(Photoluminescence) spectrum. We obtained the UV/visible absorption peak at 358nm in TPD and at 359nm in Alq$_3$, and at 225nm and the PL peaks at 410nm in TPD and at 510nm in Alq$_3$ and at 350nm. We also studied EL spectrum in the cell structure of ITO/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al and ITO/PPy/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al and we observed the EL spectrum peak at 510nm from our cell

Electroluminescent(EL) devices based on organic materials have been of great interest due to their possible applications for large-area flat-panel displays. They are attractive because of their capability of multicolor emission, and low operation voltage. In this study, glass substrate/ITO/TPD/$Eu(TTA)_3(phen)/Alq_3/Al$ structures were fabricated by evaporation method, where aromatic diamine(TPD) were used as a hole transporting material, $Eu(TTA)_3(phen)$ as an emitting material, and tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)Aluminum ($Alq_3$) as an electron transporting layer. Electroluminescent(EL) and I-V characteristics of $Eu(TTA)_3(phen)$ with a variety thickness was investigated. This structure shows the red EL spectrum, which is almost the same as the PL spectrum of $Eu(TTA)_3(phen)$. I-V characteristics of this structure show that turn-on voltage was 9V and current density of $0.01A/cm^2$ at a dc drive voltage of 9V. Details on the explanation of electrical transport phenomena of these structures with I-V characteristics using the trapped-charge-limited current model will be discussed.

White-light-emitting ZnS:Mn, Cu, Cl phosphors with spherical shape and the size of $20\;{\mu}m$ are successfully synthesized. They have the double phases of cubic and hexagonal structures. They are applied to electroluminescent (EL) devices by silk screen method with the following structure: $electrode/BaTiO_3$ insulator layer ($50{\sim}60\;{\mu}m$)/ ZnS:Mn, Cu, Cl phosphor layer ($30{\sim}50\;{\mu}m$)/ITO glass. The EL devices are driven with the voltage of 100 V and the frequency of 400 Hz. The EL devices show the three emission peaks. The blue and green emission bands are originated from $CICu^{2+}$ transition and $ClCu^+$ transition, respectively. The yellow emission band results from $^4T^6A$ transition of $Mn^{2+}$ ion. As an increase of Cu concentrations, the blue and green emission intensities decrease whereas the yellow emission intensity increases; the quality becomes warm white. It is due to the energy transfer from the blue and green bands to the yellow band.

New electroluminescent polymers with fluoro groups in vinylene units, poly(m-silylphenyl-p-phenylene-difluorovinylene) (m-SiP-PPDFV) have been synthesized by GILCH polymerization. These polymers have been used as the electroluminescent (EL) layers in single layer light-emitting diodes (LEDs) (ITO/PEDOT/polymer/Ca:Al). m-SiP-PPDFV shows PL around $\lambda_{max}$ = 452 nm and green EL around $\lambda_{max}$ = 497 nm. The current-voltage-luminance (I-V-L) characteristics of the polymers show turn-on voltages of 4.0 V approximately. Two fluoro groups were introduced on every vinylene units of m-SiP-PPV to give m-SiP-PPDFV in an attempt to increase the electron affinity of the parent polymer, and the devices show an increased color stability even with vinylene units. The color stability is attributed to the electron-withdrawing effect of the fluoro groups, which protect vinylene units from oxidation in PPV derivatives. We believe that fluoro groups can be introduced in vinylene units in order to attain excellent stability of PPV derivatives.

ZnS:Cu phosphor used on powder electroluminescent device has a green emission in low frequency and a blue emission in high frequency. In this paper, to obtain the powder electroluminescent device of the blue emission in low frequency, the emission properties with mixed the ratio between phosphor and dye was investigated. The mixed ratio of the dye was from 0 to 5 weight percent. To inquire into the blue emission, the emission spectrum, the CIE coordinate system and the brightness were measured.

White emission is important for applying organic EL devices to full-color flat panel display and backlight for liquid crystal display. In order to obtain white emission, the use of a light-emitting material which shows the white emission by itself is advantageous for these applications because of its high reliability and productivity. A chelate-metal complex such as zinc bis(2-(2-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazolate) ($Zn(BTZ)_{2}$ was known to emit white light with a broad electroluminescence. In this study, the electroluminescent characteristics of $Be(BTZ)_{2}$ and $Mg(BTZ)_{2}$, as well as $Zn(BTS)_2$ were investigated using organic electroluminescent devices with the structure of ITO/TPD/ $Be(BTZ)_{2}$, $Mg(BTZ)_{2}$, or $Zn(BTZ)_{2}/Al$. It was found that the device containing $Be(BTZ)_{2}$ showed the highest power efficiency.
