We have studied conduction mechanism that is interpreted in terms of space charge limited current (SCLC) region and tunneling region. The OLEDs are based on the molecular compounds, N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD) as a hole transport, tris (8- hydroxyquinolinoline) aluminum(III) $(Alq_3)$ as an electron injection and transport and emitting later, copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) and poly(vinylcarbazole) (PVK) as a buffer layer respectively. Al was used as cathode. We manufactured reference structure that has in ITO/TPD/$Alq_3$/Al. Buffer layer effects were compared to reference structure. And we have analyzed out luminance efficiency-voltage characteristics in ITO/Buffer layer/TPD/$Alq_3$/Al with buffer-layer materials.

A Polymer material, PU-BCN and a low molar mass material D-BCN with the same chromophore were evaluated by fabricating various electroluminescent(EL) devices. A molecular structure of the chromophore was composed as two cyano groups for electron-injection and transport and two triphenylamine groups for hole-injection and transport. Various kinds of EL devices with two different types of EL materials, PU-BCN and D-BCN were fabricated, which were an Indium-tin oxide(ITO)/PU-BCN or D-BCN/MgAg device as a single-layer device(SL) and an ITO/PU-BCN or D-BCN/oxadiazole ferivative/MgAg as a double-layer device(DL-E) and an ITO/triphenylamine derivative/D-BCN/MgAg as a double-layer device(DL-H) device. Two kinds of materials, PU-BCN and D-BCN showed the same emission characteristics in the high current density and excellent EL characteristics even in the SL devices. Maximum EL peaks revealed red emission of about 640 nm, which were corresponded with the fluorescence peaks of the films of two materials.

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using microcavity effect have attracted great attention because they can reduce the width of emission spectra from organic materials, and enhance brightness from the same material. We demonstrate the simulation results of the radiation properties from top-emitting organic light-emitting diodes (TE-OLEDs) with microcavity structures based on the general electromagnetic theory. Organic materials such as N,N'-di (naphthalene-1-yl)-N,N'-diphenylbenzidine (NPB) as a hole transport layer and tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) ($Alq_3$) as emitting and electron transporting layer are used to form the OLEDs. The organic materials were sandwiched between anode such as Ni or Au and cathode such as Al, Ag, or Al:Ag. The devices were characterized with electroluminescence phenomenon. We confirmed that the simulation results are consistent with experimental results.

The reorganization energy and the spectroscopic properties of 2,6-bis(5'-hexyl-thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-2'- yl)naphthalene (DH-TNT) and 2,6-bis(5'-hexyl-thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-2'-yl)anthracene (DH-TAT), which are composed of an acene unit and alkylated thienothiophene on both sides, as organic materials for display devices were calculated and the results were compared with experimental values. The lower reorganization energy of the DH-TAT over the DH-TNT calculated by the density functional theory is attributed to a smaller vibrational distortion because of the heavier building block of DH-TAT, and it shows a good field effect performance over the DH-TNT. The calculated spectra and the other spectroscopic characteristic of the compounds are well consistent with those of observed results.

Hydrogenated Amorphous Silicon (a-Si:H) is used as an emitter layer in HIT (heterojunction with Intrinsic Thin layer) solar cells. Its low band gap and low optical properties (low transmittance and high absorption) cause parasitic absorption on the front side of a solar cell that significantly reduces the solar cell blue response. To overcome this, research on CSC (carrier Selective Contacts) is being actively carried out to reduce carrier recombination and improve carrier transportation as a means to approach the theoretical efficiency of silicon solar cells. Among CSC materials, molybdenum oxide ($MoO_x$) is most commonly used for the hole transport layer (HTL) of a solar cell due to its high work function and wide band gap. This paper analyzes the electrical and optical properties of $MoO_x$ thin films for use in the HTL of HIT solar cells. The optical properties of $MoO_x$ show better performance than a-Si:H and ${\mu}c-SiO_x:H$.

The electrical properties of stabilized amorphous selenium typical of the material used in direct conversion x-ray imaging devices are reported. Carrier mobility was measured using time-of-flight (TOF) measurements to investigate the transport properties of holes and electrons in stabilized a-Se film. A laser beam with pulse duration of 5 ns and wavelength of 350nm was illuminated on the surface of a-Se with thickness of 400 $\mu\textrm{m}$. The photo induced signals of a-Se film as a function of time were measured. The measured transit times of hole and electron were about 8.73${\mu}\textrm{s}$ and 229.17${\mu}\textrm{s}$, respectively. The hole and electron drift mobilities decreases with increase of electric field up to 4V/$\mu\textrm{m}$. Above 4V/$\mu\textrm{m}$, the measured drift mobilities exhibited no observable dependence with respect to electric field. The experimental results showed that the hole and electron drifting mobility were 0.04584 $\textrm{cm}^2$ V$\^$-1/s$\^$-1/ sand 0.00174 $\textrm{cm}^2$V$\^$-1/s$\^$-1/ at 10 V/$\mu\textrm{m}$.

Organic light emitting devices from a single layer thin film with a hole transport polymer, poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) doped with 2-(4-bi phenyl)-5-(4-t-butyl-phenyl) -1,3,4-oxadiazole (Bu-PBD) as electron transporting molecules and Coumurine 6(C6), 1,1,4,4-tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene (TPB), Rhodamine B as a emitter dye were fabricated. The sing1e layer structure and the use of soluble materials simplify the fabrication of devices by spin coating technique. The active layer consists of one polymer layer that is simply sandwiched between two electrodes, indium-tin oxide (ITO), and aluminum. In this structure, electron and hole inject from the electrodes to the PVK : Bu-PBD active layer. Respectively, Blue, green and orange colored emission spectrum by the use of TPB, C6, Rhodamine B dye emitted at 481nm, 500nm and 585nm were achieved during applied voltages. PVK materials can be useful as the host polymer to be molecularly doped with other organic dyes of the different luminescence colors. And EL color can be tuned to the full visible wavelength.

The process of charge transfer at the interface between two semiconductors or between a metal and a semiconductor plays an important role in many areas of technology. The optimization of such devices requires a good theoretical description of the interfaces involved. This, in turn, has motivated detailed mechanistic studies of interfacial charge-transfer reactions at metal/organic, organic/organic, and organic/inorganic semiconductor heterojunctions. Charge recombination of photo-induced electron with redox species such as oxidized dyes or triiodide or cationic HTM (hole transporting materials) at the heterogeneous interface of $TiO_2$ is one of main loss factors in liquid junction DSSCs or solid-state DSSCs, respectively. Among the attempts to prevent recombination reactions such as insulating thin layer and lithium ions-doped hole transport materials and introduction of co-adsorbents, although co-adsorbents retard the recombination reactions as hydrophobic energy barriers, little attention has been focused on the anchoring processes. Molecular engineering of heterogeneous interfaces by employing several co-adsorbents with different properties altered the surface properties of $TiO_2$ electrodes, resulting to the improved power conversion efficiency and long-term stability of the DSSCs. In this talk, advantages of the coadsorbent-assisted sensitization of N719 in preparation of DSSCs will be discussed.

In this study, we fabricated white organic light emitting devices (WOLEDs) to use single emission layer, DPVBi with partially doped Rubrene. To realize white color, rubrene with 3.6% was partially doped with the gap from interface between DPVBi and hole transport layer NPD in a definite DPVBi layer. As the gap was increased, the intensity of orange peak grows less and less. The WOLED with gap of $5\;{\AA}$ has the best color stability and its color coordination is (0.345, 0.321) at 6V.
