유기발광다이오드(Organic Light-Emitting Diodes, OLEDs)의 효율을 향상시키기 위하여 다양한 아세트산금속(Macetate, M: Li, Na, K, Cs)을 cathode underlayer 소재로 사용하고 이들이 소자의 전자주입 및 발광 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. 1 nm 두께의 M-acetate 층을 cathode underlayer로 사용한 경우 Cs-acetate를 사용한 소자를 제외한 모든 소자에서 기존의 LiF 전자주입층을 사용한 소자보다 효율적인 전자주입 및 향상된 발광특성을 보였으며, M-acetate에 포함된 금속의 일함수가 작을수록 높은 전류밀도와 우수한 발광특성을 보였다. 또한, cathode underlayer의 두께가 소자의 특성에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과, 사용된 M-acetate의 분자크기에 따라 각기 다른 두께(Li-acetate 0.7 nm, Cs-acetate 2.0 nm)에서 최적의 발광특성을 보였으며 기존의 LiF 층을 사용한 소자에 비하여 동일 인가전압에서 전류효율이 약 60% 향상된 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

The organic light emitting diode (OLED) is proposed as the novel source in the microchip because it has ideal merits (various wavelengths, thin-film structure and overall emitting) for the integration. In this paper, we fabricated the finger-type pin photodiodes for fluorescence detection and the advanced microchip with OLED integrated pn the microchannel. The finger-type in the diode design extended the depletion region and reduced the internal resistance about 31.2% than rectangular-type. The photodiodes had a 100pA leakage current and a 8720 sensitivity $(I_{Light}/I_{Dark})$ at -1 V bias. The interference filter with 32 layers ($SiO_2$, $TiO_2$) was directly deposited on the photodiode. The OLED was fabricated on the ITO coated glass and was bonded with LOC. The application of thin-film OLED increased the excitation efficiency and simplified the integration process extremely. The prototype device of this application had a superior sensitivity of 100nM-LOD in the fluorescence detection.

Clothing has a very important role in human life, and it is the most human-friendly platform because humans wear it in almost all the time. In the recent years, smart clothing integrated with various functions is solidifying its position as the core of next-generation Information and Communications Technology(ICT). With this global trend, the smart textiles, textiles embedded with electronic devices that are capable of performing various functions, have been attracting a lot of attention. Therefore, various research activities on the smart textiles are in progress, and the global market outlook for the smart textiles is also showing rapid growth. Among the various smart textile technologies, the textile/fiber-based wearable display has been attracting more attention because it is an essential element for wearers to intuitively control the functions integrated in the smart textiles. This paper provides insightful information and the technological elements of organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs) display, which have been evaluated as the most ideal device for luminescent clothing. Since, OLEDs have many advantages such as light weight, extremely thin thickness and great flexibility, the textile/fiber-based wearable OLEDs can be worn without any inconvenience. In addition, by introducing previous studies on the textile/fiber-based OLED displays, we intend to consider the commercial potential of the textile/fiber-based smart luminescent clothing using the OLED technologies.

We fabricated white organic light emitting device (WOLED) with the layered fluorescent blue material and phosphorescent green/red dye-doped materials. Addition of the non-doped phosphorescent host material between the fluorescent and phosphorescent light emitting layers provided the result of broadband white spectrum, with improved balance, higher efficiency, and lower power consumption. In our devices, there was no need of exciton-blocking layer between the each emission layer for the further confinement of the diffusion of excitons.

In order to study current-voltage-luminance and impedance characteristics according to elapsed time, a blue fluorescent OLED was fabricated. The current density and luminance gradually decreased in accordance with elapsed time and did not emit light after 480 hours, and the threshold voltage increased as time elapsed. The Cole-Cole plot was a semicircular shape of a very large size at 2 V of the applied voltage below the threshold voltage, and the maximum value of the real number impedance did not change greatly from 9314.5 to $9902.2{\Omega}$ as time elapsed. Applied voltages 4, 6, and 8 V above the threshold voltage showed a large change in the real number impedance value at the semicircle end to 9,678.2, 9,826, $9,535.4{\Omega}$ according to the elapsed time from 2,222.5, 183.7, $48.2{\Omega}$ immediately after fabricating the device. By increasing the applied voltage beyond the threshold voltage just after device fabrication, the energy difference between the device and the organic layer was overcome and the current flowed, the maximum value of the real number impedance sharply decreased. As time passed, current did not flow through the element even at high applied voltage due to degradation of the element, and even when the applied voltage was higher than the threshold voltage, it showed an impedance value such as applied voltage equal to or less than the threshold voltage. As a result, it can be learned that the change in the impedance with elapsed time reflects the characteristics due to the degradation of the OLED and can predict the characteristics and lifetime of the OLED.

In this study, hetero-electrode structures have been fabricated to increase luminescence efficiency. The presence of a thin layer of Sn or Ag at the organic-aluminum interface enhanced both electron injection efficiency and electroluminescence when compared to OLEDs using homogeneous electrode. In this paper, the effect of the cathode using Sn/Al hetero electrode structure is observed. Electric properties of the OLED using Sn/Al hetero cathode are improved in comparison of only Al cathode. The hetero-electrode existing different energy level induces the advanced structure of OLED can accumulate electron density. The luminescence efficiency of OLED with Sn/Al of Ag/Al cathode is higher because of their higher electron injection efficiency. And, the turn on voltage of the OLED device using Sn thin layer is lowest as about 10 V.

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/$cm^2$.

In this study, we analyzed the electric and optical characteristics by using various deposition rate ($0.5{\AA}$, $1.0{\AA}$ and $1.5{\AA}/s$) in order to enhance the performance in organic light-emitting devices (OLED). The organic multi-layer structures were deposited with NPB ($500{\AA}$ as hole transport layer), Alq3 ($600{\AA}$ as electron transport layer and emission layer) and LiF ($8{\AA}$ as electron injection layer) via SUNIC PLUS200 on Glass/ITO substrates. In this experiment, we examined the relationship between porous state of organic deposition and mobility of the organic materials. Among the three deposition rates, $0.5{\AA}/s$ achieved the highest performance of (10,786cd/m2, 4.387cd/A) comparing with that of $1{\AA}/s$ (7,779cd/m2, 3.281cd/A) and $1.5{\AA}/s$ (5,167cd/m2, 2.693cd/A). We confirmed that low deposition rate helps to arrange organic materials densely and to move easily another atomic location using inter-chain transporting by orbital overlap.

Doping is a well-known method for improving electroluminescent (EL) efficiency of organic light emitting diodes. In our study, doping with 2 materials simultaneously, we could achieve improved EL efficiency. The emission layer was tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum, and the 2 dopants were N,N'-dimethyl-quinacridone (DMQA) and 10-(2-Benzothiazolyl)-2, 3, 6, 7-tetrahydro-1,1,7,7,-tetramethyl 1-1H, 5H, 11H-[1] benzopyrano [6,7,8-ij]quinolizin-11-one (C-545T). The EL intensity of co-doped device was nearly flat, it shows that co-doping technique could be a effective way to improve the EL efficiency. EL efficiency of Single-doped device based on DMQA and C-S45T were ~6.47Cd/A and ~7.45Cd/A, respectively. Co-doped device showed higher EL efficiency of ~8.30Cd/A.

OLED 소자를 용액공정으로 제작함에 있어 음극 전극의 용액공정화가 기술적인 난제이므로 별도의 기판에 음극 전극을 형성하고 PEI 층을 접합층으로 사용하여 이를 다른 기판의 소자와 물리적, 전기적으로 연결하는 연구를 진행하였다. PEI 용액의 농도, PEI 층의 두께 및 첨가제 혼합 등을 변수로 하였으며 접착력 측정기와 EOD 소자 제작을 통하여 특성을 확인한 결과는 다음과 같다. PEI 용액의 농도가 높을수록 접착강도가 증가하였으나 막 두께의 증가로 전류 밀도가 감소하였다. 0.1 wt% PEI 용액에 첨가제로서 조비톨과 PEG를 혼합한 결과 PEG를 0.5 wt%의 농도로 혼합한 조건에서 900 mA/cm² 의 최대 전류 밀도를 얻었으며 양호한 접착 상태와 소자의 점등도 확인되었다.
