Polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs) with ITO/EDOT:PSS/PVK/PFO-poss/LiF/Al structures were prepared by the spin coating method on ITO(indium tin oxide)/glass substrates. PFO-poss[Poly(9,9-dioctylfluorenyl-2,7-diyl) end capped with poss] was used as light emitting polymer. PVK[poly(N-vinyl carbazole)] and PEDOT:PSS [poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfolnate)] polymers were used as the hole injection and transport materials. The effect of PFO-poss concentration and the heating temperatures on the electrical and optical properties of the devices were investigated. At the same concentration of PFO-poss solution, the current density and luminance of PLED device tend to increase as the annealing temperature increase from $100^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$. The maximum luminance was found to be about 958 cd/m2 at 13V for the PLED device with 1.0 wt% PFO-poss at the annealing temperature of $200^{\circ}C$. In addition, the PLED device showed bluish white emission through the strong greenish peak with 523 nm in wavelength. As the concentration of PFO-poss increase from 0.5 wt% to 1.0 wt% and temperature of PLEDs increase from $100^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$, the emission color tend to be shifted from blue with (x, y) = (0.17,0.14) to bluish white with (x, y) : (0.29,0.41) in CIE color coordinate.

In this talk, I will introduce two topics. The first topic is the polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs) using graphene oxide quantum dots as emissive center. More specifically, the energy transfer mechanism as well as the origin of white electroluminescence in the PLED were investigated. The second topic is the facile synthesis of eco-friendly III-V colloidal quantum dots and their application to light emitting diodes. Polymer (organic) light emitting diodes (PLEDs) using quantum dots (QDs) as emissive materials have received much attention as promising components for next-generation displays. Despite their outstanding properties, toxic and hazardous nature of QDs is a serious impediment to their use in future eco-friendly opto-electronic device applications. Owing to the desires to develop new types of nanomaterial without health and environmental effects but with strong opto-electrical properties similar to QDs, graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have attracted great interest as promising luminophores. However, the origin of electroluminescence (EL) from GQDs incorporated PLEDs is unclear. Herein, we synthesized graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs) using a modified hydrothermal deoxidization method and characterized the PLED performance using GOQDs blended poly(N-vinyl carbazole) (PVK) as emissive layer. Simple device structure was used to reveal the origin of EL by excluding the contribution of and contamination from other layers. The energy transfer and interaction between the PVK host and GOQDs guest were investigated using steady-state PL, time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Experiments revealed that white EL emission from the PLED originated from the hybridized GOQD-PVK complex emission with the contributions from the individual GOQDs and PVK emissions. (Sci Rep., 5, 11032, 2015). New III-V colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) were synthesized using the hot-injection method and the QD-light emitting diodes (QLEDs) using these CQDs as emissive layer were demonstrated for the first time. The band gaps of the III-V CQDs were varied by varying the metal fraction and by particle size control. The X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) results show that the crystal states of the III-V CQDs consist of multi-phase states; multi-peak photoluminescence (PL) resulted from these multi-phase states. Inverted structured QLED shows green EL emission and a maximum luminance of ~45 cd/m2. This result shows that III-V CQDs can be a good substitute for conventional cadmium-containing CQDs in various opto-electronic applications, e.g., eco-friendly displays. (Un-published results).

White phosphorescence polymer light emitting diodes (WPhPLEDs) with a glass/ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PFO:$Ir(ppy)_3$:MDMO-PPV/TPBI/LiF/Al structure were fabricated to investigate the effects of $Ir(ppy)_3$ doping concentrations on the optical and electrical properties of the devices. PFO, $Ir(ppy)_3$ and MDMO-PPV conjugated polymers as host and guest materials in the emission layer were spin coated at various concentrations of $Ir(ppy)_3$ ranging from 0.0 to 20.0 vol.%. As the concentration of $Ir(ppy)_3$ increased from 5.0 to 20.0 vol.%, the luminance and current efficiency values of the devices decreased clearly, which are attributable to the quenching effect at a high doping concentration. The maximum luminance and current density were 2850 $cd/m^2$ and 741 $mA/cm^2$, respectively for a WPhPLED with an $Ir(ppy)_3$ concentration of 5.0 vol.%. The CIE color coordinates were about x=0.33 and y=0.34 at 11V, showing a good white color.

In this paper, white polymer light emitting diodes(WPLEDs) were fabricated and investigated the electrical and optical properties for the prepared devices. ITO(indium tin oxide) and PEDOT:PSS [poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfolnate)] as anode and hole injection materials, PFO [poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene)] and MEH-PPV [poly(2-methoxy-5(2-ethylhe xoxy)-1,4-phenylenevinyle)] were used as the light emitting host and guest materials, respectively. The LiF(lithium flouride) and Al(aluminum) were used electron injection materials and cathode materials. Finally, the WPLED with structure of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PFO:MEH-PPV/LiF/Al was fabricated. The prepared WPLED showed white emission with CIE coordinates of (x=0.36, y=0.35) at the applied voltage of 9V. The maximum current density and luminance were about $740mA/cm^2\;and\;900cd/m^2$ at 13V, respectively. And the maximum current efficiency was 0.37 cd/A at $200cd/m^2$ in luminance.

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.
