研究目的
Investigating the fabrication and optimization of polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs) with active layers processed from aqueous nanodispersion to eliminate the use of flammable and environmentally hazardous solvents.
研究成果
The study demonstrates the successful fabrication of PLEDs with active layers processed from aqueous nanodispersion, achieving performance on par with solution-cast devices. The optimized nanoparticle films exhibit low leakage current, low turn-on voltage, and no current hysteresis, confirming the compatibility of aqueous nano-dispersion technology with PLED manufacture.
研究不足
The study is limited to MEH-PPV:PS and SY-PPV:PS blends, and the performance of nanoparticle-based PLEDs is compared only to solution-cast reference devices. The influence of residual surfactant on device performance is not fully quantified.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves the preparation of aqueous nanodispersions of MEH-PPV:PS blends using the mini-emulsion method, followed by dialysis to reduce surfactant concentration. The films are cast onto PEDOT:PSS substrates with a multistep casting procedure involving plasma treatment for good wetting behavior.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
MEH-PPV and SY-PPV are used as polymeric emitters, blended with polystyrene to aid film formation. The dispersions are characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM).
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Includes Branson sonifier W450, Zetasizer Nano S90, ZEISS 1530 Gemini SEM, Bruker Dimension Icon FS AFM, and Keithley 2400 source unit for JV measurements.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The process involves emulsification, solvent evaporation, dialysis, centrifugation, and film casting with subsequent annealing. PLED devices are fabricated by applying Ba/Al cathodes onto the active layers.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Current density and luminance are measured as a function of applied voltage, with electroluminescence spectra recorded using an Ocean Optics USB2000 spectrometer.
