제목 | Exciton dynamics of pi-conjugated polymers for optoelectronic applications |
초록 | While the phenomenon of electroluminescence (EL) from organic, polymeric or small molecular light emitting diodes (LEDs) is qualitatively understood, a quantitative assessment of the microscopic processes is still sparse. One of these is the kinetics of the pathways by which the generated or injected excitations decay to the ground state. In a defect-free molecular system with balanced injection, sufficient to maintain a stationary concentration of both electrons and holes, the EL efficiency can be determined by the fraction of singlet excitations, or in the case of a phosphorescent emitter triplet excitations. Though, in a real world system there are inadvertently chemical and physical defects which can be populated by energy or charge transfer and which often catalyze non-radiative decay. In an LED, one would like to either eliminate these processes or exploit them via intelligent material design. Therefore, it is obvious that improving the performance of organic LEDs requires a quantitative understanding of the kinetic processes involved in order to avoid such a possible non-radiative decay. Since the elementary process of energy and charge transfer among nearest and non-nearest neighbour chromophores occurs on a time scale of typically < 1 ps to several nanoseconds, fast fluorescence spectroscopy is the method of choice to characterize a given LED material. By comparing the spectroscopic behavior of various samples prepared by different ways, for instance, via varying of doping rate, one is able to delineate energy transfer to quantify the effect of those defects and extrapolate to the behavior of an ideal system.
