Organic electronic devices (OLED)

Thien-Phap NGUYEN

Organic light emitting diodes (LEDs) now appear as a promising application of conjugated polymers. Indeed, the use of polymers or organic materials as active layer in the LEDs makes it possible to obtain specific properties inaccessible to inorganic LEDs: low mass, flexibility, large active area, high luminosity.

We realize the light-emitting diodes based on polymer and organic material and study the different physico-chemical phenomena involved in the operation of LEDs: characterization of active materials, conduction mechanisms in devices, role of interfaces in charge injections , Structure of these interfaces, and degradation phenomena. Based on the knowledge gained from these studies, we design strategies for improving the performance of diodes and apply them to the study of devices using new materials and new structures. On the one hand, a better understanding of the functioning of the diodes has been gained by the appropriate characterization methods (trapping, conduction, degradation.) On the other hand, improvements in the performance of the devices have been achieved. Characterization and electrical analysis of organic semiconductors to model the conduction and transport processes in the studied electronic devices.

 

Th1 10 F2

We demonstrate that the inverted structure (emission by the upper electrode) presents the same phenomena and disadvantages as the conventional structures. 
 

Th1 10 F1

We demonstrate also that the use of indium tin oxide films as an anode in the devices poses stability problems due to the decomposition of this oxide upon contact with the polymeric films.A reaction between the materials forms complexes at the interface, facilitating the diffusion of the metal atoms in the active film which deteriorate the transport and emission quality of the devices.

Light-emitting diode based on polyacetylene derivative 

In various organic devices, the determination of defects by thermally stimulated current (CTS) and deep trap spectroscopy (DLTS) techniques made it possible to establish the pattern of the energy bands of the structures, with detailed data on the parameters of Traps. However, no indication of their nature could be obtained, and for this identification we are preparing other experiments at this time.
