Conjugated polymers have attracted much scientific and technological research interest during the past few decades because of their potential use such as polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs).1,2 Particularly, lots of phenylene-based polymers such as polyfluorene and its derivatives have been synthesized because of their high photoluminescence quantum efficiencies and thermal stabilities. However, troublesome long wavelength emission in polymer film of polyfluorenes on heating during device formation or operation has been the crucial problem for practical applications. The source of the long wavelength emission was initially believed to be solely due to excimer emission as a result of polymer aggregation. It has also recently been correlated with emissions from ketonic defects in the fluorene units. Many efforts have been made to reduce the tendency to red-shifted emission. Here, we report for the first time the design and synthesis of novel 9,9-spiro bifluornene-based polymers containing heteroatoms such as N, S in its molecular skeleton. Especially, the 9,9-spiro bifluornene-based polymers containing N atom showed stable blue electroluminescence, which did not show spectral change upon thermal annealing.

We report the spectroscopic properties of column-III nitrifies of GaN, GaInN, and AlGaN. The column-III nitride semiconductors are promising materials to realize the current-injection-type blue-and ultraviolet (UV)-light-emitting devices with high performance. To acheive the lasing with low threshold, the devices are must constructed to double heterostructure by succesive epitaxial growth technique, and we must confine the carriers in the potential barrier and optical confinement in wave guide between barrier and active layers has different refractive index. The refractive index of column-III nitride semiconductors, however, are rarely reported. The measured refractive index was 2.9, and the observed characteristic peak near the enrgy gap was analysed using a dielectric function and may due to excitonic contribution.

The sapphire wafers for blue light emitting devices were manufactured by the implementation of the surface machining technology based on micro-tribology. This process has been performed by chemical and mechanical polishing(CMP) process. The sapphire crystalline wafers were characterized by double crystal X-ray diffraction. The sample quality of sapphire crystalline wafer at surfaces has a full width at half maximum 89 arcses. The surfaces of sapphire wafers were mechanically affected by residual stress and surface default. Sapphire wafers's waveness has higher abrasion rate in the edge of the wafer than its center due to Newton's Ring interference.

Electroluminescence(EL)devices based on organic thin layers have attracted lot of interests because of their possible application as large-area light-emitting display. One of the problems of such devices is lifetime of the cell, where the degradation of the cell is partially due to the crystalliyzation of organic layers. In large part, this problem can be solved by using a multilayer device structure prepared by vapor deposition technique. In this study, blue lightemitting multilayer organic electroluminescence devices were fabricated using Poly (9-vinyl-carbazole) (PVK) and 2-(4'-tert-butylpheny])-5-(4"-bis-phenyl)1,3,4-oxadiazole (PBD) as hole trasport and electron transport material, respectively, where tris(8-hydroxyquinolinate) aluminum (Alq3) was used as a luminescenct material. A cell structure of glass substrate/indume-tin-oxide(ITO)/PVK/$Alq_3$/PBD/Mg:In was employed.

Electroluminescent(EL) dcvice based on organic thin layers have attracted lots of interests because of thier possible application as large-area light-emitting displays. It was known that MEH-PPV and 1, 1, 4, 4, -Tetraphenyl-1, 3-butadiene(TPB) has red and blue emission peak at 580nm and 480nm, respectively. In this study, MEH-PPV films and TPB films were prepared by spin coating and vacuum deposition method, respectively. Films of MEH-PPV and TPB double layer were also prepared by the same method. Photoluminescent(PL) characteristics of these single and doubler layers were investigated, where a cell structure of glass substrate/ITO/MEH-PPV and/or TPB/Al was employed. It was found that the photoluminescent efficiency of TPB film was higher than that of MEH-PPV film with a single layer and also with a double structure. These films have also different I-V characteristics.

We fabricated red and blue organic light emitting display (OLEDs) which had the two kinds of multi-structure of ITO/HIL/HTL/EML/ETL/LiF/Al and ITO/HIL/HTL/EML/ETL/LiF/Al/LiF. In the case of red OLED that had LiF/Al/LiF structure compared to LiF/Al structure, the current density increased from 4.3 mA/$cm^2$ to 7.3 mA/$cm^2$, and the brightness increased from 488 cd/$m^2$ to 1,023 cd/$m^2$ at 7.0 V, and as a result the current efficiency was improved from 11.28 cd/A to 13.95 cd/A. Also in the case of blue OLED that had LiF on Al cathode layer, the current density increased from 1.2 mA/$cm^2$ to 1.8 mA/$cm^2$, and the brightness increased from 45 cd/$m^2$ to 85 cd/$m^2$ at 7.0 V, and as a result the current efficiency was improved from 3.69 cd/A to 4.82 cd/A. Through these experimental results it could be suggested that the LiF layer formed on Al prevents the oxidation of Al surface, and the electrode resistance become low with increase of supplied electrons, therefore the brightness and the efficiency are improved from the influence to the well-balanced bonding of electron and hole at emitting layer.

To supply a stable amount of standard material to detect paralytic shellfish toxin (PST), we examined possible increases in toxic content in Alexandrium catenella and A. pacificum using a light emitting diode (LED), which is one of the most eco-friendly and economical lighting method. When comparing the growth rates of organisms and wavelengths of light used, the half saturation constants (Ks) of red wavelength were higher than those of other wavelengths. In contrast, the Ks of blue wavelength were lower than those of other wavelengths. Moreover, when comparing the toxic contents and wavelengths of light used, red wavelength produced approximately 8 times more toxic content in A. catenella and approximately 3.2 times more toxic content in A. pacificum than other wavelengths. Thus, the toxic content present in the organism might be closely related to the Ks of light. The optimum light source to be used to ensure economically ef ective and productive growth in an Alexandrium culture system (photo-bioreactor) would likely consist of a two-phase culture, wherein a blue LED is used during the lag and exponential phases to increase growth rates, followed by the use of a red LED during late exponential and stationary phases to achieve increased PST yields.

In order to investigate the emission characteristics of the phosphorescent white organic light-emitting diodes (PHWOLEDs) according to various hole transport layers (HTLs), PHWOLEDs composed of HTLs whose structure are NPB/TCTA, NPB/mCP and NPB/TCTA/mCP, two emissive layers (EMLs) which emit two-wavelengths of light (blue and red), and electron transport layer were fabricated. The applied voltage, power efficiency, and external quantum efficiency at a current density of $1 mA/cm^2$ for the fabricated PHWOLEDs were 7.5 V, 11.5 lm/W, and 15%, in case of NPB/mCP, 5 V, 14.8 lm/W, and 13.7%, in case of NPB/TCTA, and 5.5 V, 14.6 lm/W, and 15%, in case of NPB/TCTA/mCP in the hole transport layer, respectively. High emission efficiency can be obtained when the amount of hole injection from anode is balanced out by the amount of electron injection from the cathode to EML by using NPB/TCTA/mCP structured HTL.

Organic electroluminescence devices were made from 1,4-bis-(9-anthrylvinyl)benzene (AVB) and 1,4-bis-(9-aminoanthryl)benzene (AAB) anthracene derivatives. Device structure was ITO/AVB/PANI(EB)/Al (multi-layer device) and ITO/AAB:DCM/Al(single-layer device). In these devices, AVB, polyaniline(emeraldine base) (PANI(EB)) and AAB were used as the emitting material. 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-p-(dimethylamino)styryl-4H -pyran(DCM) was used as red fluorescent dopant. We studied change of fluorescence wavelength with concentration of DCM doped in AAB. The ionization potential (IP) and optical band gap (Eg) were measured by cyclic voltammetry and UV-visible spectrum. We compared with difference of emitting wavelength between photoluminescence and electroluminescence spectrum. In case of the multi-layer device, PANI and AVB EL spectra have similar wave pattern to each PL spectrum and when PAM and AVB were used at the same time, and multi-layer device showed that a balanced recombination and radiation kom PANI and AVB. In case of the single-layer device, with the increase of DCM concentration, the blue emission decreases and red emission increases. This indicates that DCM was excited by the energy transfer from AAB to DCM or the direct recombination at the dopant sites due to carrier trapping, or both. The device with $1.0wt\%$ DCM concentration gave white light.
