The purpose of this study was to determine optimum condition for the cultivation of Chlorella sp. FC-21, which is a freshwater microalgae, using light emitting diodes (LEDs). Specific growth rate and cell concentration were measured for the reactors at the illumination of different wavelengths of LEDs. Among various types of LEDs, red LEDs were the most effective light source, and also greatest increases of specific growth rate and cell concentrations were obtained when light intensity of red LEDs increased. From this study, we found that red LEDs were the most appropriate light source for the cultivation of Chlorella sp. FC-21.

We have investigated the photolithographic patterning method of light emitting polymer film for polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs). Blue light emitting polymers based on polyfluorene, which can be cured photochemically to yield an insoluble form, have been synthesized using Ni(0) mediated Yamamoto polymerization. The relationship between patterning property and several variables such as the intensity of the exposed UV light, the concentrations of additives, has been studied by using optical microscope analysis, UV/visible spectroscopy, and photoluminescence. We have successfully fabricated PLEDs composed of the patterned emissive layer and their electroluminescence property has been also investigated. In this presentation, the detailed photolithographic patterning method and its application for polymer light emitting display will be discussed.

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).

Various colors of light emitting diodes(LED) and four-band white light sources are obtained using a violet LED and various phosphor films. $BaMg_2Al_{16}O_{27}:Eu\;(blue),\;SrGa_2S_4:Eu\;(green),\;and\;Eu(TTA)_3(PTA)$ (red) phosphors are dispersed in poly-vinyl-alcohol aqueous solutions, and phosphor films are prepared by coating the suspensions to PET film. The narrow band emission of $Eu(TTA)_3(PTA)$ phosphor has excellent red luminescent property for four-band white light excited by the violet LED.

Achieving red light-emitting diodes with high quantum and luminous efficiency is required to fabricate the full-color organic electroluminescence display. In this work, we report that devices with 2.3,7,8,12,13,17,18-Octaethyl-21H,23H-porphine palladium (II) (PdOEP), doped into tris(8-Hydroxyquinolinato)-aluminum (III) (Alq3) show a narrow deep red emission (670nm). In addition, PdOEP has been used as host material in which red dyes such as 4-(Dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(4-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM) doped in order to fabricate efficient red-emitting diodes.

We report improved efficiency in blue electrophosphorescent organic light emitting diodes by introducing an interfacial exciton blocking layer between light emitting layer (EML) and hole transport layer (HTL). Iridium(III) bis [(4,6-di-fluorophenyl)- pyridinato -N,C2']picolinate (FIrpic) was used as blue phosphorescent dopant and JHK6-3 with carbazole and electron transporting group as host and also as the interfacial layer, resulting in drastic increase in quantum efficiency.

Controlling carrier transport in light emitting polymers is extremely important for their efficient use in organic opto-electronic devices [1]. Here we show that the interactions between single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and conjugated polymers can be used to modify the overall mobility of charge carriers within nanotube-polymer nanocomposites. By using a unique, double emitting-organic light emitting diodes (DE-OLEDs) structure. we have characterized the hole transport within electroluminescent nanocomposites (nanotubes in poly (m-phenylene vinylene-co-2,5-dioctoxy-p-phenylene) or PmPV). We have shown using this idea that single devices with color tunability can be fabricated. It is seen that SWNTs in PmPV are responsible for hole trapping, leading to shifts in the emission wavelengths. Our results could lead to improved organic optical amplifiers, semiconducting devices, and displays.

We report a dramatic increase in the photo-stability of a blue-emitting polymer, poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene), achieved by the addition of gold nanoparticles to the polymer. The optical absorption band of gold nanoparticles is tuned to resonate the triplet exciton-ground state band gap energy of the polymer. The photo-oxidation rate of poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) was drastically reduced by doping the polymer with a very small amount ($10^{-6}-10^{-5}$ volume fraction) of gold nanoparticles. The gold nanoparticles used herein act as the quenching agent of the triplet states and can be directly applied to various blue light emitting polymer thin film ( < 100 nm ) devices.

High-efficiency organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on multilayer transparent electrodes (MTEs) are reported. The dielectric/metal/dielectric (DMD) multilayer electrode based on a thin silver layer achieved high sheet conductance as small as $6{\Omega}/sp$ and a tuning capability in the optical and electrical properties by engineering the inner and outer dielectric layers. In the conventional normal bottom-emitting structure, a DMD-based OLED can be fabricated with 90% higher forward luminous efficiency and 30% higher external quantum efficiency (EQE) compared to ITO-based devices. Special attention was paid to the optimization method of such MTE structure considering both the injection and optical structures.
