Red organic electroluminescent(EL) devices based on poly(N-vinylcarbazole)(PVK) and tris(8-hydroxyquinorine aluminum)($Alq_3$) doped with red emissive material, 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-t-butyl-6-(1,1,7,7-tetramethyljulolidyl-9-enyl)4H-pyran(DCJTB), poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT), Rubrene and 4-dicyanomethylene-2-methyl-6[2-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H,5H-benzo-[i.j])quinolizin-8yl)vinyl-4H-pyran(DCM2) were fabricated. We examine the energy transfer from $Alq_3$ to DCJTB, P3HT, Rubrene and DCM2 by comparing between the PL and EL spectrum. The maximum peak PL intensities were achieved when the doping concentration of DCJTB, DCM2, P3HT and Rubrene has 5, 1, 0.5, 2wt%, respectively. The maximum luminance of device using DCJTB showed $594\;cd/m^2$ at 15V.

Organic EL devices, which have the sing3e-layer structure of ITO(indium-tin-oxide) /PPV(poly(p-phenylene vinylene))/cathode and the double-layer structure of ITO/PVK (poly(N- vinylcarbazole)) /PPV/cathode, were fabricated and their electro-optical properties were investigated. Experimental results, in single-layer structure, shown that the increment of temperature for thermal conversion of PPV film from $140^{\circ}C$ to $260^{\circ}C$ decreases the maximum luminance from $118.8\;cd/m^{2}$(20V) to $21.14\;cd/m^{2}$(28V) and shift the maximum peak of EL spectrum from 500nm to 580nm. The lower the work function of cathode is, the more the luminance and injection current of device. In double-layer structure, as the concentration of PVK solution decreases from 0.5 wt% to 0.05 wt%, the luminance of device increases from $70.71\;cd/m^{2}$(32V) to $152.7\;cd/m^{2}$(26V).

Electroluminescent(EL) devices based on organic materials have been of great interest due to their possible applications for large-area flat-panel displays. They are attractive because of their capability of multi-color emission, and low operation voltage. An approach to realize such device characteristics is to use active layers of lanthanide complexes with their inherent extremely sharp emission bands in stead of commonly known organic dyes. In general, organic molecular compounds show emission due to their $\pi$-$\pi*$ transitions resulting in luminescence bandwidths of about 80 to 100nm. Spin statistic estimations lead to an internal quantum efficiency of dye-based EL devices limited to 25%. On the contrary, the fluorescence of lanthanide complexes is based on an intramolecular energy transfer from the triplet of the organic ligand to the 4f energy states of the ion. Therefore, theoretical internal quantum efficiency is principally not limited. In this study, Powders of TPD, $Eu(TTA)_3(phen) and AlQ_3$ in a boat were subsequently heated to their sublimation temperatures to obtain the growth rates of 0.2~0.3nm/s. Organic electrolumnescent devices(OELD) with a structure of $glass substrate/ITO/Eu(TTA)_3(phen)/AI, glass substrate/ITO/TPD/Eu(TTA)_3(phen)/AI and glass substrate/ITO/TPD/Eu(TTA)_3(phen)/AIQ_3AI$ structures were fabricated by vacuum evaporation method, where aromatic diamine(TPD) was used as a hole transporting material, $Eu(TTA)_3(phen)$ as an emitting material, and Tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)Aluminum$(AlQ_3)$ as an electron transporting layer. Electroluminescent(EL) and current density-voltage(J-V) characteristics of these OELDs with various thickness of $Eu(TTA)_3(phen)$ layer were investigated. The triple-layer structure devices show the red EL spectrum at the wavelength of 613nm, which is almost the same as the photoluminescent(PL) spectrum of $Eu(TTA)_3(phen)$.It was found from the J-V characteristics of these devices that the current density is not dependent on the applied field, but on the electric field.

Electroluminescence(EL) devices based on organic thin films have attracted lots of interests in large-area light-emitting display. Recently, many EL researcher have interested a new emissive organic material. In this study, light-emitting organic electroluminescent devices were fabricated using Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) technique with new emissive organic material. This new emissive organic material were synthesis by our teams and we called PECCP [poly(3,6-N-2ethylhexyl carbazoly cyanoterephthalidene)] which has strong electron donor group and electron acceptor group in main chain repeat unit. This material has good solubility in common organic solvent such as chloroform. THF, etc. and has a good stability in air. In here, the new emissive material is applied to Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) method because our new material has a good stability in air. Optimum conditions of film deposition were examined by a surface pressure-area( $\pi$ -A) isotherms with various factors. The LB film were deposited on a indium Tin Oxide(ITO) glass. We were investigated by measuring current-voltage(I-V) characteristics. Also we were measured the UV/visible absorption at about 410nm and PL spectrum at about 530nm. We are attempt to the electroluminescence device properties of the new emissive material by Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) technique.

The effect of doping on the energy transfer and charge carrier trapping processes has been studied in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) doped with a fluorescent laser dye. The devices consisted of N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD) as a hole transporting layer, tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$) as the host, and a fluorescent dye, 4-dicyanomethylene-2-methyl-6-[2-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1 H,5H-benzo[i,j]quinolizin-8-yl) vinyl]-4H-pyran) (DCM2) as the dopant. Temperature dependence of the current-voltage-luminescence (I-V-L) characteristics, the electroluminescence (EL) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra are studied in the temperature ranging between 15 K and 300 K. The emission from DCM2 was seen to be much stronger compared with the emission from $Alq_3$, indicative of efficient energy transfer from $Alq_3$ to DCM2. In addition, the EL emission from DCM2 increasd with increasing temperature while the emission from the host $Alq_3$ decreased. The result indicates that direct charge carrier trapping becomes efficient with increasing temperature. The EL emission from DCM2 shows a slightly sublinear dependence on the current density, implying the enhanced quenching of excitons at high current densities due to the exciton-exciton annihilation.

Zinc complexes with Bis[2-(o-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazolato ligands (ZnPBS-0) and Bis[2- (o-hydroxynaphthyl) benzothiazolato ligands (ZnPBS-05) were synthesized, and luminescent properties of these materials were investigated. The emission band found that it strongly depends on the molecular structure of introduced ligand and was tuned from 525 nm to 535 nm by changing the ligand structures. Spreading of the ${\pi}-conjugation$ in 2-(o-hydroxyphenyl) group gives rise to a blue shift. On the other hand, spreading of the ${\pi}-conjugation$ in benzothiazole groups leads to a red shift. The EL properties also showed good consistency with their differences of ligand structure. Bright-blue EL emission with a maximum luminance of 8300 $cd/m^{2}$ at 11V was obtained from the organic light - emitting diodes (OLEDs) using ZnPBS-0 as emitting layer. It was also found that the newly synthesized materials were suitable to be used as emitting materials in organic EL device.

A novel zinc complex, Zn(phen)q, was synthesized from 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and 8-hydroxyquinoline (q) as organic ligands and its electroluminescent (EL) properties were characterized. The structure of Zn(phen)q was elucidated by FT-IR, UV-Vis and XPS. The complex Zn(phen)q showed thermal stability up to $300^{\circ}C$ under nitrogen flow, which was measured by TGA and DSC. The photoluminescence (PL) of the Zn(phen)q was measured from the THF solution and the solid film on quartz substrate. The PL emission of Zn(phen)q exhibited green light centered at about 505nm. The EL devices were fabricated by the vacuum deposition. The EL devices having the structure of ITO/a-NPD/Zn(phen)q/Li:Al were studied, where 4,4'-bis[N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino]biphenyl(a-NPD) used as a hole transport layer(HTL). a-NPD has high Tg of $96^{\circ}C$ and thus makes the device thermally stable. The EL emission of Zn(phen)q exhibited also green light centered at 532nm.

We have synthesized poly(3-hexylthiophene) and studied the optical properties of P3HT for applying to the red emitting materials of organic electroluminescent device. Usually, an organic EL device is composed of single layer like anode/emitting layer/cathode, but additional layer such as hole transport, electron transport and buffer layer is deposited to improve device efficiency. In this study, Multilayer EL devices were fabricated using tris(8-hydroxyquinolinate) aluminum($Alq_3$) as electron transport material, (N,N'-diphenyl-N,,N'(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'diamine))(TPD) as hole transport/electron blocking materials and LiF as buffer layer. That is, a device structure of ITO/blending layer(TPD+P3HT)/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al was employed. In the Multilayer device, the luminance of $10{\mu}W/cm^2$ obtained at 10V. And, we present the experimental evidence of the enhancement of the Foster energy transfer interaction in emitting layer.

Ionizer is used in removal of static-electricity charge from several production processes such as flat panel display, organic EL, etc. In this paper, we introduce remote monitoring systems for ionizer which have been built to communicate with multiple ionizer and to control the power and ionizing state independently. Based on a series of tests, we verified the key functions of this controller such as unit connection, quantity of ion and electric charge, alarm, and successful communication between PC and controller. This system may be directly applicable to monitor systems for ionizer in the manufacturing processes of TFT-LCD, PDP, organic EL, and others.
