  • Before the ultra-violet glue encapsulation, the research evaporated LiF thin film on device surface to be the extra packaging layer for improving the lifetime of organic light-emitting diode. The formula of UV glue was specially developed. We found 100 nm LiF is the optimum thickness. The best lifetime obtained by using LiF and special UV glue is 2.4 times longer than those by commercial UV glue.

  • We demonstrate that the local resonance of metamaterials can be tuned by the effects of organic thin films under photoexcitation. Tris (8-hydroxyquinolinato) aluminum ($Alq_3$) layers are deposited on metamaterial/silicon hybrid structures. By varying the thickness of the $Alq_3$ layer on the subwavelength scale, the resonant peak of the metamaterial becomes very adjustable, due to the effect of a thin dielectric substrate. In addition, under photoexcitation all the spectral peaks of the resonance shift to higher frequencies. This originates from the reduction of the capacitive response generated inside the gaps of split-ring resonators. The adjustability of the electromagnetic spectrum may be useful for developing optical systems requiring refractive-index engineering and active optical devices.

  • We have controlled the graphene surface in two ways to improve the device performance of optoelectronics based on graphene transparent conductive films. We controlled multilayer graphene (MLG) work function and localized surface plasmon resonance wavelength using a silver nanoparticles formed on graphene surface. Graphene substrates were prepared using a chemical vapor deposition and transfer process. Various size of silver nanoparticles were prepared using a thermal evaporator and post annealing process on graphene surface. Silver nanoparticles were confirmed by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Work functions of graphene surface with various sizes of Ag nanoparticles were measured using ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). The result shows that the work functions of MLG could be controlled from 4.39 eV to 4.55 eV by coating different amounts of silver nanoparticles while minimal changes in the sheet resistance and transmittance. Also the Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) wavelength was investigated according to various sizes of silver nanoparticles. LSPR wavelength was measured using the absorbance spectrum, and we confirmed that the resonance wavelength could be controlled from 396nm to 425nm according to the size of silver nanoparticles on graphene surface. To confirm improvement of the device performance, we fabricated the organic solar cell based on MLG electrode. The results show that the work function and plasmon resonance wavelength could be controlled to improve the performance of optoelectronics device.

  • Exploring earth-abundant, highly effective and stable electrocatalysts for electrochemical water splitting is urgent and essential to the development of hydrogen (H2) energy technology. Iron-cobalt layered double hydroxide (FeCo-LDH) has been widely used as an electrocatalystfor OER due to its facile synthesis, tunable components, and low cost. However, LDH synthesized by the traditional hydrothermal method tends to easily agglomerate, resulting in an unstable structure that can change or dissolve in an alkaline solution. Therefore, studying the real active phase is highly significant in the design of electrochemical electrode materials. Here, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are used as template precursors to derive FeCo-LDH from different iron sources. Iron salts with different anions have a significant impact on the morphology and charge transfer properties of the resulting materials. FeCo-LDH synthesized from iron sulfate solution (FeCo-LDH-SO4) exhibits a hybrid structure of nanosheets and nanowires, quite different from other electrocatalysts that were synthesized from iron chloride and iron nitrate solutions. The final FeCo-LDH-SO4 had an overpotential of 247 mV with a low Tafel-slope of 60.6 mV dec-1 at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 and delivered a long-term stability of 40 h for the OER. This work provides an innovative and feasible strategy to construct efficient electrocatalysts.

  • Amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin-film transistors (TFTs) are fabricated on flexible organic polymer foil substrates. As-fabricated performance, electrical bias-stability at elevated temperatures, electrical response under mechanical flexing, and prolonged mechanical stability of the TFTs are studied. TFTs made on plastic at ultra low process temperatures of $150^{\circ}C$ show initial electrical performance like TFTs made on glass but large gate-bias stress instability. An abnormal saturation of the instability against operation temperature is observed.

  • We have investigated the effectiveness of a gravure printing method for the fabrication of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) and Organic Thin Film Transistor (OTFT). Printing of the organic layers was performed with a small-scale gravure coating machine, while the metallic layers were vacuum-evaporated. Devices with gravure-printed layers are at least comparable with the spin-coated devices. Effects of the solvent formulation and surface energy mismatch between the organic layer materials on the printed patterns and device performance were discussed. We will present the initial design and experimental data of OTFT fabricated by roll-type soft contact transfer process.

  • Optically transparent materials such as fused silica, quartz and crystal have become important in the filed of optics and optoelectronics. Laser ablation continues to grow as an important technique for micromachining and surface modification of various materials, because many problems caused by direct contact between tools and workpiece can be avoided. Especially, laser ablation with excimer lasers enables fine micromachining of transparent materials such as fused silica, quartz and crystal, etc. In this study, laser-induced wet etching of fused silica in organic solution was conducted. KrF excimer laser was used as a light source and acetone solution of pyrene was used as etchant. Changing the number of laser pulses, micro holes of various depths are fabricated.

  • The characteristics of $Al_2O_3/Ag/Al_2O_3$ multilayer passivaton prepared by twin target sputtering (TTS) system for organic light emitting diodes. The $Al_2O_3/Ag/Al_2O_3$ multilayer thin film passivation on a PET substrate had a high transmittance of 86.44 % and low water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of $0.011\;g/m^2$-day due to the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of Ag interlayer and effective multilayer structure for preventing the intrusion of water vapor. Using synchrotron x-ray scattering and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) examinations, we investigated the growth behavior of Ag layer on the $Al_2O_3$ layer to explain the SPR effect of the Ag layer. This indicates that an $Al_2O_3/Ag/Al_2O_3$ multilayer passivation is a promising thin film passivation scheme for organic based flexible optoelectronics.

  • Graphene films have a strong potential to replace indium tin oxide anodes in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), to date. However, the luminous efficiency of OLEDs with graphene anodes has been limited by a lack of efficient methods to improve the low work function and reduce the sheet resistance of graphene films to the levels required for electrodes. Here, we fabricate flexible OLEDs by modifying the graphene anode to have a high work function and low sheet resistance, and thus achieve extremely high luminous power efficiencies (37.2 lm/W in fluorescent OLEDs, 102.7 lm/W in phosphorescent OLEDs), which are significantly higher than those of optimized devices with an indium tin oxide anode (24.1 lm/W in fluorescent OLEDs, 85.6 lm/W in phosphorescent OLEDs). We also fabricate flexible white OLED lighting devices using the graphene anode. These results demonstrate the great potential of graphene anodes for use in a wide variety of high-performance flexible organic optoelectronics.
