Electroluminescence is occurred when phosphor is located in electric field. In this paper, we made powder electroluminescent device (PELD) with structured ITO film/Phosphor/Insulator/Silver paste. The transparent electrode was ITO film and green(2704-01) and orange(2702-02) and blue-preen(2703-01) were used as phosphor. The insulator was BaTiO$_3$ and $Y_2$O$_3$, bark electrode was silver paste. To investigate electrical and optical properties of PELDs, EL spectrum, Brightness . Transferred charge density using Sawyer-Towers circuit was measured.

Red emitting CaS:Eu,S electroluminescent(EL) device prepared at 550.deg. C by an electron-beam evaporation technique, demonstrated luminance of 175cd/m$\^$2/ and efficiency of 0.311m/W with 3kHz drive. Luminance was increased with the increase of applied voltage and frequency. From the results of the PL spectrum and the EL spectrum, the CaS:Eu, S device showed emission peak near 640nm resulted from the transition of EU$\^$2+/ 4f$\^$6/5d.rarw.4f$\^$7/. The capacitance of the phosphor layer from the Sawyer-Tower circuit was 10.5nF/cm$\^$2/.

Many organic materials have been synthesized and extended efforts have been made to obtain high performance electroluminescence(EL) devices, since the first report of the light-emitting diodes based on Alq3. BECCP[bis(3-N-ethylcarbazolyl)cyanoterephthalidene] is a new luminescent material having cyano as an electron acceptor part and carbazole moiety as an electron donor part. The BECCP material shows blue PL and EL spectra of the device at about 480nm and in the ITO/BECCP/Al device shows typical rectifying diode characteristics. We have introduced Alq3 between the electrode and BECCP, and obtained more intensive rectifying diode characteristics in forward and reverse bias.

New electroluminescent materials based on anthracene chromophore with naphthylethenyl substituent, 9,10-bis($\alpha$-naphthylethenyl)anthracene (a-BNA), as well as four kinds of its derivatives were synthesized, and luminescent properties of these materials were investigated. Electrolumineecent(EL) emission band was discussed based on their substituent structure differences. It was found that the emission band strongly depends on the molecular structure of introduced substituent. It can be tuned from 557 nm to 591 nm by changing the substituent structures. On the other hand, the anthracene chromophore with bulky substituent possessed high melting point and they gave stable films through vacuum-sublimation. The double layer EL device of ITO/TPD/emission layer/Mg:Ag was employed, and exhibited efficient orange light originating from emitting materials. EL emission with a maximum luminance was observed in the b-BNA emitting material, : maximum luminance was about 8,060 cd $m^{-2}$ at an applied voltage of 10 V and current density of 680 $mA/cm^2$. In conclusion, the electroluminescent properties also showed good difference with their substituent structure.

White emission is important for applying organic EL devices to full-color flat panel display and backlight for liquid crystal display. In order to obtain white emission, the use of a light-emitting material which shows the white emission by itself is advantageous for these applications because of its high reliability and productivity. A chelate-metal complex such as zinc bis(2-(2-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazolate) ($Zn(BTZ)_{2}$ was known to emit white light with a broad electroluminescence. In this study, the electroluminescent characteristics of $Be(BTZ)_{2}$ and $Mg(BTZ)_{2}$, as well as $Zn(BTS)_2$ were investigated using organic electroluminescent devices with the structure of ITO/TPD/ $Be(BTZ)_{2}$, $Mg(BTZ)_{2}$, or $Zn(BTZ)_{2}/Al$. It was found that the device containing $Be(BTZ)_{2}$ showed the highest power efficiency.

Photoluminescent and cathodoluminescent charcteristics of inorganic luminescent materials were investigated ot develop possible phosphors for thin film electroluminescent (TFEL) device applications. Mg, Zn, and Photoluminescent and cathodoluminescent charcteristics of inorganic luminescent materials were investigated ot develop possible phosphors for thin film electroluminescent (TFEL) device applications. Mg, Zn, and $Si_3N_4$ powders were used to synthesize $(Mg_xZn_{1-x})SiN_2$ host materials. $Tb_4O_7$ and $Eu_2O_3$ powdrs were added as luminescent centers. Very sharp emission spectra of $Tb^{3+}$ ions were observed from $Mg._5Zn._5SiN_2:Tb$ sampels sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ for an hour and the maximum intensity of emission spectra occured at wavelength of 550nm (green light). Synthetic conditions of $(Mg_xZn_{1-x})SiN_2:Eu$ phosphors were optimized for the hghest luminescence. The Eu concentrations were varied from 0.2% to 1.6%. Before firing, the powders were mixed using ballmills, methanol, acetone, or D.I. water. The Mg/Zn ratio also were varied from x=0.3 to x=0.7. The maximum PL intensity was obtained from a sample with 1.2% Eu concentration and the powder was mixed with methanol and dried before firing. The maximum intensity of the emission spectra occurred t the wavelength of 470nm(blue light). TFEL devices fabricated by using sputter deposition of $(Mg._3Zn._7)SiN_2:Eu$ phosphor layer showed yellowish white emission at the phosphor field of 2MV/cm.

BaTiO$_{x}$ thin film as insulator and ZnS:Mn film as phosphour layer for thin film electrouminescent device have been deposited by thermal evalporation and dependence of electrical and opeical characeristics have been studied. The optimum deposition conditions for the BaTiO$_{x}$ thin film are such that BaTiO$_{3}$/TiO$_{2}$ mixing ratio was 0.7, sub strate temperature was 100 $^{\circ}C$ and annealing time was 1 hour at 300 $^{\circ}C$. In this case, the dielectric constant of BaTiO$_{x}$ thin film fabricated under those optimum conditions was 26, and for AnS:Mn thin films, the crystallization was done well and the deposition rate was 1300 $\AA$/min when substrate temperature was 200$^{\circ}C$. Thin film Electroluminescent devices were fabricated using BaTiO$_{x}$ and AnS:Mn thin films. The luminescence threshold voltage of device was 41.5 V and brightness was 1.2${\mu}W/cm^{2}$ at appied voltage of 50 V.

We studied emitting properties of organic electroluminescent devices fabricated using the spin-coating and Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) technique. The LB technique has the advantage of precise control of the thickness better than spin-coating method. LB monolayer of poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT) was deposited 27 layers onto the indium-tin-oxide(ITO) substrate as Y-type films by the vertical dipping method. In the absorption spectra, the λ$\_$max/ of P3HT-AA LB films and of spin-coating films showed about at 510, 545 and 590 nm corresponding to 2.43, 2.28, 2.10eV. And we observed that the turn-on voltage of devices deposited by LB method(10V) was higher than that of spin-coating method(8.5V) in voltage-current-luminance characteristic. In the logV-logJ characteristics of ITO/P3HT-AA LB/Al device, we confirmed that El device fabricated by LB method follows three conduction mechanisms: ohmic, space-charge-limited current(SCLC) conduction and trapped-carrier-limited space-charge current(TCLC) conduction.

Doping is a well-known method for improving electroluminescent (EL) efficiency of organic light emitting diodes. In our study, doping with 2 materials simultaneously, we could achieve improved EL efficiency. The emission layer was tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum, and the 2 dopants were N,N'-dimethyl-quinacridone (DMQA) and 10-(2-Benzothiazolyl)-2, 3, 6, 7-tetrahydro-1,1,7,7,-tetramethyl 1-1H, 5H, 11H-[1] benzopyrano [6,7,8-ij]quinolizin-11-one (C-545T). The EL intensity of co-doped device was nearly flat, it shows that co-doping technique could be a effective way to improve the EL efficiency. EL efficiency of Single-doped device based on DMQA and C-S45T were ~6.47Cd/A and ~7.45Cd/A, respectively. Co-doped device showed higher EL efficiency of ~8.30Cd/A.
