We report microcavity effect of top emission organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) by using Al cathode and anode, which are feasible for not only top emission EL and angle dependant effects but facile evaporation process without ion sputtering. The device in case of $Alq_3$ green emission showed largely shifted EL maximum wavelength as 650 nm maximum emission. It was also observed that detection angle causes different EL maximum wavelength and different CIE values in R, G, B color emission. As a result, the green device using $Alq_3$ emission showed 650 nm emission ($0^{\circ}$) to 576 nm emission ($90^{\circ}$) as detection angle changed. We believe that these phenomena can be also explained with microcavity effect which depends on the different length of light path caused by detection angle.

To obtain various colors from the blue emitting poly(fluorene)s, two different approaches are introduced. One is copolymerization with low band gap comonomers and the other is molecular doping with various dyes. As fast and efficient exciton migration and trapping and/or energy transfer between the chromorphoric segments or doped dyes in conjugated polymers can shift the emission to longer wavelengths, these phenomena can be utilized to obtain various colors from the intrinsically blue light emitting poly(fluorene)s.

Organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs) or electroluminescent devices have attracted much attention because of their possible application as large-area light-emitting displays. Their structure was based on employing a multilayer device structure containing an emitting layer and a carrier transporting layer of suitable organic materials. In this study, several Tb complexes such as Tb(ACAC)$_3$(Phen), Tb(ACAC)$_3$(Phen-Cl) and Tb(TPB)$_3$(Phen) were synthesized and the photoluminescence(PL) and electroluminescence (EL) characteristics of their thin films were investigated by fabricating the devices having a structure of anode/HTL/terbium-oomplex/ETL/cathode, where TPD was used as an hole transporting and Alq$_3$ and TAZ-Si were used as an electron transporting materials. It was found that the photoluminescence(PL) and electroluminescence(EL) characteristics of these terbium complexes were dependent upon the ligands coordinated to terbium metal. Details on the explanation of electrical transport phenomena of the structure with I-V characteristics of the OLEDs using the trapped-charge-limited current(TCLC) model will be discussed.

The market demand of display devices is drastically increasing in the information technology age. The research on OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) display with the luminescence in itself is being more paid attention than LCD (Liquid Crystal display) with the light source from the back. The vapor deposition process is most essential in manufacturing OLED display. The temperature distribution of the linear cell in this process is closely related to securing the uniformity of organic materials on the substrate. This work analyzed the temperature distribution depending on the intervals between the crucible and the heating band as well as on the amount of the heat flux from the heating band. Moreover, the roles of the water jacket and the configuration of the cover within the linear cell were examined through the temperature analysis for six configurations of the linear cell. Under the above temperature analysis, the variations in the intervals and the amount of the heat flux were considered to have an effect on building the uniform temperature distribution within the crucible. It is predicted that the water jacket and the adequate configuration of the cover will prevent the blowout and clogging phenomena, respectively. The results can be used as the fundamental data for designing the optimal linear cell.

사파이어($Al_2O_3$) 단결정 웨이퍼는 청색 LED(light emitting diode) 제작을 위한 핵심 소재로 사용되고 있으며, 사파이어 단결정의 품질에 따라 LED의 성능이 크게 좌우하게 된다. 여러 가지 사파이어 단결정 제조방법 중 키로플러스(Kyropoulos)법은 도가니 직경에 근접한 크기로 잉곳 생산이 가능하며, 내부 전위밀도가 낮아 고품질의 대구경 사파이어 잉곳 제작이 가능하다. 키로플러스법 공정에서 용융 알루미나의 유동은 seed의 성장 형태, 도가니 및 단열재의 형상에 영향을 받으며, 유동양상에 따라 단결정 사파이어 잉곳의 품질이 좌우된다. 특히 온도구배는 hot-zone 내부의 히터 구조와 밀접한 관련이 있으므로 본 연구에서는 도가니 단위표면적당 하부와 측면 히터의 발열비율에 따른 CFD(computational fluid dynamics) 해석을 실시하고, 해석결과를 토대로 각각 용융 알루미나의 유동 및 remelting 현상에 대해 분석하였으며, 이상적인 히터 발열비율을 도출하였다.

Photo-induced memory effect of an organic light-emitting diode(OLED) composed of a hydrazone-derivative(DBAH) dispersed in bis-phenol-A type polycarbonate polymer(PCA) in the presence of thio-Michler's ketone, was investigated by the measuring of the current density and luminance at the various conditions. After the light exposure, the current of the OLED was decreased approximately one order, and the luminance of the OLED also decresed. This memory effct was erasable by heating the OLED to the temperature higher than the glass transition temperature(Tg). As shown in this result, we found the memory effect was erased by heating and returned to its original state in the hole injecting layer(HIL) of the OLED. A series of these phenomena was suggested the possibility of the application to the imaging plate.

Dark Mura phenomena which can happen at the region with high temperature gradient in a Notebook LCD Monitor using LED light source has numerically been studied. The calculation was conducted under the nearly realistic conditions by considering the anisotropic thermal properties of materials and the real dimensions of each component. The two performance indices of LED monitor, i.e., the maximum temperature and the spacial gradient of temperature were examined for the various shapes, lengths and thickness of heat sink plate. Calculated results give more reasonable temperature distribution comparing with experimental results.

The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of the microtip length in a slot-die head on coating of a fine poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) stripe. To this end, we have employed a meniscus guide with a 150-㎛-wide microtip and performed roll-to-roll slot-die coatings by varying its length between 500 ㎛ and 50 ㎛. When the microtip length is 150 ㎛ or shorter, we have observed three unexpected phenomena; 1) though the solution spreads much wider than the microtip width, yet the coated stripe width is almost the same as the microtip width, 2) the stripe width decreases, but the stripe thickness is rather increased with increasing coating speed at a fixed flow rate, 3) we obtain stripes much narrower than the microtip width at high coating speeds. It is due to the fact that 1) the meniscus is not well controlled by a short microtip, 2) the main stream of solution from the outlet is very close to the substrate and thus the distributed solution along the head lip merges with the main stream, and 3) the solution is not spread over the entire microtip end at high coating speeds, causing a tiny wobble in the meniscus. Using the 150-㎛-wide and 250-㎛-long microtip, we have fabricated 153-㎛-wide and 94-nm-thick PEDOT:PSS stripe at the maximum coating speed of 13 mm/s. To demonstrate its applicability in solution-processable organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), we have also fabricated an OLED device with the fine PEDOT:PSS stripe and obtained strong light emission from it.

반도체 소자의 축소로 인한 처리속도의 향상이 더욱 어려워지고 있다. 따라서 반도체 산업의 새로운 도약을 위해서 실리콘을 이용한 광전소자의 출현(Silicon photonics)이 더욱 절실해지고 있다. 제조의 간단성, 반복성, 안정성, 고속성, 일반실리콘 반도체 공정과의 병존성 등의 특성으로 인해 애벌런치 항복에 의한 발광 소자는 실리콘 발광소자의 구현에 유력한 후보 중의 하나이다. 애벌런치 발광현상에 대해 전기적, 광학적 측정을 하고, 간단한 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 통하여 발광부위의 형태, $n^{+}-p$ 접합의 깊이, 불순물의 농도, 에피층의 높이 등의 설계요소가 발광특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 시뮬레이션의 결과와 실제의 계측 결과를 비교하여, 차이점을 야기하는 이유, 애벌런치 항복의 발광현상을 설명하였고, 개선방안을 제시하였다.

Background: This study aims to develop an integrated optical system that can simultaneously or selectively measure the signals obtained from radioluminescence (RL), thermoluminescence (TL), and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), which are luminescence phenomena of materials stimulated by radioactivity, heat, and light, respectively. The luminescence mechanism of various materials could be investigated using the glow curves of the luminescence materials. Materials and Methods: RL/TL/OSL integrated measuring system was equipped with a X-ray tube (50 kV, $200{\mu}A$) as an ionizing radiation source to irradiate the sample. The sample substrate was used as a heating source and was also designed to optically stimulate the sample material using various light sources, such as high luminous blue light emitting diode (LED) or laser. The system measured the luminescence intensity versus the amount of irradiation/stimulation on the sample for the purpose of measuring RL, TL and OSL sequentially or by selectively combining them. Optical filters were combined to minimize the interference of the stimulation light in the OSL signal. A long-pass filter (420 nm) was used for 470 nm LED, an ultraviolet-pass filter (260-390 nm) was used for detecting the luminescence of the sample by PM tube. Results and Discussion: The reliability of the system was evaluated using the RL/OSL characteristics of $Al_2O_3:C$ and the RL/TL characteristics of LiF:Mg,Cu,Si, which were used as dosimetry materials. The RL/OSL characteristics of $Al_2O_3:C$ showed relatively linear dose-response characteristics. The glow curve of LiF:Mg,Cu,Si also showed typical RL/OSL characteristics. Conclusion: The reliability of the proposed system was verified by sequentially measuring the RL characteristics of radiation as well as the TL and OSL characteristics by concurrent thermal and optical stimulations. In this study, we developed an integrated measurement system that measures the glow curves of RL/TL/OSL using universal USB-DAQs and the control program.
