  • We make performance simulations of three different organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), one of which is based on a conventional layered structure and the others on a blended structure where an emitting layer (EML) is either uniformly or stepwise mixed with an electron transport layer (ETL), Tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$).

  • Here we report the influence of thermal treatment on the performance of high efficiency polymer solar cells with the bulk heterojunction films of poly[4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b'] dithiophene-alt-3-fluorothieno[3,4-b]thiophene-2-carboxylate] (PTB7-Th) and [6,6]-phenyl $C_{71}$ butyric acid methyl ester ($PC_{71}BM$). The crystalline nanostructure of PTB7-Th:$PC_{71}BM$ layers, which were annealed at three different temperatures, was investigated by employing synchrotron radiation grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD) technique. Results showed that the device performance was slightly reduced by thermal annealing at $50^{\circ}C$ but became significantly poor by thermal annealing at $100^{\circ}C$. The poor device performance by thermal annealing was attributed to the collapse in the crystalline nanostructure of PTB7-Th in the PTB7-Th:$PC_{71}BM$ layers as evidenced by the GIXD measurements that exhibited huge reduction in the intensity of PTB7-Th (100) peak even at $50^{\circ}C$.

  • Indium-tin oxides (ITO) films have been widely used as transparent electrodes for optoelectronic devices such as organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), photovoltaics, touch screen devices, and flat-paneldisplay. In particular, to improve hole injection efficiency in OLEDs, transparent electrodes should have high work-function besides their transparency and low resistivity. Nevertheless, few studies have been made on engineering the work function of ITO for use as an efficient anode. In this study, the effects of a wide range of Nb or Zn doping rate on the changes in work functions of ITO anode were investigated. The Nb or Zn doped ITO films were fabricated on glass substrates using combinatorial sputtering system which yields a linear composition spread of Nb or Zn concentration in ITO films in a controlled manner by co-sputtering two targets of ITO and Nb2O5 or ITO and ZnO. We have also examined the resistivity, transmittance, and other structural properties of the Nb or Zn-doped ITO films. Furthermore, OLEDs employing Nb or Zn-doped ITO anodes were fabricated and the device performances were investigated concerned with the work function changes.

  • A high-power Yb-doped femtosecond (fs) fiber laser at a repetition rate of 1.83 GHz is reported. By employing a 5-stage repetition rate multiplier, the repetition rate of the mode-locked master oscillator was multiplied from 57.1 MHz to 1.83 GHz. The ultrashort pulse output at 1.83 GHz was amplified in a two-stage Yb-doped fiber amplifier, leading to >100 W of fs laser output with a pulse duration of 290 fs. The theoretical pulse width along the fiber was simulated, showing that it was in good agreement with experimental results. Further improvement in power scaling is discussed.
