Electroluminescent(EL) devices based on organic thin films are considered to be one of the next generation of flat-panel displays. In this paper, we have investigated electro-luminescent(EL) characteristics of organic EL device using $Alq_3$, PBD as emitting material. Current and luminance can be seen that express a similar relativity in voltage and could know that luminance is expressing current relativity.

Organic materials have been considered for the fabrication of practical electroluminescent(EL) devices because a large number of organic materials are known to have extremely high fluorescence quantum efficiencies in the visible spectrum. In this study, electroluminescent devices are constructed using novel organic materials PRL-401, PRL-403 as the emitting elements. The devices have a triple-layer structure of organic thin films, prepared by vacuum vapor deposition. Greenish yellow electroluminescent emission is observed. The maximum luminances are over 1000 $cd/m^2$ and the turn-on voltages are about 13 V.

As a potential electroluminescent material, tetrahydrochrysene (THC) is prepared using the dehydrocyclization following the acyloin condensation of methyl-3-phenyl propionate as key step from trans-mehyl cinnamate in 3 steps. THC showed emission at 428 and 456 nm after the photo- and electro-excitation, respectively. The luminance of THC doped on PVK was about /$25 cdm^2$ at 30 voltage with 70 nm of thickness. The results suggests that a new fluorescent organic dye, THC can be used organic electroluminescent device.

Multi-color organic electroluminescent (EL) displays have already been commercialized, and the simple extensions of present technologies on organic EL can not be a target for basic research anymore. Future prospect of research on organic electroluminescent devices are described from the view point of possible future break-through. Three aspects, perspective for further increase of device efficiencies, possibility of simplified device structures and possible use of thick organic layers, are discussed.

We fabricated organic electroluminescent(EL) devices with mixed emitting layer of poly(N-vinylcarbazole)(PVK), 2,5-bis(5'-tert-butyl-2-benzoxazoly)thiophene(BBOT), N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-(3-methyphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4, 4'-diarnine(TPD) and poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT). To improve the external quantum efficiency of EL devices, we added the functional layer to the devices such as LiF insulating layer, carrier confinement layer(BBOT) and hole injection layer(CuPc). In the ITO/emitting layer/Al device, the maximum quantum efficiency at 15V was $1.88{\times}10^{-5}%$. And then, it is increased by a factor of 27 to $5.2{\times}10^{-3}%$ in ITO/CuPc/emitting layer/BBOT/LiF/Al device at 15V.

We reported the optical and electrical characteristics of organic electroluminescent phenylamine derivatives. The maximum EL peak of organic electroluminescent devices(OELDs) with PDV-DMI and PDV-AQ are at 615nm and at 592nm which are corresponding to red and orange emission, respectively.

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.

In order to improve the device performances of organic electroluminescent devices (OELDs), the efficiency of carrier injections into the organic layers from electrodes and the balance of injected carrier densities in the emission region are critical factors. Especially, energy barriers, which exist at the interfaces between electrodes and organic layers, interrupt carrier injections, which lead to unbalanced carrier densities. In this study, ${\alpha}-septithiophene$ (${\alpha}$-7T), as a buffer layer, and composite cathode composed of Al and CsF were formed to improve hole and electron injections, respectively. The orientations of ${\alpha}$-7T molecules were adjusted using the simple rubbing method and the mass ratio of CsF was varied from 1 to 10 wt%. Upon investigation of we believe that the 3 wt% mass ratio of CsF and the horizontal orientation of ${\alpha}$-7T molecules are the optimized conditions for achieving better the performance of OELDs. Device with the horizontally oriented 20 nm thick ${\alpha}$-7T layer and composite cathode shows a turn-on voltage of 7V and luminance of 172 cd/$m^2$ at 4 mA/$cm^2$.

The multi-layered OELDs(organic electroluminescent devices) were prepared on the patterened ITO (indium tin oxide)/glass substrates by the vacuum thermal evaporation method. The $Alq_3$ (tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum) low molecule compound was used as the light emission layer. TPD(triphenyl-diamine) and $\alpha-NPD$ were used as the hole transport layer. CuPc (Copper phthalocyanine) was also used as the hole injection layers. In addition, QD2 (quinacridone2) organic material with $10\AA$ thickness was deposited in the $Alq_3$ emission layer to improve the luminance efficiency. The threshold voltage was about 7V for all devices. The luminance and efficiency of devices was improved by substitution the $\alpha-NPD$ for TPD as the hole as the hole transport layer. The luminance efficiency of the OELD sample with QD2 thin film in the $Alq_3$ emission layer was found to be 1.55 lm/W, which is about 8 times larger value compared to the sample without QD2 thin layer.
