We fabricated organic electroluminescent (EL) devices with single layer of poly(3-dodeoylthiophene) (P3DoDT) hlended with different amounts of poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) as a emitting layer. The molar ratio between P3DoDT and PVK changed with 1:0, 2:1 and 1:1. To improve the external quantum efficiency of EL devices, we applied insulating layer, LiF layer, between polymer emitting layer and Al electrode. All of the devices emit orange-red light and it's can be explained that the energy transfer occurs from PVK to P3DoDT. In the voltage-current and voltage-brightness characteristics of devices applied LiF layer, current and brightness increased with increasing applied voltage. The brightness of the device have a molar ratio 1:1 with LiF layer was about 10 times larger than that of the device without PVK at 6V. Electrical impedance properties of ITO/emitting layer/LiF/Al devices were investigated. In the Cole-Cole plots of impedance data, one semicircle was observed. Therefore, the equivalent circuit for the devices can be designed as a single parallel resistor and capacitor network with series resistor.

The 8-hydroxyquinoline Zinc(Znq2) were prepared successfully from zinc chloride and zinc acetate as two kinds of starting material. The organic electroluminescent devices(ELDs) were fabricated by the structure of ITO/TPD/Znq2/Al with N-N'-diphenyl-N-N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine(TPD) which acts hole trasporting layer and bis(8-oxyquinolino) zinc(II)(Znq2) which acts as emission and electron transporting layer. EL efficiency of Znq2 prepared by heating was investigated. The 570nm of main emission peak which is yellowich green was investigated by photo luminesence(PL) and this results shows that electro luminescence(EL) is from Znq2. The V-J curve shows that carrier injection were investigated from 4V. Maximum luminance and luminance efficiency were 1600cd/$\m^2$, 0.9lm/W. From this results, the Znq2 can be one of the useful organic EL material.

Organic electroluminescent devices (OELDs) have received a great deal of attention due to their potential application as full-color displays. Europium complexes are known as excellent red light-emitting materials for OELDs since they show intense photoluminescence at around 612 nm with a narrow spectral bandwidth. In this study, a novel europium complex, $Eu(TTA)_3(TPPO)$ was synthesized and its photoluminescent and electroluminescent characteristics were investigated with a device structure of ITO/TPD/$Eu(TTA)_3(TPPO)$/ $Alq_3$/Al, where sharp emission at the wavelength of 615 nm has been observed. Details on the electrical properties of these structures was also discussed.

In this paper, three types of organic electroluminescent devices(OELD) were fabricated on mechanically flexible plastic substrate by using vacuum deposition method. The devices consist of a hole transporting material such as TPD, a light-emitting material such as Alq$\sub$3/ and an electron transporting material, blocking material such as PBD. Electrical and optical properties of these OELDs were measured. This paper shows that organic small molecules based on OELD can be successfully deposited on a flexible plastic substrate. This points open the potential for low cost mass production of flexib]e displays, including roll to roll processing.

The organic electroluminescent(EL) device has gathered much interest because of its large potential in materials and simple device fabrication. We fabricated EL devices which have a blended single emitting layer containg poly(Nvinylcarbazole)[PVK] and poly(3-dodecylthiophene)[P3DoDT]. The molar ratio between P3DoDT and PVK changed with 1:0, 2:1 and 1:1. To improve the external quantum efficiency of EL devices, we applied insulating layer, LiF layer between polymer emitting layer and AI electrode. All of the devices emit orange-red light and it's can be explained that the energy transfer occurs from PVK to P3DoDT. Within the molar ratio 1:0, 2:1 and 1:1, the energy transfer was not saturated, which results in the not appearance of PVK emission in the blue region. In the voltage-current and voltage-light power characteristics of devices applied LiF layer, current and light power drastically increased with increasing with applied voltage. In the consequence of the result, the light power of the device have a molar ratio 1:1 with LiF layer was about 10 times larger than that of the device without PVK at 6V.

Organic electroluminescent devices have attracted a great deal of attention due to thier potential application to full-color flat-panel displays. The 8-hydroxyquinollne Zinc(Znq$_2$) were synthesized successfully from zinc chloride(ZnCl$_2$) and zinc acetate(Zn(C$_2$H$_3$O$_3$)$_2$) as green omitting material. A double-layer ELD consist of an emitting layer of B-hydroxyquinoline Zinc(Znq$_2$) and a hole-transport layer of tai-phenylene diamine(TPD) derivatives sandwiched between an Aluminium(Al) and Indium-Tin-Oxide(ITO) electrodes omitted green light resulting from Znq$_2$. The electroluminescent devices (ELD) exhibited a maximum luminance of 1000cd/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at a driving voltage of 8V and a driving current density of 0.4mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

Electroluminescent(EL) devices based on organic thin films have attracted lots of interests in large-area light-emitting display. One of the problems of such device is a lifetime, where a degradation of the cell is possibly due to an organic layers thickness, morphology and interface with electrode. In this study, light-omitting organic electroluminescent devices were fabricated using Alq$_3$(8-hydroxyquinolinate aluminum) and TPD(N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl(1-1\`-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine). Where Alq$_3$ is an electron-transport and emissive layer, TPD is a hole-transport layer. The cell structure is ITO/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al and the cell is fabricated by vacuum evaporation method. In a measurement of current-voltage characteristics, we obtained a turn-on voltage at about 9 V. We also investigated stability of the devices using buffer layer with blend of PEI (Poly ether imide) and TPD by varying mot ratios between ITO and Alq$_3$. In current-voltage characteristics measurement, we obtained the turn-on voltage at about 6 V and observed an anomalous behavior at 3∼4 V. And we used other buffer layer of PEDT(3,4-pyrazino-3',4'-ethylenedithio-2,2',5,5'-tetrathiafulvalenium) with ITO/PEDT/TPD/Alq$_3$Al structure. We observed a surface morphology by AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy), UV/visible absorption spectrum, and PL(Photoluminescence) spectrum. We obtained the UV/visible absorption peak at 358nm in TPD and at 359nm in Alq$_3$, and the PL peaks at 410nm in TPD and at 510nm in Alq$_3$. We also studied EL spectrum in the cell structure of ITO/(TPD+PEI)/Alq$_3$/Al.
