Eelctroluminescence and photoluminescence of fluorene-carbazole copolymer

摘要

Thin alyers of ply(dihexylfluorene-co-N-hexylcarbazole) sandwiched between ITO and aluminium electrodes show stable photoluminescence and electro-luminescence at room temperature and ambient atmosphere. I(V) and Electro-luminescence versus voltage curves present a much lower threshold than device made up of poly(dihexylfluorene) homopolymer. When using the copolymer, the barrier height for hole injection is reduced to a value close to 0.17 eV to be compared to 0.83 eV for the hompolymer. This difference in offsets has been confirmed by electrochemical investigations.
