摘要
In this work, performance enhancements of amplified spontaneous emission （ASE） from poly[2-methoxy-5-（2＇- ethyl-hexyloxy）-l,4-phenylene vinylene] （MEH-PPV） have been achieved via solvent vapour treatment. Correlations between the morphology of the film and the optical performance of polymer-based ASE are investigated. The active layers are characterised by atomic force microscopy and optical absorption. The results show that the solvent-vapour treatment can induce the MEH-PPV self-organisation into an ordered structure with a smooth surface, leading to enhanced optical gain. Thus the solvent-vapour treatment is a good method for improving the optical properties of the MEH-PPV.
