All of the EL spectra present a similar blue-shift under the low-level current injection,and then turns to a red-shift tendency when the current increases to a specific value, which is defined as the turning point.The value of this turning point differs from one another for the three InGaN/GaN MQW samples. Sample A, which has the GaN barrier thickness of 21.3 nm, shows the highest current injection level at the turning point as well as the largest value of blue-shift. It indicates that sample A has the maximum intensity of the polarization field. The red-shift of the EL spectra results from the vertical electron leakage in InGaN/GaN MQWs and the corresponding self-heating effect under the high-level current injection. As a result, it is an effective approach to evaluate the polarization field in the InGaN/GaN MQW structures by using the injection current level at the turning point and the blue-shift of the EL spectra profiles.展开更多

When it was driven under a direct electric field, 612 nm emission from EU^3+ and 410 nm emission from PVK were observed. In addition, in the EL spectrum a new peak at 490 nm appeared. From the analysis of different devices, the mechanism of the new emission was studied. It was concluded that the new emission was the electroplex originating from the interface between the ligand (TTA)3Dipy and BCP.展开更多

Its structure was elucidated by IR, UV, and Elemental Analysis. Red light emitting diode (LED) was fabricated by using the novel europium complex as an emitting layer, tris(8-quinolinolate) aluminum (III) (Alq(3)) as an electron-transporting layer, N, N'-diphenyl-N, N'-(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD) as a hole-transporting layer. A cell structure of indium-tin-oxide/TPD/Eu-complex/Alq(3)/Mg: Ag was employed. Red electroluminescence was observed at room temperature with dc bias voltage of 2 V in this cell. 2 Red emission peaks at about 613 nm with maximum luminance of over 106 cd/m(2). Compared with the EL luminance from those europium complexes reported before, one from the Eu-complex is best in the same cells.展开更多

The average size of nc-Ga N is determined to be ~10 nm. The spectral measurements disclose that the photoluminescence(PL) from GaN/SiNPA is composed of an ultraviolet(UV) band and a broad band spanned from UV to red region, with the feature that the latter band is similar to that of electroluminescence(EL). The electron transition from the energy levels of conduction band and, or, shallow donors to that of deep acceptors of Ga N is indicated to be responsible for both the broad-band PL and the EL luminescence. A study of the I-V characteristic shows that at a low forward bias, the current across the heterojunction is contact-limited while at a high forward bias it is bulk-limited, which follows the thermionic emission model and space-charge-limited current(SCLC) model, respectively. The bandgap offset analysis indicates that the carrier transport is dominated by electron injection from n-GaN into the p-Si-NPA, and the EL starts to appear only when holes begin to be injected from Si-NPA into GaN with biases higher than a threshold voltage.展开更多

The crystallinity and EL characteristics of the samples are analyzed. It is found that the main diffraction peak is (200) at the higher substrate temperature and the main diffraction peak is (111) at the lower substrate temperature. The blue emission intensity and EL brightness of the SrS∶HoF 3 thin films increase with the increase of the substrate temperature. Annealing the samples can change the cyrstal phase and strengthen the blue emission of EL thin film.展开更多

Since only monochrome(ZnS∶Mn) electroluminescence(EL) displays of suitable size and speed are available, lack of colors has to be replaced by grayscale in the first place. There are two basic driving methods to achieve grayscale in thin-film EL displays: pulse amplitude modulation(PAM) method and pulse width modulation(PWM) method. But there are serious disadvantages of the two traditional methods. For the former method, the high voltage PAM ICs are too expensive to produce the grayscale EL display in bulks and the driver integrated circuit(IC) is complex. Though the PWM method has good grayscale display quality, the hardware implementation is too complex. A new driving method with which the width and the amplitude of the pulse can be modulated and simultaneously the challenge can be solved efficaciously is presented.展开更多

The effects of ultrasonic bonding parameters on the reliability of flip chip GaN-based LED were investigated. In the sequent aging tests, samples were driven with a constant current of 80 mA for hundreds hours at the room temperature. It was found that the electroluminescence (EL) intensity variation had a large correlation to the ultrasonic power, and then to the bonding temperature and force. A high bonding temperature and ultrasonic power and a proper bonding force improved the EL intensity significantly. It was contributed to a strong atom inter-diffusion forming a stable joint at the bonding interface, The temperature fluctuation in the aging test was the main factor to generate a high inner stress forming delamination at the interface between the chip and Au bump. As a result, delamination had retarded the photons to emit out of the LED packaging and decay its EL intensity.展开更多
