Abstract

This study provides a method of determining the internal electric field of polymer light emitting diodes (LEDs) in the working condition. The method employs Stark signals induced by triangular shaped pulse biases and enables estimates of the internal field in a broad voltage region. The internal field under forward bias is shown to be determined by the screening effect caused by injected carriers. Spatial distribution calculated for the LED suggests the presence of strong electric field formed by accumulated carriers near the electrodes. The proposed method is applicable to a variety of devices and can promote understanding of veiled roles of internal fields on device operation.
