Abstract

The operation characteristics of polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs) are strongly dependent on materials, processing and the structure of the device. The device structure developed at Philips Research is presented together with some typical results for brightness, efficiency, response times and stability. The PLEDs typically operate at a voltage of 3–4 V for a brightness of 100 cd m-2 and have an efficiency ranging from 2 cd A-1 for orange emitting polymers (610 nm) up to 16 cd A-1 for green emitting polymers (550 nm). The response time under conditions for display operation is determined by the charge carrier transport properties and amounts to 43 ns. Lifetimes of several thousand hours have been obtained for large orange emitting devices of 8 cm2 for daylight visibility at room temperature.
