Abstract
AbstractWe report the application of the blue light emitting conjugated polymer m-LPPP (methyl substituted laddertype poly(paraphenylene) ) in light emitting electrochemical cells. The active layer of the LEC consists of a blend of m-LPPP with the ionically conductive polymer PEO and LiCF3SO3 as ionic salt. Investigations of different concentrations of PEO and salt showed that the best LECs made of m-LPPP up to now where realised with an active layer consisting of a blend of m-LPPP:PEO:salt in the range of 20:10:3. In this case we are able to realise LECs with response times in the range of 30 μs. The I/U characteristics show low turn on voltages both for current and electroluminescence, but only in the case of ITO biased as a cathode. The initial electroluminescence spectra are quite the same as those for LEDs made of m-LPPP but turn into green after some time of operation.
