Abstract
Organic light emitting devices, in particular, properties of polymer light-emitting transistors with printed electrodes and bilayer printed devices with in-plane emission have been investigated and discussed. The semitransparent device based on poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene-co-benzothiadiazole) (F8BT) with Ag-nanowire source/drain and transparent carbon nanotube gate electrodes exhibits ambipolar and light-emitting characteristics. For the devices with oriented poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) (F8) films, enhanced electron and hole field-effect mobilities have been achieved by aligning the polymer chains parallel to the transport direction. The bilayer device using F8BT lower layer and oriented F8 upper layer with the channel direction parallel to the polymer orientation exhibits improved EL intensity and higher external quantum efficiency than that with the channel direction perpendicular to the polymer chains orientation. The optical pulses of more than 100 Hz frequency are generated by directly modulating a bilayer device with an in-plane emission pattern.
