Abstract
Electroabsorption (E-A) and electrophotoluminescence (E-PL) responses of polymer films of CdSe quantum dots (QDs) incorporated sulfide-substituted poly(1,4-phenylene vinylene) derivative CdSe-S3PPV were measured. The observed Stark shift both in E-A and E-PL responses is likely to be caused by a substantial contribution of change in molecular polarizability (Δα¯) and change in electric dipole moment (|Δμ|) following photoexcitation. Together with Stark shift, field-induced photoluminescence (PL) quenching and enhancement were observed depending on excitation energy. The quenching of PL of CdSe-S3PPV film is interpreted in terms of an exciton model-a breaking of electron-hole pairs in the presence of electric field.
