High brightness conjugated polymer LEDs

We report on light emitting diodes (LEDs) using a green emission polymer system developed by Dow Chemical. The LEDs were tested with both AC and DC drive schemes. Optimised devices have a CW brightness in excess of 25,000 cd/m 2 and a peak pulsed brightness exceeding 2,000,000 cd/m 2. We describe th...

Summary:We report on light emitting diodes (LEDs) using a green emission polymer system developed by Dow Chemical. The LEDs were tested with both AC and DC drive schemes. Optimised devices have a CW brightness in excess of 25,000 cd/m 2 and a peak pulsed brightness exceeding 2,000,000 cd/m 2. We describe the fabrication and processing steps required to reach this performance and highlight prospects for further development.
