Abstract

Summary form only given. Efficient green-blue color light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) using ITO and aluminum as electrodes have been demonstrated. Devices with 4% external quantum efficiency and higher than 10 lumens/watt power efficiency have been demonstrated; the brightness is /spl sim/190 cd/m/sup 2/ at 3.1 volts and increases to /spl sim/1000 cd/m2 at 3.5 volts. To our knowledge, this is the best performance reported for polymer and organic light-emitting devices. These polymer LECs show competitive device performance even when compared to the latest gallium nitride light-emitting diodes.
