Abstract

Polymeric materials are one of promising materials for organic electronics devices fabricated by printing technology. Among polymeric materials, poly(9,9-dialkylfluorene) (PFO) is one of soluble conducting polymers for polymeric light-emitting diodes (PLEDs), which exhibits high fluorescence quantum yield, high electron and hole mobility and good thermal stability. Layered polymeric light emitting diodes were fabricated by solution process in order to enhance the emission characteristics, especially, emission intensity and emission efficiency. Inserting a thin film of polymeric inter-layer between an emissive and a carrier transporting layer, emission intensity and efficiency were enhanced. Finally, the PLEDs exhibited high speed operation at 100MHz with direct driving operation. The PLEDs can be used as an electro-optical conversion device for optical signal transmission.
