Integrated Instrumentation System for the Development of Ionic Polarized Polymer Light-Emitting Diodes

Abstract

A major discovery of the polymer solution light-emitting device (SLED) was uncovered when studying the metal/polymer interfaces. An attempt to improve the device contact by adding solvents on top of polymer film and subsequently placing a metal contact above it. when biased, the device illuminated while the polymer film was still wet. That mechanism of this new type of device is still unclear, however its suspected that this unique device operates by an electro-generated chemiluminescence mechanism.
