We present the development of multifunctional blue-emission organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using TADF-exciplex materials. These OLEDs exhibit sensitivity to external stimuli and achieve a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 11.6% through partly liquid processing. This technique allows for large-scale production on arbitrary geometries.
The potential multifunctionality of the devices arises from their response to low external magnetic fields (up to 100 mT) with an efficiency up to 2.5% for magnetoconductance, while maximum magneto-electroluminescence effects of 4.1% were detected. We investigated novel aspects, including the utilization of two organic materials without further doping and the investigation of the impact of 2,2ʹ,2″-(1,3,5-Benzinetriyl)-tris(1-phenyl-1-H-benzimidazole) (TPBi) processing in liquid and vapor form. The insights gained provide a fundamental understanding regarding the applicability of exciplex (EX) materials for fully solution-processed OLEDs through a deliberate omission of doping. Our work represents a significant advancement on the path towards multifunctional OLED technology, with potential applications in cost-efficient, scalable organic full-color displays and advanced sensing system.
Sodium iron hexacyanoferrate (NaFeHCF) films were electrodeposited on Au/Cr/Si for the study of growth behavior and physical properties. The NaFeHCF films were studied by different analytical methods to prove the chemical composition, morphology and crystal structure. The grains of the film grow with a cubic structure with an average lattice parameter of 10.10 Å and the preferential growth direction along the [111] direction of the cubic cell. The films show a repeatable bipolar resistive switching behavior accompanied by high current changes (up to a factor of ~105). The different resistive states in the materials are dominated by ohmic conduction.
Development and Characterization of a Dispersion-Encoded Method for Low-Coherence Interferometry
(2022)
This Open Access book discusses an extension to low-coherence interferometry by dispersion-encoding. The approach is theoretically designed and implemented for applications such as surface profilometry, polymeric cross-linking estimation and the determination of thin-film layer thicknesses. During a characterization, it was shown that an axial measurement range of 79.91 µm with an axial resolution of 0.1 nm is achievable. Simultaneously, profiles of up to 1.5 mm in length were obtained in a scan-free manner. This marked a significant improvement in relation to the state-of-the-art in terms of dynamic range. Also, the axial and lateral measurement range were decoupled partially while functional parameters such as surface roughness were estimated. The characterization of the degree of polymeric cross-linking was performed as a function of the refractive index. It was acquired in a spatially-resolved manner with a resolution of 3.36 x 10-5. This was achieved by the development of a novel mathematical analysis approach.
