Electrical and optical properties of light emitting devices with quantum dots dispersed in PVK matrix
In this study, we fabricated QD-LEDs with QD emitters dispersed in poly(9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) matrix. The emission layer was prepared by spin-coating of the PVK solution dispersed with red QD nanoparticles. The concentration of QDs was varied to be 0.5, 2.0, 5.0, and 10.0 mg/ml in PVK solution of 25 mg/ml. As the QD concentration increases, the current efficiency of QD-LED gradually increases and the emission from PVK matrix decreases. In addition, we investigated energy transfer system with QD and organic dopant material using same structure in emissive layer. We obtained a maximum current efficiency of 4.1 cd/A and an external quantum efficiency of 3.0% were achieved at a QD concentration of 5.0 mg/ml in QD-LEDs.
