Polyaniline and poly( N -vinylcarbazole) blends as anode for blue light-emitting diodes

Polyaniline and poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PANI:PVK) blends are introduced as an anode, and the advantages are demonstrated for organic light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Compared to the usual PANI network electrodes, use of the blend allows for simpler fabrication and provides a better planarized surface,...

Description
Summary:Polyaniline and poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PANI:PVK) blends are introduced as an anode, and the advantages are demonstrated for organic light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Compared to the usual PANI network electrodes, use of the blend allows for simpler fabrication and provides a better planarized surface, especially for the device with vapor-deposited emitting layer. PANI is not usually used for blue LEDs because of its strong light absorption in the deep-blue spectral region. This problem is practically solved by the use of the blend.
