This material can be used as a substrate for a near UVlight-emitting diode (LED) stack, and leads to monolithic white LED device with suitable spectral property for general lighting applications. In this paper, we describe basic technologies of the white LED, such as optical properties of f-SiC substrate, and epitaxial growth of NUV stack on the f-SiC substrate.展开更多

Two different donor polymers, poly[4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[ 1,2-b;4,5-b']dithiophene-2,6-diyl-alt-(4-(2-ethylhexyl)-3-fluorothieno[3,4- b]thiophene)-2-carboxylate-2,6-diyl] (PTB7-Th) and poly[(5,6-difluoro-2,1,3-benzothiadiazol-4,7-diyl)-alt-(3,3'-di(2- dodecyltetradecyl)-2,2';5',2";5",2'-quaterthiophen-5,5'"-diyl)] (PffBT4T-2DT), with suitably complementary absorption spectra and energy levels were applied and examined. Among all different donor-acceptor pairs studied here, the combination of PTB7-Th:poly[NN-bis(1-hexylheptyl)-3,4,9,10-pery,enediimide-1,6/1,7-diyl-alt-2,5-thiophene] (PDI-Th) exhibited the best power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 5.13%, with open-circuit voltage (Vo:) = 0.79 lV, short-circuit current density (Jsc) = 12.35 mA.cm-2 and fill-factor (FF) = 0.52. The polymer of PDI-Th acceptor used here had a regio-irregular backbone, conveniently prepared from a mixture of 1,6- and 1,7-dibromo-PDI. It is also noteworthy that neither additive nor post- treatment is required for obtaining such a cell performance.展开更多
