Effect of Thickness in Electroluminescence Spectra on 2-5 Dialoxy-PPV (ROPPV) Films
Abstract: The optical properties and electroluminescence (EL) of ROPPV (2-5-dialoxy-PPV) films of various thicknesses have been studied. The thickness of ROPPV layer on glass slide was measured by Fizeau fringes interferometric technique which varied from 200 to 400 nm. The absorption spectra show that the absorption occurred only in ultraviolet region. Thick films show only one peak at 310 nm, whereas by decreasing the thickness, the peaks are obtained at lower …
