Blue Polarized Electroluminescence from a Liquid Crystalline Polyfluorene

Abstract: Highly polarized electroluminescence from a liquid‐crystal polymer device, based on a branched polyfluorene with a branched side chain, is demonstrated here as a further step towards the use of organic electroluminescent (EL) devices as backlights in conventional liquid‐crystal displays. The modification of a polyimide (PI) for hole conduction by addition of a suitable filler at moderate concentration is reported and the performance of a device containing such a rubbed, hole‐conductor‐filled PI layer as the al… Show more

“…In a previous report on EL from aligned PF2-6, where the polymer was aligned by direct contact with an underlying polyimide film, the DR calculated from the ratio of the peak emission parallel and perpendicular to the alignment layer was 15. 5 For the single layer device used here the ratio of the EL peaks was 19 at 447 nm showing that the top-down approach is at least as good as the bottom up approach for aligning poly͑fluorene͒s. The dramatic difference though be- tween the two methods of alignment is in the device performance.…”

“…The most common method is a bottom-up approach, where an alignment layer is positioned between the electrode and the emissive layer. [3][4][5][6] The alignment layers used in this bottom-up approach have consisted of rubbed polymer 3,5,6 or photopolarized layers. 4 The problem with both of these methods is that the alignment layer is normally an electrical insulator.…”
