Polymer Light Emitting Devices Based On Interfaces Enabled By Internally Compensated Doped Conjugated Polymers

There is a need for low cost, stable and efficient light emitting devices for solid-state lighting and polymer light emitting electrochemical cells (PLECs) are being actively explored for their potential in this area. The stability and efficiency of current PLECs needs to be improved if they are going to be practical. In order to improve stability...

Making Amorphous and Crystalline Alloys by Solid State Interdiffusion

This method is a new synthetic approach in which thin (15-50 A) amorphous elemental layers are sequentially deposited to create a unique initial reactant. The approach overcomes the limitations of traditional, diffusion-limited, solid-state synthetic methods, which offer no control of the reaction pathway and therefore no control over which intermediates...
