Electrical and Photoinduced Degradation of Polyfluorene Based Films and Light-Emitting Devices
Abstract
Degradation-induced changes in the structural and optical properties of the polyfluorene-based blue emitting films and LEDs are examined using spectroscopic (FTIR, UV−vis, photo- and electroluminescence), analytical (FTIR and ESCA), and scanning probe microscopy techniques. The materials studied are oligomers (DP ∼ 10) of 9,9-di- n -hexylfluorene and its random copolymer with anthracene. In situ FTIR monitoring is used to characterize chemical changes in the active layer of operating LED devices. Two primary mechanisms of degradation are identified. In the first, photooxidation of the polymer matrix leads to the formation of an aromatic ketone, most likely fluorenone at the chain terminating monomer units, which quenches the fluorescence. The second process promotes aggregate formation, which then leads to loss of luminous intensity by exciton transfer and relaxation through excimers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
