INTRODUCTION

Light emitting polymers or polymer based light emitting diodes discovered by Friend et al in 1990 has been found superior than other displays like, liquid crystal displays (LCDs) vacuum fluorescence displays and electro luminescence displays. Though not commercialised yet, these have proved to be a mile stone in the filed of flat panel displays. Research in LEP is underway in Cambridge Display Technology Ltd (CDT), the UK.

In the last decade, several other display contenders such as plasma and field emission displays wer ....etc

Light Emitting Polymers

-A light emitting polymer is an electro-luminescent plastic. The molecules of this plastic emit light when an electric field is applied.

-Polymer based light-emitting diodes (LED) were discovered in 1990.

-Cambridge Display Technology has the core patents for the Technology of LEP.

Light-emitting polymers




ABSTRACT
The seminar is about polymers that can emit light when a voltage is applied to it. The structure comprises of a thin film of semiconducting polymer sandwiched between two electrodes (cathode and anode).When electrons and holes are injected from the electrodes, the recombination of these charge carriers takes place, which leads to emission of light .The band gap, ie. The energy difference between valence band and conduction band ....etc

POLYMER LIGHT EMITTING DIODES (PLEDs)

Ø Polymer LED (light-emitting diode) - sometimes called light-emitting polymer or polyLED - is a technology based on the use of polymer as the semiconductor material in LEDs.

Ø Polymers are chemical substances that consist of large molecules that are themselves, made from many smaller and simpler molecules.

Ø Polymers are largely identified with insulation.

Research institutes have come up with ideas to integrate polymers into main stream electronics as it has been establis ....etc
