What
is polymer light emitting diode (PLED)? Basic Principle of PLED Efficiency of Polymer LED devices Polymer LED display Technology Advantages and Disadvantages of PLED Display Technology Future Outlook Conclusion
Electrons are injected into the conduction band and holes are injected into the valence band of the polymeric semiconductor The injected electrons and holes can diffuse towards each other and finally recombine. By this process, neutral excitations are created When these exited states decay into their ground state, a characteristic fluorescence is generated.
Polymer Light Emitting Diode technology enables full color, full-motion flat panel displays with a level of brightness and sharpness not possible with other technologies. PLEDs are self-luminous and do not require backlighting, diffusers, polarizers, or any of the other baggage that goes with liquid crystal displays. There are two forms of PLED Displays:
Brilliant, highly luminous colors, an unimpeded viewing angle of nearly 180 , and an extremely thin structure. Simpler structure self-luminescent High Resolution Power Usage Takes less power to run (2 to 10 volts). Flexibility
Future Outlook
The PLED technology faces a bright future in the display market PLEDs might replace some fluorescent lights in the next 10 --20 years. PLED sheets could replace wallpapers or coat ceilings and provide very pleasant uniform lighting in any home or work area
Conclusions
These brilliant Plastics will soon enable us not only to make innovative light sources, but also their optoelectronic counterpartthe solar cell Polymer LEDs are much more promising than previously thought Organic semiconductors will not replace established silicon technology; but they will offer inexpensive solutions for simple applications
For all we know and can hope for.... PLEDs could change the ways in which we see things.
