Organic light emitting diodes (OLED) is an exciting new technology that attracted much attention to scientist for emissive technology. The basic OLED structure consists of a stack of fluorescent organic layers sandwiched between a transparent conducting anode and metallic cathode. The important problems in luminescence is that, molecules aggregate in solid state that leads formation of excimers which results in emission quenching so that most of the luminescent materials show weak emissions in their solid forms. In order to overcome these problem studies has been carried out to either suppress the quenching of organic luminophores or to produce significant enhancements in their light emission upon aggregation. Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) materials seem to be promising emitters in the fabrication of electroluminescent devices with high efficiency. In this study, various tetraphenylethylene (TPE) emitters were synthesized and characterized for using in OLED applications. The TPE has been functionalized with various heterocyclic aromatic side groups. Photophysical, electrochemical, thermal and AIE properties of the compounds were studied. In addition, the synthesized molecules were examined for their.

Donor-Acceptor (D-A) type conjugated polymers are very popular for potential applications such as organic light emitting diodes, solar cells, electrochromic devices and organic field effect transistors. In literature, cyclopentadithiophene and its derivatives are commonly used electron donor units for organic solar cells. The incorporation of selenium atom into polymer backbone results in low band gap polymers as compared to sulfur and oxygen counterparts. In this study, selenophene containing conjugated po...

Donor–acceptor (D–A) conjugated polymers have been widely used for potential applications such as organic light emitting diodes, solar cells, electrochromic devices and organic field effect transistors. Benzazole comprising conducting polymers are popular for the last few decades since they can be used as low-band-gap donor materials because of their strong intramolecular charge transfer characteristics and excellent photovoltaic performances. Strong electron-donating and withdrawing building blocks are nec...
Ensemble Monte Carlo simulation of quantum well infrared photodetectors
Memiş, Sema; Tomak, Mehmet; Department of Physics (2006)
Quantum well infrared photodetectors (QWIPs) have recently emerged as a potential alternative to the conventional detectors utilizing low bandgap semiconductors for infrared applications. There has been a considerable amount of experimental and theoretical work towards a better understanding of QWIP operation, whereas there is a lack of knowledge on the underlying physics. This work provides a better understanding of QWIP operation and underlying physics through particle simulations using the ensemble Monte...
Nanocrystal silicon based visible light emitting pin diodes
Anutgan, Mustafa; Katırcıoğlu, Bayram; Department of Physics (2010)
The production of low cost, large area display systems requires a light emitting material compatible with the standard silicon (Si) based complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology. The crystalline bulk Si is an indirect band semiconductor with very poor optical properties. On the other hand, hydrogenated amorphous Si (a-Si:H) based wide gap alloys exhibit strong visible photoluminescence (PL) at room temperature, owing to the release of the momentum conservation law. Still, the electrolumine...
