9303019 Gao This research addresses surface and interfacial phenomena in polymeric light emitting diodes (LEDs). The objectives are to understand the electronic states involved in electroluminescence and the electronic and chemical structure of polymer/metal interfaces. Coordinated experimental studies of the interface formation of poly(phenylene vinylene)PPV and a selection of metals using x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), inverse photoemission spectroscopy (IPES), electroluminescence spectroscopy (ELS), and other surface sensitive probes will be conducted. The combination of XPS and IPES in the same ultra-high vacuum (UHV) system allows probing of both occupied and unoccupied electronic structures independently and simultaneously. Concurrent measurement of ELS is expected to reveal relationships between light emission efficiency and interface electronic structure and chemistry. %%% This research is expected to provide fundamental information useful for the future development of polymer based flat panel display technologies. Parameters of practical interest such as the thicknesses of the polymer and metal layers, different degrees of conversion and different types of light emitting polymers, and the stability of the LEDs will be investigated. The project combines expertise in surface physics and polymer chemistry, and is a joint effort between university and industrial research scientists. The interdisciplinary nature of the project and the academic and industrial collaboration is expected to uniquely benefit students and enhance the transfer of knowledge from university to industry. ***

9303019高：本研究针对聚合物发光二极管（led）的表面和界面现象进行了研究。目的是了解电致发光的电子状态以及聚合物/金属界面的电子和化学结构。利用x射线光电发射光谱（XPS）、逆光电发射光谱（IPES）、电致发光光谱（ELS）和其他表面敏感探针，对聚苯乙烯-乙烯基PPV和选定金属的界面形成进行协调实验研究。XPS和IPES结合在同一个超高真空（UHV）系统中，可以独立地同时探测被占用和未被占用的电子结构。同时测量ELS有望揭示光发射效率与界面电子结构和化学之间的关系。这项研究有望为未来聚合物基平板显示技术的发展提供有用的基础信息。研究人员还将研究诸如聚合物和金属层的厚度、不同程度的转换和不同类型的发光聚合物以及led的稳定性等具有实际意义的参数。该项目结合了表面物理和聚合物化学方面的专业知识，是大学和工业研究科学家的共同努力。该项目的跨学科性质以及学术和工业合作预计将使学生受益，并促进知识从大学到工业的转移。＊＊＊
