Abstract
En 中文
In this study, it is shown that an efficient organic optocoupler (OPC) can be fabricated using commercially available and solution-processable organic semiconductors. The transmitter is a single-active-layer organic light-emitting diode (OLED) made from a well-known polyparavinylene derivative, Super Yellow. The receiver is an organic light-emitting diode (OLSD) with a single active layer consisting of a mixture of the polymer donor PTB7-Th and the low-molecular-weight acceptor ITIC; the receiver operates without an applied reverse voltage. OLED and OLSD have the same geometry and simple structure without any interlayers: glass/ITO/PEDOT:PSS/(active layer)/Ca/Al; the OPC is formed by OLED and OLSD which adhere tightly to each other. Despite its simple structure, the OPC showed a current transfer ratio of 0.13%, good linearity, and good dynamic performance: a three-decibel cutoff frequency of 170 kHz and response times to a step change in current at the OPC input of 2 mu s. Compared to most organic OPC devices with similar performance parameters, where the transmitter and receiver have complex structures with additional interlayers between the active layers and electrodes and the need to apply a reverse voltage to the receiver, the simple design of our OPC reduces the number of fabrication steps and greatly simplifies the device fabrication process.
