摘要
We present an investigation of current-induced heating in polymer light emitting diodes. Using short electrical pulse measurements, we were able to quantify the temperature rise in the active region. We consider that heating effects play a major role in limiting the maximum efficiency of devices and in initiating degradation mechanisms. Heating and heat sinking are also discussed in the context of electrically pumped polymer lasers. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
