- Organic light-emitting transistors are pivotal components for emerging opto- and nanoelectronics applications, such as logic circuitries and smart displays. Within this technology sector, the integration of multiple functionalities in a single electronic device remains the key challenge. Here we show optically switchable organic light-emitting transistors fabricated through a judicious combination of light-emitting semiconductors and photochromic molecules. Irradiation of the solution-processed films at selected wavelengths enables the efficient and reversible tuning of charge transport and electroluminescence simultaneously, with a high degree of modulation (on/off ratios up to 500) in the three primary colours. Different emitting patterns can be written and erased through a non-invasive and mask-free process, on a length scale of a few micrometres in a single device, thereby rendering this technology potentially promising for optically gated highly integrated full-colour displays and active optical memory.

- © 2019 IEEE. In this paper we experimentally demonstrate, for the first time, staggered carrier-less amplitude and phase (sCAP) modulation for visible light communication systems based on polymer light-emitting diodes emitting at ∼639 nm. The key advantage offered by sCAP in comparison to conventional multiband CAP is its full use of the available spectrum. In this work, we compare sCAP, which utilises four orthogonal filters to generate the signal, with a conventional 4-band multi-CAP system and on-off keying (OOK). We transmit each modulation format with equal energy and present a record un-coded transmission speed of ∼6 Mb/s. This represents gains of 25% and 65% over the achievable rate using 4-CAP and OOK, respectively.

- Visible light communication systems often suffer from high frequency attenuation when transmitting out-of-band. This effect has been ameliorated by multi-band modulations such as multi-band carrier-less amplitude and phase (m-CAP), which minimises the effect of decreased high frequency magnitude and maximises signal-to-noise ratio-per-sub-band. On the other hand, in the pass-band region, super-Nyquist CAP (SCAP) can offer throughput improvements with no additional complexity at the receiver, at the cost of bit error rate. We propose, for the first time, a new hybrid SCAP modulation format that takes advantageous of both SCAP (i.e. overlapped sub-bands within the modulation bandwidth) and conventional m-CAP (orthogonally spaced bands outside the modulation bandwidth) while maintaining isolation between noise sources. We show higher baud rates within the passband region whilst supporting out-of-band transmission at lower error vector magnitudes.

- © 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.A series of new near-infrared (NIR) emitting copolymers, based on a low band gap 6-(2-butyloctyl)-4,8-di(thiophen-2-yl)-[1,2,3]triazolo[4',5':4,5]benzo[1,2-c]-[1,2,5]thiadiazole (TBTTT) fluorophore copolymerized into a high band gap poly[3,3'-ditetradecyl-2,2'-bithiophene-5,5'-diyl-alt-5-(2-ethylhexyl)-4H-thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6(5H)-dione-1,3-diyl] (P2TTPD) host backbone, for polymer light-emitting diode (PLED) applications is reported. PLEDs fabricated from the host polymer (P2TTPD-0) show external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) up to 0.49% at 690 nm, with turn-on voltage (Von) at only 2.4 V. By incorporating the TBTTT segments into the host polymer backbone, pure NIR emission peaking at ca. 900 nm is obtained with Von remaining below 5 V. This work demonstrates that such a low Von can be attributed to efficient intrachain energy and/or charge transfer to the TBTTT sites. When the NIR emitting copolymer (P2TTPD-10) is blended with P2TTPD-0, the TBTTT are confined to well-separated polymer chains. As a result, the EQE from the blend is lower and the Von higher than that obtained from the pure copolymer (P2TTPD-1.0) with equal content of TBTTT. An analogous copolymer (P4T-1.0), consisting of poly[3,3'-ditetradecyl-2,2':5',2'':5'',2'''-quaterthiophene-5,5'''-diyl] (P4T) as the host and 1% TBTTT as the NIR emitter, further demonstrates that pure NIR emission can be obtained only through optimized molecular orbital energy levels, as in P2TTPD-1.0, which minimizes chances for either charge trapping or exciton splitting.

- We report the optical characterization of near-infrared (NIR) emitters for polymer light-emitting diode (PLEDs) applications based on the copolymerization of a phthalimide-thiophene host polymer with a low-gap emitter containing the bisthienyl(benzotriazolothiadiazole) unit. We investigate different loadings of the low-gap emitter (in the range 1-3% by weight) and the substitution of a sulphur atom with a selenium atom to further extend the emission in the NIR up to 1000 nm. PLEDs based on copolymers with 1% loading give the best efficiency (0.09%) and show an almost pure NIR EL (95% in the NIR) peaking at 895 nm.
