Abstract

Atomic force microscopy was conducted on electroluminescent polymers for demonstrating optical imaging. Results showed brighter emission from polymer surface. Similar asperities were found when surface morphologies of polymer and indium tin oxide substrate were compared. Stronger luminescence intensity from asperities was caused at higher electric field due to reduced polymer thickness. Simultaneous optical and electrical transport properties can be obtained with the help of this method.
