Show Abstract
A white organic light-emitting diode (WOLED) is produced upon systematic introduction of deep-blue fluorescence from 4,4′-bis(9-ethyl-3-carbazovinylene)-1,1′-biphenyl to broad-band yellow phosphorescence from bis[3,5-bis(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazolato]platinum(II) in the common host 4,4′-bis(carbazol-9-yl)biphenyl. The carrier recombination zone is first identified upon investigating alternative device structures, then optimized by varying the thickness of the electron-transport layer. The WOLED exhibits striking stability of color and efficiency, as manifest by parameters at high brightness of 1000 cd/m2 sustaining 94%–122% their values at 50 cd/m2.

Show Abstract
Heterojunction CrO3/ZnO light emitting diodes have been fabricated. Their performance was investigated for different annealing temperature for ZnO nanorods. Annealing in oxygen atmosphere had significant influence on carrier concentration in the nanorods, as well as on the emission spectra of the nanorods. Surprisingly, annealing conditions, which yield the lowest band edge-to-defect emission ratio in the photoluminescence spectra, result in the highest band edge-to-defect emission ratio in the electroluminescence spectra. The influence of the native defects on ZnO light emitting diode performance is discussed.

Show Abstract
Injection-type ballistic rectifiers on Si/SiGe are studied with respect to the influence of gate voltage on the transfer resistance RT (output voltage divided by input current) for different positions of a local gate electrode. The rectifiers are trifurcated quantum wires with straight voltage stem and oblique current-injecting leads. Depending on the gate configuration, thermopower contributions arise from nearly pinched stem regions, which either cancel each other or impose upon the ballistic signal with same or opposite polarity. At best, this enhances RT to a maximum value of 470 Ω close to threshold voltage.
