Abstract

Light-emitting diodes based on the molecularly thin film of a porphyrin derivative have been fabricated. Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films at two different surface pressures have been used as active materials of the device and their characteristics have been studied and compared. Devices with LB films deposited at a higher pressure show rectifying behaviour and electroluminescence (EL) was observed only in the forward bias. The other type of devices with LB films deposited at a lower pressure, yields EL in both bias directions. The effect of thickness of the active layers has been investigated. The turn-on currents for both the cases have also been compared.
