A method for the fabrication of micrometer-and submicrometer-sized polymeric light-emitting diodes is presented. Such diodes have a variety of applications. Light sources of dimensions around 100 nanometers are required for subwavelength, near-field optical microscopy. Another possible application is patterning on the micrometer and nanometer scale. The diodes have been made in the form of a sandwich structure, with the conductive polymer poly(3,4-ethylene-dioxythiophene) polymerized in the pores of commercially available microfiltration membranes defining the hole-injecting contacts, poly[3-(4-octylphenyl)-2,2;-bithiophene] as the light-emitting layer, and a thin film of calcium-aluminum as the electron injector.
提出了一种制造微米和亚微米尺寸聚合物发光二极管的方法。这种二极管有多种应用。亚波长、近场光学显微镜需要尺寸在 100 纳米左右的光源。另一个可能的应用是在微米和纳米尺度上进行图案化。这些二极管采用三明治结构制成，其中导电聚合物聚（3,4-亚乙基二氧噻吩）在商用微滤膜的孔中聚合，形成孔注入接触，聚[3-（4-辛基苯基）-2,2-联噻吩]作为发光层，以及薄钙铝膜作为电子注入器。
