Abstract
In this paper, the emission and aging properties of ZnS:Cu electroluminescent device were experiment respectively at room temperature and 7$0^{\circ}C$ relative humidity 100%. ZnS:Cu and BaTiO$_3$were respectively used for phosphor and dielectric. While AC 100V on 400Hz frequency were applied to the devices at room temperature and 70$_3$relative humidity 100%, the change of brightness were measured and compared. The surface of aged devices were investigated by scanning electron microscope. With the continuously operated environment of room temperature and 7$0^{\circ}C$ relative humidity 100%, the decay time were measured and the dark spot and aging status on the surface of the device were investigated. ZnS:Cu electroluminescent properties were deteriorated by the Increased temperature and humidity. Also the deteriorated properties were confirmed by the brightness and surface chanties of device, and the aging mechanism from the simulation on sulfur vacancy and deep tracts density.
