초록

In this study, we manufactured polymer-LED using light emitting copolymer as the active layer. After cathode layer deposition, we did post-annealing at $150^{\circ}C$ during 10 min in $N_2$ glove box. Then, we confirmed that the efficiency of the device was significantly enhanced by post annealing process. Its value was increased from 0.18(cd/A) to 1.32(cd/A), approximately 7 times. This phenomenon is a result of improved stability between polymer and metal cathode for injection of electrons as the contact density increases.
