Abstract

We determined the optical constants and thickness of organic electroluminescence thin films using variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry. Using the measured transmittance spectra and the spectroscopic ellipsomeoy data of the organic films on glass substrates in the optically transparent region, we determined the effective thickness and the refractive indices of organic thin films. Then by applying a numerical inversion method to variable angle spectro-ellipsometry data, we determined the complex refractive index at each wavelength including the optically absorbing region, as well as the thickness and surface micro-roughness of the organic thin films. The calculated transmittance spectra showed a tight agreement with the measured ones, confining the validity of the present model analysis.

가변입사각 분광타원법(Variable Angle Spectroscopic Ellipsometry)을 사용하여 유기발광소자(OLED)의 발광층인 유기박막 의 광학상수와 두께를 결정하였다. 광투과영역에서 모델링분석으로 박막의 평균두께와 굴절률 분산식을 결정하고, 광흡수영역으로 확장하여 유기막의 다층구조, 각 층의 두께와 밀도 그리고 각 파장에서의 복소굴절률을 결정하였다. 분광광도계를 사용하여 구한 투과율 스펙트럼을 가변입사각 분광타원법을 사용하여 결정한 다층구조 및 복소굴절률로 계산한 투과율 스펙트럼과 비교하여 분석의 정확성을 확인하였다.
