Microcavity effects in a spin-coated polymer two-layer system

Abstract

We report on the design and the optical properties of a spin-coated multilayer organic microcavity. Tri(stilbene)amine blended with polysulfone as the first layer and an oxadiazole derivative (BPBD) blended with polystyrene as the second layer are sandwiched between two planar mirrors. Enhancement of the luminescence and spectrally narrow emission are observed. By means of time resolved luminescence spectroscopy we show that the spontaneous emission rate is increased in the cavity.
