Definitions
- the present invention relates to a photocurrent multiplier, and more particularly, to a photocurrent-multiplier using a photocurrent multiplication phenomenon caused by a photoconductive organic semiconductor, and further comprising an organic electroluminescence (organic EL) layer to convert light to light.
- the present invention relates to a photocurrent multiplier including a light-to-light conversion element for obtaining a light field.
- the photocurrent multiplier can be used, for example, for a photosensor. Background art
- a photocurrent multiplication device using a photocurrent multiplication phenomenon by a photoconductive organic semiconductor has used a photocurrent amplification effect at an organic Z metal interface.
- a photomultiplier has a San-Germanti-type cell structure in which a photoconductive organic semiconductor layer or a laminate of an organic electroluminescent layer and an organic electroluminescent layer is sandwiched between two metal electrodes.
- the photoconductive organic semiconductor layer a single vapor-deposited thin film composed of only one kind of organic semiconductor, which was highly purified by purification, was used.
- the photomultiplier layer containing a photoconductive organic semiconductor can be realized not only as a vacuum-deposited film but also as a resin-dispersed film in which a photoconductive organic semiconductor is dispersed in a resin (Nishikawa).
- the multiplication factor (the ratio of the number of electrons due to the multiplied photocurrent flowing through the element to the number of incident photons) of the photomultiplier using the photoconductive organic semiconductor of the conventional single vapor deposition thin film described above reaches 100,000 times. Since it has photodetection ability comparable to the photomultiplier tubes currently used for photodetection, it has sufficient potential as an optical sensing device. However, it takes several tens of seconds to respond to the start of light irradiation (light on) and the stop of light irradiation (light off) of the multiplied photocurrent. In other words, the photoresponse speed of the multiplied photocurrent is extremely high. It had the disadvantage of being slow, and was an obstacle to applying the photocurrent multiplier as a photosensor.
- the present invention also provides a resin dispersion film in which the photocurrent multiplication layer is a vacuum deposited film.
- the device is intended for a photocurrent multiplication device that includes both a photocurrent multiplication device and an optical-to-light conversion device, and the multiplication photocurrent in such a photocurrent multiplication device is intended.
- the purpose is to increase the light response speed of the light. Disclosure of the invention
- the present inventors have found that a photoconductive organic semiconductor thin film to which a different material is added has been a problem in contrast to the above-described conventional photomultiplier using a vapor-deposited thin film made of a single organic semiconductor or a resin dispersion film. It was found that the light response speed of the multiplied photocurrent can be remarkably increased.
- the present invention is directed to a method of obtaining light irradiation-induced current with a multiplied quantum yield by irradiating light to a photocurrent multiplication layer containing a photoconductive organic semiconductor while applying a voltage to the photocurrent multiplication layer.
- a current multiplying device in which an organic electroluminescent layer is integrated with a photocurrent multiplying layer, and a light-to-light conversion light is obtained from the organic electroluminescent layer by irradiating the photocurrent multiplying layer with light.
- the photocurrent multiplication layer contains a heterogeneous material that affects photoelectric conversion in addition to the photoconductive organic semiconductor.
- the photocurrent multiplying device of the present invention includes one in which the photocurrent multiplying layer is a vapor-deposited film and one in which the photocurrent multiplying layer is a resin dispersion film.
- the photoresponse speed of the multiplied photocurrent which has been a problem so far, can be remarkably increased, and the present invention can be applied to a photosensor.
- a high-speed response photocurrent multiplier can be realized.

- Light is applied to the photocurrent multiplication layer 1 in a state where a voltage is applied by the power supply 4 to the laminate of the photocurrent multiplication layer 1 and the organic electroluminescent layer 10 via the hole transport layer 11 by the electrodes 2 and 3.
- light-light converted light 20 is obtained from the organic electroluminescent layer 10.
- 1 8 ′ represents the transmitted light of the incident light 18 to this element.
- the electrode 3 since the light 18 is applied to the photomultiplier 1 through the electrode 3, the electrode 3 must be transparent to the irradiated light. Further, since the light-light converted light 20 is extracted from the organic electroluminescent layer 10 through the hole transport layer 11 and the electrode 2, the hole transport layer 11 and the electrode 2 are not transparent to the light 20. must not.

- the concentration of the photoconductive organic semiconductor in the resin-dispersed organic semiconductor layer is preferably 30 to 60% by weight. If the concentration is less than 30% by weight, the conductivity of the film decreases, so that the photo-irradiation induced current decreases accordingly and the photocurrent multiplication characteristics and light-to-light conversion characteristics of the multiplication element decrease. come. Conversely, if the concentration is higher than 60% by weight, the photocurrent multiplication characteristics and the light-to-light conversion characteristics are improved, but the uniformity of the film is reduced, and the probability of conduction between the upper electrode and the lower electrode is increased. As the mechanical strength decreases, it becomes difficult to produce large-area devices.
- the thickness of the resin-dispersed organic semiconductor layer is preferably 0.5 to 2.0 m. If the film thickness is smaller than this range, the ⁇ current increases, the light irradiation induced current decreases, and the photocurrent multiplication characteristics and the light-to-light conversion characteristics of the multiplication element decrease. In addition, the probability that the upper electrode and the lower electrode are conductive is increased. Conversely, when the film thickness is larger than this range, a predetermined voltage is applied to the resin-dispersed organic semiconductor layer.

- Figure 5 shows the dependence of the multiplication factor on the applied voltage (a) and the photoresponse characteristics of the multiplied photocurrent when using the Me-PTC single vapor-deposited film without any addition as the photocurrent multiplication layer 1.
- (B) is shown. The measurement was performed by irradiating 480 nm monochromatic light.
- Copper phthalocyanine (CuPC) (Fig. 6) was doped by co-evaporation.
- Fig. 7 shows the dependence of the multiplication factor on the applied voltage when a Me-PTC vapor-deposited thin film doped with 2.3% (volume ratio) of CuPc by co-evaporation was used as the photomultiplier layer 1. ) And the photoresponse characteristics (b) of the multiplied photocurrent.
- the multiplication factor is lower than that of the pure Me_PTC, the response speed is considerably improved, and both the rise and fall times are about 1 second.
- the speeding-up of the fall response during light-off and the effective suppression of hysteresis was successfully achieved for the first time by the heterogeneous material doping method.
- the S / N ratio between the multiplied photocurrent and the ⁇ current.
- Figure 8 shows the applied voltage dependence of the multiplication factor (a) and the multiplied photocurrent when a Me_PTC thin film doped with 1. 1.% (volume ratio) of perylene by co-evaporation was used as the photocurrent multiplication layer 1.
- the photoresponse characteristics (b) are shown. In the measurement of Fig. 8 (b), the applied voltage was 3 V.
- the photocurrent multiplication in Me-PTC is caused by the accumulation of photogenerated holes in traps near the negatively biased Au / Me-PTC interface, and a high electric field concentrated on the interface. Large numbers of electrons are tunnel injected into Me-PTC (see M. Hiramoto, T. Imahigas i, and M. Yokoyama, Applied Physics Letters, 64, 187 (1994)).
- the mechanism of high-speed response by doping with CuPc or perylene is not clear at present.
- the microstructure of the Me—PTC thin film which is an aggregate of crystals, is hardly affected by the low doping concentration. The following mechanisms are possible.
- Me-PTC was used as the photoconductive organic semiconductor causing multiplication, but the present invention is applicable to all photoconductive organic semiconductors causing multiplication reported so far.
- As a form of the organic film not only the vapor-deposited film of the example but also a resin dispersion film can be applied by adding and dispersing a different material.

Abstract
On provoque la multiplication du courant photoélectrique au niveau de l'interface entre la couche de multiplication du courant photoélectrique (1) et l'électrode (2) en soumettant une couche de multiplication du courant photoélectrique (1) au rayonnement par lumière (18) tout en appliquant une tension sur la couche de multiplication du courant photoélectrique (1) par l'intermédiaire d'électrodes (2, 3). Ladite couche de multiplication du courant photoélectrique (1) constitue un film évaporé qui est formé par addition d'une matière différente sur un semi-conducteur organique photoconducteur (dopage). Ce semi-conducteur organique photoconducteur peut être un pigment de pérylène (Me-PTC). Le film de multiplication du courant photoélectrique présente une épaisseur de 500 nm. Le Me-PTC est sublimé et purifié deux fois avant son utilisation. L'électrode métallique (2) est constituée d'un film évaporé en or semi-transparent, dont l'épaisseur est de 20 nm, et l'électrode métallique (3) est constituée d'un ITO (Indium-oxyde d'étain) et est une électrode évaporée transparente réalisée sur un substrat de verre. La réponse lumineuse du courant photoélectrique multiplié est accélérée.
