摘要
Besides directly emitting light, electroluminescence in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) can excite surface plasmons (SPs) on the metal electrodes of the device. By designing a microcavity OLED with thin film metal electrodes, we can directly probe a SP mode by leaky wave extraction with a high refractive index glass prism coupler. Additional angle and polarization resolved reflection measurements on the OLED multilayer structure together with transfer matrix calculations allow us to unequivocally characterize the electroluminescent-driven SP mode.
