Methods and compositions for obtaining patterned structures comprising fluorine-containing polymeric materials. The fluorine-containing polymeric materials have sufficient fluorine content such that the materials can be patterned using conventional photolithographic/pattern transfer methods and maintain desirable mechanical and physical properties. The patterned structures can be used, for example, in light-emitting devices.

Methods of making patterned structures of fluorine-containing polymeric materials and fluorine-containing polymers

An electroluminescent (EL) device, including a semiconductor structure, a first electrode, and a second electrode. The semiconductor structure includes: a first higher mobility semiconductor layer having a first mobility; a second higher mobility semiconductor layer having a second mobility; and a lower mobility semiconductor layer formed between the first higher mobility semiconductor layer and the higher mobility second semiconductor layer. The lower mobility semiconductor layer has a third mobility that is less than the first mobility and the second mobility. The semiconductor structure includes EL semiconducting material in the first higher mobility semiconductor layer, the second higher mobility semiconductor layer, and/or the lower mobility semiconductor layer. The first electrode is coupled to the first higher mobility semiconductor layer of the semiconductor structure. The second electrode is coupled to the second higher mobility semiconductor layer of the semiconductor structure.

Mobility engineered electroluminescent devices

A laterally configured electrooptical device including: a substrate having a surface; a first semiconductor layer of a first type semiconductor material; a second semiconductor layer formed of a second type semiconductor material different from the first type semiconductor material; a first electrode; and a second electrode. The lower surface of the first semiconductor layer is coupled to a section of the surface of the substrate. The lower surface of the second semiconductor layer is coupled to the upper surface of the first semiconductor layer to form a junction. The first electrode is directly electrically coupled to one side of the first semiconductor layer and the second electrode is directly electrically coupled to an opposite side of the second semiconductor layer. These electrodes are configured such that the lower surface of the first semiconductor layer and/or the upper surface of the second semiconductor layer are substantially unoccluded by them.
