Characterization of the electro-optical behavior of Zn2Si0.5Ge0.5O4:Mn thin-film electroluminescent devices

Zn 2 Si 0.5 Ge 0.5 O 4 : Mn was investigated as a green-emitting oxide phosphor for thin-film electroluminescent (EL) display applications. Detailed electro-optical characteristics of thin-film EL devices with SrTiO3 dielectrics on a glass substrate (TFEL) and EL devices with a single ceramic insulator (CIEL) have been analyzed. The steeper brightness–voltage dependency of the TFEL device is ascribed to the capability to provide high current …
