Description
Summary:博士 === 元智大學 === 電機工程學系丙組 === 107 === The light propagation and extraction of photoluminescence were analyzed within the freestanding transparent polymer film embedded with the luminescent chromophore. Monte Carlo ray tracing was applied to model the effects of one-dimensional perturbations of film thickness on the luminescent emission (spatial, directional, spectral). Such modification not only enhances light extraction but also allows its location and direction to be controlled. In addition, the spectral shift and intensity of extracted emission were observed relating to the tracing distance of photon. Relying only on the relative light intensities, it provides a robust method to quantify and understand light propagation within polymer films.
