Photonic effects in microstructured conjugated polymer films and light emitting diodes

This thesis reports an investigation into the photonic effects caused by wavelength scale micro structure patterned onto films of conjugated polymers. The efficiency of light emitting diodes (LEDs) made from conjugated polymers is limited in part by the trapping of light into waveguide modes caused...
