Abstract:

Previous and current approaches to alternating current thin-film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) device physics modeling are reviewed. The primary goal of the modeling efforts of interest to this review is to accurately simulate the electrical properties of two-terminal ACTFEL test structures when subjected to realistic applied voltage waveforms. A comprehensive review of previous ACTFEL modeling efforts is presented. Additionally, two modeling methodologies that are believed to hold the most promise for accurate ACTFEL device modeling are presented. These methodologies involve state-space simulation of a discretized phosphor and SPICE simulation.
