Abstract

In this paper, previous and current approaches to alternating current thin-film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) device physics modeling are reviewed. Our aim of modeling of ACTFEL device is to accurately simulate the electrical properties of two-terminal ACTFEL test structures when subjected to realistic applied voltage waveforms. Additionally, modeling method that is believed to hold the most promise for accurate ACTFEL device modeling is presented. In this paper, a series of simple-to-complex models for device operation are offered that are useful for analysis in applications.
