Abstract:
This paper presents a method for creating a light-scattering relief at the stage of formation of the lower dielectric layer of electroluminescent displays. To study the process of formation of a light-scattering relief, films with different thicknesses of the Al$_2$O$_3$ layer were fabricated, SEM images of cross-sections of the formed films were taken, and the luminous intensity angular distribution of scattered light were measured. It is demonstrated that the relief obtained at the dielectric boundary creates a light-scattering structure that improves the light extraction efficiency from the active layer of an electroluminescent display.
