A very special measurement technique devised in the OEM group first by Dr Carsten Rothe and further evolved by Dr Fernando Dias is the absolute measurement of the singlet triplet exciton production ratio from charge recombination in a working OLED. This techniques requires simultaneous optical and electrical measurement of both singlet and triplet populations in the device made as a function of temperature. It also requires the absolute ISC rate as measured using femtosecond ground state recovery. This measurement is unique to Durham and provides the most powerful way to elucidate the photophysics of an OLED.
