How and Where to Use Electroluminescence
How and Where to Use Electroluminescence
EL provides a cool, continuous, even light that can be shaped into stripes, strips, and geometric figures. Strips can run for several meters, with only one connection to a power source. Shapes can be illuminated with different colors and with flashing, animated effects. And EL panels are lamps. They radiate gently, without glare, and can be used anywhere light is needed.
Buildings can be outlined. Entire walls can glow with light. Ceilings can become skies. Staircases can become shining sets of steps. Windowless rooms can suddenly have windows --- with views.
Add EL panels that flash, blink, stack up or stack down and the creative possibilities are endless. EL becomes an imaginative, artistic medium offering color, motion and light as tools to inspire, educate and entertain.
EL can be used with furniture, wall hangings, room trim and fixtures to uniquely enhance the appearance of any space.
EL will highlight a product or advertising message more effectively than any other form of light. Company logos or advertising displays will leap towards customers, compelling their attention to the image and the message.
EL designs are used in products such as toys, novelties, jewelry and fashion accessories. EL patches or panels can be sewn onto shirts, skirts, pants and hats. They can be attached to backpacks, tote bags and purses. A small EL panel can be used to illuminate any small, dark area such as a locker, a purse or a make-up kit, a tool box, a tackle box or every corner of a storage compartment.
Information illuminated by EL will command attention in any environment. Warnings are clear in an emergency. Instructions stand out to anyone in a crowd. Where power supplies are limited, EL illumination can operate for months with a small battery.

TECHNOLOGY
The science behind the technology
Luminescence is achieved when the characteristics of certain substances emit absorbed energy. With a luminescent lamp you have light that is generated via radiant energy without creating temperature. The stimulation of luminescence by electricity is called electroluminescence (EL).
An organic phosphor is affixed between two conductors. When an AC signal of sufficient voltage and frequency is applied to the conductors an electric field is formed across the phosphor and causes it to emit visible light. Most of the phosphors used in the technology can only emit white or pink light. Colored overlays are used to attain additional colors.
EL was originally developed in 1936, but was not made commercially viable until the early 1990s. Since then, the technology has been refined into a high tech process that can be used on virtually any application.

ELECTROLUMINESCENCE THEORY
HOW EL WORKS
There is no recognised circuit symbol for electroluminescence material, however the symbol below is suitable and has been added to our
The way a piece of electroluminescent material gives off light is quite a complex phenomenon and is beyond the scope of this article, but knowledge of the basics will help you understand how a simple project works so you can design your own displays.
The first thing to understand is how a circuit sees a piece of electroluminescent material. It sees it as a capacitor. The resistance between the two electrodes is almost infinite and thus DC will not pass through it. But when an alternating voltage is applied, the build-up of a charge on the two surfaces, effectively produces a increasing field (called an electric field) and this causes the phosphors within the field to emit light. The increase in voltage in one direction increases the field and this causes a current to flow. The voltage then decreases and rises in the opposite direction. This also causes a current to flow. The net result is a current flows into (commonly thought of as "through") the electroluminescent panel and thus energy is delivered to the panel. This energy is converted to light via the panel and this conversion is a very efficient process since no heat is produced in the process.
This makes EL a very efficient form of illumination.
The diagram below is a very simple representation of two electrodes and a thin layer of electroluminescent material sandwiched between.
Note: each electrode is a layer of conducting material. It is so thin that light is able to pass through and be emitted to the surroundings.
Watch the sinewave
Note: light output occurs during
both the positive and negative voltages.
Electroluminescent "wire" or "cable" is constructed with a thick, stiff, inner wire surrounded by a coating of light-emitting phosphors and around this is wrapped a very fine outer wire. An outer clear plastic jacket or sheath protects the chemicals and insulates the voltages on the wire from external leakage. A cut-away view is shown below:
Electroluminescent material comes in both sheet and wire (cable) varieties. The actual construction of these products is more complex that shown above. The outer wire touches an extremely thin conducting film to produce the outer electrode so an "electric field" will be produced between the inner and outer wires.
For our discussion you can see two wires (electrodes) are present and these must be connected to a voltage source of approx 100v AC. The term AC actually means Alternating Current but it also refers to a voltage that is alternating. We use the term AC to refer to an alternating voltage source. Electroluminescent material will only give off light when an oscillating (alternating voltage) is supplied to it. It does not work on DC (DC is the voltage supplied by a battery).
HISTORY
Electroluminescence was invented in 1936 by G. Destriau when he discovered phosphors, such as copper- or manganese- doped zinc sulphide, glow when subjected to a high voltage field (typically 10,000V/cm). Original EL phosphors were deposited on glass plates. This made them very rigid, thick and delicate. Panels are now thin, flexible, plastic sheets, and can be created in almost any size and shape.
It is possible to purchase a large sheet and cut it into the desired shape. This is only recommended for experimental work or for emergency repair situations as two problems are encountered when doing this.
Firstly, the sheet must have terminating strips so you can connect to the panel, secondly, cutting the sheet produces a raw edge that can "flash-over" and produce sparks. Sometimes you can clean up the edge with the sharp knife to increase the path between the electrodes and thus reduce the occurrence of sparking. This sparking detracts considerably from the energy delivered to the panel and if the sparking produces a "track," all the energy will be lost in the "short-circuit" and the panel will reduce in brightness or fade out completely.
Once you know how to check the edge for sparking, cutting a sheet to a special shape is the first stage of developing a project.
Remember, the final sheet will have a 0.5cm border of non-illumination, to allow for the sealing between the two layers.
Sheets can also be made with more than one colour and although the layers cannot be placed on top of one another, they can be laid in strips so that a number of effects can be produced.
If three different phosphors are placed side-by-side, the final illumination is less than 33% as compared with a single colour. In addition, the cost of terminating the strips of colour is quite high.
CHANGING THE COLOUR PRODUCED BY EL
The colour produced by an EL panel can be altered by changing the frequency of the voltage supplied to it and/or the amplitude of the voltage.
The change is much greater with some colours. You need to experiment to see the effect. Some panels have almost no visible shift at all. It all depends on who manufactured the panel, its size and the type of inverter.

What is electroluminescence
Electroluminescence is a very unique property of some compounds and materials to emit light when subjected to electric potential. All electroluminescent compounds have to be photoluminescent, i.e. they emit light when excited by a light of appropriate wavelength.
How does electroluminescence work
Under the influence of the electric field, the electrons and holes (an equivalent of a cation) injected by the electrodes travel through the organic material in opposite directions. Recombination of holes and electrons in the material between electrodes causes releasing of energy that populates electrons in some compounds (electrolumophores). The relaxation of the singlet excited state in electrolumophore results in emission of light (see a nice movie on Peyghambarian group's page). Such a device capable of emitting light is called Light-Emtting Diode (OLED) or Organic Light-Emtting Diode (OLED) if the electrolumophore is an organic material.
Ini saya kasih terjemahannya :
Apa electroluminescence
Electroluminescence adalah suatu yang sangat unik dari beberapa senyawa dan bahan-bahan untuk memancarkan cahaya ketika mengalami potensial listrik. Semua senyawa electroluminescent harus photoluminescent, yaitu mereka memancarkan cahaya ketika gembira oleh panjang gelombang cahaya yang tepat.
Bagaimana cara kerja electroluminescence
Pengaruh medan listrik, elektron dan lubang (yang setara dengan kation) disuntikkan oleh elektroda perjalanan melalui bahan organik dalam arah yang berlawanan. Rekombinasi lubang dan elektron dalam materi antara elektroda menyebabkan melepaskan energi yang populates elektron dalam beberapa senyawa (electrolumophores). Relaksasi dari singlet bersemangat electrolumophore negara dalam menghasilkan emisi cahaya (lihat film yang bagus di grup Peyghambarian halaman). Alat tersebut mampu memancarkan cahaya disebut Light-Emtting Diode (OLED) atau Organic Light-Emtting Diode (OLED) jika electrolumophore adalah bahan organik.
