Conductive Inorganic-Organic Hybrid Distributed Bragg Reflectors

A conductive hybrid distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) is demonstrated, consisting of inorganic and organic semiconductor films and assembled by a thermal deposition technique. A maximum reflectance of 92.2% and a wide spectral width of more than 70 nm are achieved. The hybrid DBR shows good electrical conductivity, which provides the possibility of practical applications in novel optoelectronic devices, such as electrically pumped organic vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers.
