Abstract
We use e-beam lithography to pattern an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode to create arrays of conjugated-polymer LEDs, each of which has a hole-injecting contact limited to 100 nm in diameter. Using optical microscopy, we estimate that the electroluminescence from a 100 nm diameter LED comes from a region characterized by a diameter of approximately 170 nm. This apparent broadening occurs due to current spreading within a PEDOT:PSS layer which was included to aid hole injection.
