    A hybrid light source with integrated inorganic light-emitting diode and organic polymer distributed feedback grating
    (Institute of Physics Publishing Ltd., 2008) Butun, B.; Aydin, K.; Ulker, E.; Cheylan, S.; Badenes, G.; Forster, M.; Scherf, U.; Özbay, Ekmel
    We report a compact light source that incorporates a semiconductor light-emitting diode, nanostructured distributed feedback (DFB) Bragg grating and spin-coated thin conjugated polymer film. With this hybrid structure, we transferred electrically generated 390 nm ultraviolet light to an organic polymer via optical pumping and out-couple green luminescence to air through a second-order DFB grating. We demonstrate the feasibility of electrically driven, hybrid, compact light-emitting devices and lasers in the visible range.
