            | DESCRIPTION |  
            | Handbook
            of Luminescence, Display Materials and Devices is a major
            reference work that provides coverage on various aspects of organic
            and inorganic luminescent materials and devices. These three-volumes
            provide coverage on organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) and
            inorganic display devices including materials synthetic strategies,
            processing and fabrication methods, screening methods, spectroscopic
            characterization, energy transfer processes, luminescence in
            conjugated oligomers, polymers, nanostructured materials, carbon
            nanotubes, flexible display technologies, up-conversion phosphor
            materials and aging process, emissive displays display device
            reliability, electrode material degradation, packaging, surface
            properties, etc. The handbook has been divided into three thematic
            volumes; |
