N2 - An organic diode that near-field energy transfers to molecules in solution via surface plasmon polaritons, in contrast to typical far-field excitation via absorption of traveling photons is demonstrated. Electrically generated excitons couple to surface plasmon modes in the cathode; the plasmons subsequently excite chromophore molecules on top of the cathode. External quantum efficiency and time resolved photoluminescence measurements are used to characterize the diode and the near-field energy transfer process. In addition, excited chromophores can charge-transfer to quencher molecules, illustrating the potential of this device to be used for photochemical applications is shown.
