An evaluation apparatus is taught to nondestructively characterize the electroluminescence behavior of the semiconductor-based or organic small-molecule or polymer-based light-emitting material as the finished light-emitting device functions through electroluminescence. An electrode probe is used to temporarily form a light-emitting device through forming an intimate electrical contact to the surface of the light emitting material. A testing system is provided for applying an electrical stimulus to the electrode probe and temporarily formed device and for measuring the electrical and optical/electroluminescence response to the electrical stimulus. The electrical and optical properties of the light-emitting material can be nondestructively determined from the measured response. Optionally a light stimulus is used to perform the photoluminescence characterization together with the electroluminescence characterization, and both characterizations can be performed at the same sample location or/and at the wafer level.
