Project Objective

This project will develop an integrated plastic substrate to replace the indium tin oxide transparent anode, glass substrate, internal and external light extraction structures for the fabrication of organic light emitting diodes with improved energy efficiency and reduced manufacture cost when scaled up in production. The effort will focus on the synthesis and iteration of the integrated substrate to match the sheet resistance and surface smoothness of high-grade ITO/glass, but with a 200% enhancement of light extraction.
