Releasing the Trapped Light for Efficient Silver Nanowires‐Based White Flexible Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes

Abstract: be taken into account. One important consideration involves replacing the conventional indium-tin-oxide (ITO) due to its naturally brittle nature. [7][8][9][10][11] Therefore, it is imperative to develop flexible transparent electrodes (FTEs) with high optical transparency, high electrical conductivity, good mechanical flexibility, and high processing compatibility with plastic substrates. [6][7][8] In recent years, several kinds of FTEs have been proposed as an ITO alternative, such as carbon-based conductive… Show more

“…Upon optimization of the perovskite emitter through interface-stimulated crystallization and passivation, the full potential of PeLEDs on flexible plastic was further exploited by replacing the brittle ITO with an alternate FTE. Among several kinds of widely developed FTEs ( e.g ., graphene, metallic nanostructures, metal/dielectric multilayer), AgNWs are a promising candidate due to their form-factor advantages such as superior mechanical flexibility, electrical conductivity, optical transparency, chemical stability, and scalable solution processability. Particularly, combining AgNWs with a light outcoupling scheme holds a great potential for achieving highly efficient flexible PeLEDs on plastic substrates, which altogether eliminates the use of ITO and allows the outcoupling enhancement for the waveguided light. , Here, a composite electrode architecture consisting of randomly distributed AgNWs and sol–gel-derived zinc oxide (ZnO) film (AgNWs/ZnO) is built as a FTE in PeLEDs on flexible plastic. Figure a illustrates the schematic of the flexible PeLED device structure constructed with a nanopatterned AgNWs/ZnO FTE on a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate.…”

“…the required minimum FOM value [35]. Figure 2g shows the transmittance (at 550 nm) versus R SH of the 30-and 50-nm Ni-ITO (solid star symbols) in comparison with those of the various types of transparent electrodes reported in the literature [6][7][8][9][36][37][38][39][40]. All m-TCOs (ITO, AZO, FTO) studied here yielded FOM values ranging from 79 to 194 (Fig.…”

“…Modern energy conversion devices, including organic/inorganic solar cells [1] and light-emitting diodes [2], require innovative thin transparent electrodes with high electrical conductivity and optical transparency. To satisfy the growing demand for advanced transparent electrodes, transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) such as indium tin oxide (ITO) [3], aluminum-doped ZnO (AZO) [4], and fluorine-doped SnO (FTO) [5] have been developed, along with various types of transparent electrodes such as metal nanomesh [6], metal nanowire [7], conductive polymer [8], and graphene [9] over the past several decades. However, most conventional TCOs are n-type owing to localized oxygen, which impedes band alignment and charge balance when they are used as p-electrodes of such devices [10], thereby resulting in low quantum efficiency.…”

“…Development of efficient water and oxygen barrier films will advance the use of plastic substrates. Examples of studied various plastic substrates for different applications include polyethersulfone (PES) [135], polycarbonate (PC) [116,136], polyethylene terephthalate (PET) [116,[137][138][139][140][141], polyimide (PI) [55,[142][143][144][145]) (colorless PI, n = 1.63), and the n = 1.56 Norland optical adhesive NOA63 [146].…”
