Thin film encapsulation for flexible AM-OLED: a review

Abstract: Flexible organic light emitting diode (OLED) will be the ultimate display technology to customers and industries in the near future but the challenges are still being unveiled one by one. Thin-film encapsulation (TFE) technology is the most demanding requirement to prevent water and oxygen permeation into flexible OLED devices. As a polymer substrate does not offer the same barrier performance as glass, the TFE should be developed on both the bottom and top side of the device layers for sufficient lifetimes. T… Show more

“…The polymer between the Al2O3 is produced by a liquid-vapor-liquid deposition and is cured with UV light. More details about this thin film encapsulation system are published elsewhere [30]. The adhesion of water within the DBR can also cause a shift of the photonic bandgap.…”

“…Additionally, disposability of OPDs and hybrid PDs is not expected to be a major problem due to potential future low cost of such devices. Moreover, encapsulation approaches to minimize adverse effects of moisture and O2 are available as was developed for OLEDs [94][95][96], which will extend the operational lifetime of the OPDs. Short wavelength irradiation is known to adversely affect solar cells [97], though this is less of an issue for OPDs that are typically exposed to lower intensity longer wavelengths.…”
