Abstract :
Highly conductive flexible transparent polymeric anode was fabricated by inclusion of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) into aqueous poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene) : poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) system. The transmittance and conductivity of the PEDOT:PSS/SWCNTs anode was studied as a function of the SWCNTs loading. Flexible transparent anode with low sheet resistance was fabricated and organic light-emitting devices fabricated using this PEDOT:PSS/SWCNTs as the anode exhibited a close performance to that obtained using indium tin oxide (ITO) anode.
