Abstract :
We have investigated the stability of key electro-optical properties (Conductivity, Work Function, Transmittance) of several commonly used electrode materials for organic optoelectronics (Indium-Tin Oxide, Gold, Silver, Aluminum) in different media (Air, DI water, Phosphate Buffered Saline and Dulbecco´s Modified Eagle Medium). By comparing the electrode materials side by side, we aimed to identify their advantages and drawbacks for use in solid/liquid devices. Since many applications of such devices involve the direct contact with biological species, we also investigated their biocompatibility by evaluating cytotoxicity of HEK293 cells cultured on the candidate materials.
