Abstract
Transparent conducting oxide (TCO) thin films have widespread applications due to their unique properties of high electrical conductivity and optical transparency in the visible spectrum range. The distinctive characteristics of the TCO films have been applied in anti-static coatings, heat mirrors, solar cells, flat panel displays, sensors, and organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). An ITO anode modified with an insulating interlayer for enhanced carrier injection in OLEDs has been demonstrated. Also, attempts are made to explore the use of ultrathin inorganic insulating layers to modify ITO in OLEDs. Current OLED technologies employ rigid substrates, such as glass, which limits the “moldability” of the device, restricting the design and spaces where OLEDs can be used. Polymer-reinforced ultrathin glass sheet is one of the alternative substrates for flexible OLEDs. The chapter discusses the results of OLEDs fabricated on flexible ultrathin glass sheet with polymer reinforcement coating and flexible plastic substrates.
