Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nowadays, organic electronic devices are not only used in laboratories but have also been commercialized. The main advantages of organic electronic devices are that they are thin, light weight, and flexible. Still, there are concerns regarding their durability and reliability. However, some of them are better than before due to the development of materials and well-reported fabrication protocols.

In this Special Issue, we focus on the integration or convergence of organic electronic devices for new applications, such as biomedical devices, health care devices, environmental monitoring sensors, self-powered IoT (Internet of Things) devices, and new portable electronic devices. The concept of high-performance organic electronic devices and research tools/platforms based on organic electronic devices is welcome. We also discuss new equipment and fabrication methods for organic electronic devices. Review and original research papers are welcome.

The key characteristics of bending sensors are piezoresistive effect, hysteresis, and durability.

The key characteristics of bending sensors are piezoresistive effect, hysteresis, and durability. In this study, to investigate the influence of the aspect ratio and contents of multi-walled nanotubes (MWNTs) on the properties of bending sensors, MWNT/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composites were fabricated with various aspect ratios and filler contents. The MWNTs were uniformly dispersed in the composites using the three-roll milling method. By increasing the bending angle gradually, the sensitivity of each composite was analyzed. Furthermore, discontinuous cyclic bending tests were conducted to investigate the piezoresistive effect and hysteresis. In addition, stable repeatability of the composites was confirmed through continuous cyclic bending tests. As a result, optimal aspect ratios and filler contents have been presented for application in bending sensors of MWNT composites. Full article

Nowadays, the display industry is endeavoring to develop technology to provide large-area organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display panels with 8K or higher resolution. Although the selective deposition of organic molecules through shadow masks has proven to be the method of choice for mobile panels, it may not be so when independently defined high-resolution pixels are to be manufactured on a large substrate. This technical challenge motivated us to adopt the well-established photolithographic protocol to the OLED pixel patterning. In this study, we demonstrate the two-color OLED pixels integrated on a single substrate using a negative-tone highly fluorinated photoresist (PR) and fluorous solvents. Preliminary experiments were performed to examine the probable damaging effects of the developing and stripping processes upon a hole-transporting layer (HTL). No significant deterioration in the efficiency of the develop-processed device was observed. Efficiency of the device after lift-off was up to 72% relative to that of the reference device with no significant change in operating voltage. The procedure was repeated to successfully obtain two-color pixel arrays. Furthermore, the patterning of 15 μm green pixels was accomplished. It is expected that photolithography can provide a useful tool for the production of high-resolution large OLED displays in the near future. Full article

Abstract
We prepared the hybrid conductor of the Ag nanowire (NW) network and irregularly patterned graphene (GP) mesh with enhanced optical transmittance (~98.5%) and mechano-electric stability (ΔR/Ro: ~42.4% at 200,000 (200k) cycles) under 6.7% strain.

We prepared the hybrid conductor of the Ag nanowire (NW) network and irregularly patterned graphene (GP) mesh with enhanced optical transmittance (~98.5%) and mechano-electric stability (ΔR/Ro: ~42.4% at 200,000 (200k) cycles) under 6.7% strain. Irregularly patterned GP meshes were prepared with a bottom-side etching method using chemical etchant (HNO3). The GP mesh pattern was judiciously and easily tuned by the regulation of treatment time (0–180 min) and concentration (0–20 M) of chemical etchants. As-formed hybrid conductor of Ag NW and GP mesh exhibit enhanced/controllable electrical-optical properties and mechano-electric stabilities; hybrid conductor exhibits enhanced optical transmittance (TT = 98.5%) and improved conductivity (ΔRs: 22%) compared with that of a conventional hybrid conductor at similar TT. It is also noteworthy that our hybrid conductor shows far superior mechano-electric stability (ΔR/Ro: ~42.4% at 200k cycles; TT: ~98.5%) to that of controls (Ag NW (ΔR/Ro: ~293% at 200k cycles), Ag NW-pristine GP hybrid (ΔR/Ro: ~121% at 200k cycles)) ascribed to our unique hybrid structure.
