LIQUID CRYSTAL POLYMER BARRIER FILMS FOR OPTOELECTRONICS

摘要

An optoelectronic structure can include a liquid crystal polymer layer and an optoelectronic device adjacent to a first surface of the liquid crystal polymer layer. The liquid crystal polymer layer can include the first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. In an embodiment, the liquid crystal polymer layer can further include a liquid crystal polymer at least partially exposed to a gas at the second surface. In another embodiment, the liquid crystal polymer may be a thermotropic liquid crystal polymer. In still another embodiment, the polymer layer can include an additive to reduce migration of a gas through the polymer layer. Methods of forming such optoelectronic structures can include melt-processing techniques.
