FLEXIBLE DEVICES INCLUDING SEMICONDUCTOR NANOCRYSTALS, ARRAYS, AND METHODS

摘要

The present invention relates to flexible devices including semiconductor nanocrystals, arrays including such devices, systems including the foregoing, and related methods. In one embodiment, a flexible light-emitting device includes a flexible substrate including a first electrode, an emissive layer comprising semiconductor nanocrystals disposed over the substrate, and second electrode disposed over the emissive layer comprising semiconductor nanocrystals, wherein, when the device is curved, the emissive layer comprising semiconductor nanocrystals lies substantially in the neutral plane of the device. In another embodiment, a light-emitting device includes an emissive layer comprising semiconductor nanocrystals disposed between two flexible substrates, a first electrode disposed over the emissive layer comprising semiconductor nanocrystals, and a second electrode disposed under the emissive layer comprising semiconductor nanocrystals. In certain preferred embodiments, at least one charge transport layer is disposed between one of the electrodes and the layer comprising semiconductor nanocrystals.
