Abstract

An organic light emitting device (OLED) has been successfully fabricated on a thin paper-like polyimide substrate (about 10 μm-thick), which is sandwiched between silicone oxide and silicone nitride films. The emission characteristics of the OLEDs, which consist of diamine derivative (α-NPD) and 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum (Alq3), are similar to those fabricated on a conventional glass substrate. Since the substrates and the OLEDs are very thin like a paper, the devices can be applicable for paper-like displays.
