Thompson Chongwu Zhou 10.1021/nl202695v.s001 https://acs.figshare.com/articles/journal_contribution/Separated_Carbon_Nanotube_Macroelectronics_for_Active_Matrix_Organic_Light_Emitting_Diode_Displays/2587450 Active matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) display holds great potential for the next generation visual technologies due to its high light efficiency, flexibility, lightweight, and low-temperature processing. However, suitable thin-film transistors (TFTs) are required to realize the advantages of AMOLED. Preseparated, semiconducting enriched carbon nanotubes are excellent candidates for this purpose because of their excellent mobility, high percentage of semiconducting nanotubes, and room-temperature processing compatibility. Here we report, for the first time, the demonstration of AMOLED displays driven by separated nanotube thin-film transistors (SN-TFTs) including key technology components, such as large-scale high-yield fabrication of devices with superior performance, carbon nanotube film density optimization, bilayer gate dielectric for improved substrate adhesion to the deposited nanotube film, and the demonstration of monolithically integrated AMOLED display elements with 500 pixels driven by 1000 SN-TFTs. Our approach can serve as the critical foundation for future nanotube-based thin-film display electronics. 2016-02-22 16:26:02 TFT Separated Carbon Nanotube Macroelectronics nanotube film bilayer gate dielectric demonstration AMOLED display elements light efficiency transistor carbon nanotubes substrate adhesion semiconducting nanotubes carbon nanotube film density optimization AMOLED displays technology components 500 pixels
