Display Process Compatible Accurate Graphene Patterning For Oled Applications

Graphene film can be used as transparent electrodes in display and optoelectronic applications. However, achieving residue free graphene film pixel arrays with geometrical precision on large area has been a difficult challenge. By utilizing the liquid bridging concept, we realized photolithographic patterning of graphene film with dimensional correctness and absence of surface contaminant. On a glass substrate of 100 x 100 mm(2) size, we demonstrate our patterning method to fabricate an addressable two-color OLED module of which graphene film pixel size is 170 x 300 mu m(2). Our results strongly suggest graphene film as a serviceable component in commercial display products. The flexible and foldable display applications are expected to be main beneficiaries of our method.
