Fully Transparent Quantum Dot Light-Emitting Diode with a Laminated Top Graphene Anode

A new method to employ graphene as top electrode was introduced, and based on that, fully transparent quantum dot light-emitting diodes (T-QLEDs) were successfully fabricated through a lamination process. We adopted the widely used wet transfer method to transfer bilayer graphene (BG) on polydimethylsiloxane/polyethylene terephthalate (PDMS/PET) substrate. The sheet resistance of graphene reduced to,,540 WO through transferring BG for 3 times on the PDMS/PET. The T-QLED has an inverted device structure of glass/indium tin oxide (ITO)/ZnO nanoparticles/(CdSSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs))/1,1-bis[(di-4tolylamitio)phenyl] cyclohexane (TAPC)/MoO3/graphene/ PDMS/PET. The graphene anode on PDMS/PET substrate can be directly laminated on the MoO3/TAPC/(CdSSe/ZnS QDs)/ZnO nanoparticles/ITO/glass, which relied on the van der Waals interaction between the graphene/PDMS and the MoO3. The transmittance of the T-QLED is 79.4% at its main electroluminescence peak wavelength of 622 run.
