Plextronics Says Their Printable Ink Improves Performance in PLEDs

Plextronics announced today that its conductive ink has been shown to improve the performance of certain PLED devices.

Plextronics requested an independent validation from CDT. Data produced by CDT on Plextronics' behalf show improved PLED operating voltages and voltage stability compared to other solution processed HIL alternatives that have been previously reported.

For blue PLED test devices, a two volt reduction in initial operating voltage was achieved with improved voltage stability over the lifetime of the devices (less than 0.5V increase), a significant improvement over other solution processed HIL alternatives that have been previously reported. Improving voltage characteristics in PLEDs is critical to reducing the power consumption of these devices, while maintaining or improving device lifetimes.
