Abstract
High performance organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) were implemented on transparent and conductive single-wall carbon nanotube sheets. At the maximum achieved brightness of 2800 cd m−2 the luminance efficiency of our carbon nanotube-based OLED is 1.4 cd A−1 which is comparable to the 1.9 cd A−1 measured for an optimized indium tin oxide anode device made under the same experimental conditions. A thin parylene buffer layer between the carbon nanotube anode and the hole transport layer is required in order to readily achieve the measured performanceKeywords
