Abstract

In this study, we tested parylene as the passivation layer for flexible organic light emitting diodes (FOLEDs).Parylene as passivtion layer has several advantages which are good optical transparent and low moisture penetration. For more an effective passivation of FOLEDs, we suggest hybrid passivation layer with parylene and silicon oxide. We compared electrical properties and stability of the device with and without passivation layer. The lifetime of FOLED with hybrid passivation layer was increased over three times than that of non-passivated of FOLED.
