Abstract
The anode and cathode substrates were manufactured separately using solution processes and combined by a
lamination. We created an adhesive layer by mixing polyethyleneimine (PEI), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and D-Sorbitol
for both physical and electrical contact. To improve the luminous characteristics of the adhesive solution-processed
OLEDs, we added TPBi, BCP, and PBD into the device layers. Our results revealed that OLEDs containing the PBD
mixture achieved superior performance, reducing operating voltage by 3V, and significantly increasing current density to
1631 mA/cm² and luminance to 9665 cd/m², which are 5 and 3.5 times higher than devices without PBD.
