The goal of this project was to develop a novel architecture and fabrication technology for OLED substrates that will enhance light extraction efficiency and improve the uniformity and color perceptive of OLEDs, while being suitable for mass fabrication at low cost. The Phase II work will include further optimization of substrate layers, optimization of the parameters of the surface relief structure, development of technology for inexpensive roll-to-roll fabrication of OLED substrates on a flexible polymer base, and development of a set of crucial substrate parameters and the methods to control them to optimize the manufacturing process.
