The overall object of this program is to develop cost effective routes to transparent conductors suitable for organic light emitting diode devices. LANL will approach this problem in three ways. Initially, they will examine known transparent conductors using the PAD system and evaluate there feasibility for cost effect production and material quality. They will also focus on the production of doped zinc oxide as a transparent conductor and develop methodologies suitable for producing this transparent conductor on glass (i.e. low temperature methods). Finally they will develop a combinatorial approach to materials development, using PAD, to search for new and better transparent conductors.
