报告摘要：

With the rapid development of flexible optoelectronic devices in the last two decades, electrically conductive conjugated polymers, metal nanowires and single wall carbon nanotubes as transparent electrodes have attracted great interests as potential replacements for the conventional conducting electrodes of metal oxides such as indium tin oxide (ITO). These latter materials are brittle and liable to crack when flexed. The alternatives to ITO electrodes such as electrically conducting polymers, metal nanowires and single wall carbon nanotubes have demonstrated many advantages over conventional transparent metal oxide electrodes due to excellent mechanical flexibility, low temperature processing which can be widely applied to rigid or flexible substrates such as plastics, glasses, ceramics and papers. Here, the optical and electrical characteristics of electrode materials will be presented. The high-performance optoelectronic devices including OLEDs, OPVs, organic photodiodes and OTFTs, based on such developed electrodes will be discussed.
