Abstract:
There is provided a process for forming a contained second layer over a first layer, including the steps: forming the first layer having a first surface energy; treating the first layer with a reactive surface-active composition to form a treated first layer having a second surface energy which is lower than the first surface energy; exposing the treated first layer with radiation; and forming the second layer. There is also provided an organic electronic device made by the process.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to electrically conductive polymer compositions, and their use in electronic devices. The compositions contain a semi-aqueous dispersion of at least one electrically conductive polymer doped with at least one highly-fluorinated acid polymer, non-conductive oxide nanoparticles, at least one high-boiling organic liquid, and at least one lower-boiling organic liquid.

Abstract:
There is provided an essentially planar test substrate for non-contact printing. The substrate has a first layer having a first surface energy and having a planar measurement portion. A liquid containment pattern is over at least the measurement portion of the first layer. The liquid containment pattern has a second surface energy that is different from the first surface energy. The measurement portion of the first layer and the liquid containment pattern together are substantially planar.
Abstract:
Emulsions comprising an active material, a solvent for dissolving the active material, and a wetting fluid, wherein the active material is sparingly soluble in the wetting fluid, are provided, and methods for making the same.
Abstract:
A process of forming an electronic device is disclosed. An organic device layer is formed. The organic device layer includes a charge-selective material and a radiation sensitizer and has a first electrical conductivity. First portions of the organic device layer are selectively exposed to radiation. The electrical conductivity of the first portions of the organic device layer is modified.

Abstract:
Compositions are provided for improved liquid deposition of electroactive material onto low surface energy layers. The liquid composition includes at least one organic electroactive material in a liquid medium. The liquid medium includes (a) at least 20% by volume, based on the total volume of the liquid medium, of a first solvent and (b) at least 1% by volume, based on the total volume of the liquid medium, of a liquid organic additive. The liquid medium pins on the underlying layer as determined by a dynamic receding contact angle test. The first solvent retracts on the underlying layer as determined by the dynamic receding contact angle test.
