An electrically conductive film suited to use as a transparent anode, a method of forming the film, and an electronic device comprising the film are disclosed. The device includes a conductive polymer electrode defining first and second surfaces and having an electrical conductivity gradient between the first and second surfaces. A second electrode is spaced from the second surface by at least one organic material layer, such as a light emitting layer.

Electrically conductive polymers

The invention relates to the deposition of transparent conducting thin films, such as transparent conducting oxides (TCO) such as tin doped indium oxide (ITO) and aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO) on flexible substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The coated substrates are used to construct low cost, lightweight, flexible displays based on organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs).
