Abstract
We have interfaced an array of polymer light emitting diodes (OLEDs) fabricated
onto a glass substrate to a sheet of paper via a pressure sensitive conducting adhesive.
By screen printing a series of capacitive touch pads and connecting tracks onto paper
using a low-cost conductive graphite ink, we are able to drive individual pixels in the
OLED array via CMOS-based electronics that are also attached to the paper. Three AA
batteries are used to power the CMOS electronics, touch pads and the OLED array, with
pixels in the array operating at a brightness of up to 210 cd/m2. The work
highlights a practical interface between plastic- and paper-based
electronics.
