Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201401286-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Light‐emitting electrochemical cells</bold>, featuring uniform and efficient light emission over areas of 200 cm², are fabricated under ambient air with a for‐the‐purpose developed "spray‐sintering" process. This fault‐tolerant fabrication technique can also produce multicolored emission patterns via sequential deposition of different inks based on identical solvents. Significantly, additive spray‐sintering using a mobile airbrush allows a straightforward addition of emissive function onto a wide variety of complex‐shaped surfaces, as exemplified by the realization of a light‐emitting kitchenware fork. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pghxg0j642" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
