Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201500078-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>A novel transfer‐printing method</bold> for high‐performance all‐plastic transparent electrodes is demonstrated. A solution process using H₂SO₄ not only dramatically enhances the electrical conductivity of poly(3, 4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(4‐styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) over 4000 S cm⁻¹ but also chemically modifies its adhesion properties, thereby enabling expeditious "pick‐and‐place" transfer onto arbitrary surfaces using elastomeric stamps. Flexible and transparent optoelectronic devices with transferred PEDOT:PSS electrodes show superb performances. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgjg4ptzvf" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
