OLED-Info reports that the demonstrator, produced in a collaboration under the Nomad project, is a step towards replacing the brittle and relatively expensive ITO materials typically used as a conductive layer in OLEDs.
The use of ITO has been considered an issue for OLEDs, particularly for displays and touchscreens, for some time. The material does not lend itself to the cheap and flexible devices being designed in OLED R&D.
