OLED

Resources for making my own OLEDs/OLEPs

I'm planning to make my own OLED devices with the help of a biologist. And maybe some other things that light up too! Below are links to labs with instructions, easy-to-deal-with suppliers, and a whole lot of extra info. This page is here both as a resource for building information on how to do this, as well as a log of my own experience.

Supplies

• Reagents and other chemicals (no fuss like Sigma-Aldrich requires):
