TREASORES is a project concerned with cheaper production of large-area organic electronics such as lighting panels and solar cells. This will be achieved by developing materials and processes that are compatible with roll-to-roll processing technology, in particular transparent electrodes, barrier foils, and encapsulation layers.

The principal objective of TREASORES is the development and low-cost fabrication of large area transparent conducting barrier foils, and their integration into roll-to-roll produced organic electroluminescent and photovoltaic prototypes (bigger than 100 square centimetres)

To achieve this it will be necessary for the project to:

  • fabricate conductive, transparent barrier substrates using roll-to-roll processes
  • fabricate optoelectronic devices on these barrier substrates with good efficiciencies
  • to integrate effective encapsulation of these devices with roll-to-roll manufacturing (target OLED lifetime > 10000 hours)

The target efficiencies of the devices, and the scales upon which these efficiencies will be demonstrated, have been agreed with the EC, but as these figures are commercially sensitive they are not repeated here.
