Description
Summary:Porous nanocellulose paper was fabricated and applied as a light outcoupling medium. The nanocellulose papers were prepared using cellulose powder and a high-pressure homogenizing process. The translucent nanocellulose paper had high total transmittance and haze, and gave off diffuse light when the incident light passes through it. Through the application of the fabricated nanocellulose paper on the external surfaces of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) devices, it was possible not only to enhance the luminous efficiency but also to widen the angular light distribution. As this paper is intrinsically flexible, it can be applied to various forms of light sources bearing curvature.
