Description

Printed electronics has resulted in cheaper manufacturing of electronic devices. Moreover by using plastic substrates, flexible electronics can also be printed. With printed electronics, devices such as Organic Light Emitting Diodes(OLEDs) and Organic Photo Voltaic(OPV) has potential to change display, lighting and energy harvesting applications landscape. But the active components in these devices react with moisture and oxygen, resulting in degradation of quality. To enable long lifetime of such printed electronics devices proper encapsulation is required. This research service analyses technology trends and market opportunities of different encapsulation technologies for printed electronic devices from nine dimensions governing adoption.
