These functional films comprise ultra-high permeation barrier performance and two different types of a transparent electrode. Flexible small molecule OLED devices have been manufactured in roll-to-roll and characterized discussing current challenges for flexible electronic device encapsulation.en668664620667670688Roll-to-roll manufacturing of functional substrates and encapsulation films for organic electronics: Technologies and challengesjournal article
