Abstract

Flexible optoelectronic has attracted many interesting for its wide application in flat panel display, sensors and logic circuits [12]. Among those applications, the polymer thin film transistor (PTFTs) is one of the key devices responsible for signal processing. A battery is a general power provider for flexible optoelectronics. However, for some niche applications, such as ultra-potable optoelectronics, multi-discrepancy sensors, electronic signage display or in vivo bio-systems, a supplementary or a permanent micro-power source is necessary to reduce weight, extend working time and keep the function working well. An integrated polymer photovoltaic (PPV) is a good micro-power candidate. In this work, a novel integration process for PTFTs and PPV with the same layer structure is demonstrated. The schematic structure for the integrated PTFTs and PPV was shown in Fig.1.
