As the push to create optically transparent and mechanically flexible LED displays for the next generation of portable electronic devices continues, researchers are looking for ways to conceal the internal electronics that drive these screens. Researchers have created a transparent active-matrix organic LED, with nanowire transistors as the active channel material. Courtesy of Tobin J. Marks. Full-colored active-matrix organic LED (OLED) displays have shown promise in this area, but they need transparent transistor circuitry to make them viable. Current transistor technology is either...Read full article
