Binary‐Solvent‐Programmed Single‐Step Inkjet Printing of Self‐Confined Micro‐Inlaid OLED Arrays

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Solvent‐programmed micro‐inlay inkjet printing enables lithography‐free, high‐resolution μ‐OLED arrays in a single step. A thermodynamically tuned 3:1 (w/w) chloroform/dichloroethane blend not only drives interfacial phase separation between the solute and polymers but also stabilizes droplet ejection, forming rim‐confined emissive domains in one pass.
