24 Summary Demands for transparent electrode; damage free deposition, device performance and low cost process are important. Ag film have high superiority of electrical conductance and optical transmittance. We demonstrate the enhanced optical and electrical properties of an ultrathin silver (Ag) film by applying an aluminum (Al) seed layer. The transparent OLED devices that employed the Al/Ag cathode showed a transmittance of 72% at a 550 nm wavelength. In the micro-cavity simulation, OLED device having Ag based top and bottom electrode was obtained the maximized current efficiency. 24
