CETEMMSA carries out research on photonic devices which respond to a certain electrical stimulus by emitting light. The research lines in this area concentrate on developing organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and electroluminescent (EL) devices employing printing techniques.
CETEMMSA is working on optimising the multi-layer structure (deposition materials and techniques) containing the electrodes and the electroluminescent substance in order to improve the luminic properties of the device. Another of its main objectives is to be able to use this type of device on flexible substrates (plastics, textiles, paper, etc.).
