Abstract:
A method for fabricating a display device, said method comprising the steps of:providing an electrode layer comprising a plurality of electrodes on a substrate; immersing said electrode layer in a solution of a first precursor polymer in a first solvent, said first precursor polymer comprising a plurality of electrochemical polymerizable monomers, each monomer having first and second polymer-forming active sites that can be joined by electrochemical polymerization and third and fourth polymer-forming active sites that can be joined chemically in solution, said first precursor polymer being soluble in said first solvent whereas a polymer formed by electrochemical polymerization of said first and second polymer-forming active sites is insoluble in said first solvent; and connecting a first one of said electrodes to an electric circuit while leaving the others of said electrodes disconnected from said circuit, said circuit applying a potential to said electrode sufficient to cause said first and second polymer active sites to polymerize by electrochemical polymerization thereby depositing a first polymer layer comprising said first polymer precursor on said first one of said electrodes; and depositing a second electrode layer over said first polymer layer.
