We demonstrate OLED device on ITO/Ag NW/ITO thin film on PES substrate and investigate degradation of life time. Transparent conducting layers are fabricated in three type of ITO, ITO/Ag thin film (TF)/ITO, and ITO/Ag nano wire (NW)/ITO. The total thickness of TCO layers is set to be 150 nm. Single ITO thin film shows the highest transparency of 97%, ITO/Ag NW/ITO 90%, and ITO/Ag TF/ITO is the lowest of 81%. Sheet resistance of ITO/Ag NW/ITO is reduced to be 12.74 Ω/□ compared to single ITO TF of 32.42 Ω/□. Figure of merit of Ag nano wire inserted TCO shows the best value. According to bending test, Single ITO thin film layer shows abrupt failure on just one time bending, resistance of ITO/Ag TF/ITO increases 130% at 60 times bending, but ITO/Ag NW/ITO shows only 26% increase. Double layered simple OLED device of NPB and Alq3 is fabricated and resultant device properties will be discussed.
