A composition suitable for fabricating an electronic device such as an OLED using an ink-jet printing technique comprises a conducting or semi-conducting organic material and a solvent, the solvent having a boiling point of greater than 250° C. and a viscosity of less than 5 cPs. The composition preferably has a viscosity in the range between 0.1 and 20 cPs, and the solvent preferably has the formula: n n n n n n n n n n n n where R represents a C 6 to C 11 alkyl. The high boiling point of the solvent allows the “ink” to remain wet for a longer time after printing. This provides better process control during drying, resulting in more uniform films and greater control over the film profile. The low viscosity of the solvent enables jetting of the composition at high frequencies. |
