In this study, we show all-solution-processed quantum dot-based light-emitting devices (QD-LEDs) using graphene mono- and multilayers as transparent electrodes. Here, the effect of the number of graphene layers (up to three) on the QD-LEDs performance was studied. While the implementation of a second graphene layer was found to reduce the turn-on voltage from 2.6 to 1.8 V, a third graphene layer was observed to increase the turn-on voltage again, which is attributed to an increased roughness of the graphene layer stack. © 2015, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.EnglishCurrent densityElectrodesGrapheneLight emissionMonolithic microwave integrated circuitsMultilayersOptoelectronic devicesSemiconductor quantum dotsGraphene layersGraphene multilayersHigh electrical conductivityLight emitting devicesMono- and multilayerOptical transparencyTransparent electrodeTurn-on voltagesLight emitting diodesImplementation of graphene multilayer electrodes in quantum dot light-emitting devicesArticle10.1007/s00339-015-9304-z
