Abstract
Flexibility, certain mechanical strength, and color modulation are significant elements for flexible optoelectronic devices. However, it is laborious to fabricate a flexible electroluminescent device with balanceable flexibility and color modulation. Here, we mix a conductive nonopaque hydrogel and phosphors to fabricate a flexible alternating current electroluminescence (ACEL) device with color modulation ability. This device realizes flexible strain based on polydimethylsiloxane and carboxymethyl cellulose/polyvinyl alcohol ionic conductive hydrogel. The color modulation ability is achieved by varying the voltage frequency applied on the electroluminescent phosphors. The color modulation could realize blue and white light modulation. Our electroluminescent device exhibits great potential in artificial flexible optoelectronics.
