Numerical models were established to correlate with the experimentally measured properties of mesh conductors previously developed through a combined process of dip coating carbon nanotubes and inkjet printing poly 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene: poly styrene sulfonate. The electroluminescent (EL) devices assembled with such mesh conductors as front electrodes were modeled by commercially available finite element method software COMSOL Multiphysics. The modeling results are in agreement with those from the experiments and suggest that an optimized fiber arrangement is the key for further improving the performance of EL devices based on mesh conductors.
