Furan: spin coater & auto-pipettes (really just needed one but got a good deal on ebay)

Furan: Emitting area is only as big as the cathode, which in this case was really small. Ruthenium-based emitter.

Furan: PFO (polyfluorene) blue emitting polymer. This one has a layer of PEDOT:PSS between the polymer and the ITO. Indium melted on the back side for cathode.
