A rapid, scalable, and noninvasive lithography is reported as a pixel patterning method for large‐area flexible organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs). Effective pixel separation is achieved by highly aligned printed organic fibers with diameters from several hundreds of nanometers to approximately 1 μm. This method, developed by T.‐W. Lee and co‐workers on page 967, suggests a possible replacement of photolithography for the large‐area patterning of passive matrix OLEDs, banks in active matrix OLEDs, and grid patterns in white OLEDs.
