Electroluminescence (EL), the light emission under an applied electrical potential, is one of several key
light emitting techniques applied over a vast range of applications. Alternative Current Electroluminescent
(ACEL) is one of the major light emitting techniques discussed under EL. Even though it possesses some
intrinsic advantages over Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) and Light Emitting Cells (LEC), it has not been
thoroughly discussed like LEDs and most of the time has been kept under the shadow of LEDs. On the
other hand, flexible light emitting devices have become an emerging trend in the field as they are widely
applied in consumer electronics and wearable devices, where an ACEL technique can make a significant
impact for their development. This review discusses the ACEL technique in detail covering different device
architectures, materials and fabrication methods highlighting the use of electrospinning techniques. In the
second part, the review briefly summarizes research works in the flexible light emitting field, covering both
optical and mechanical performances.
