An improved color-converting photoluminescent film that provides visible light emission in the red to green portion of the visible spectrum when excited by blue light. The color-converted photoluminescent film of the invention is patternable and has improved luminous efficiency and stability and is suitable for use in electroluminescent displays. The film comprises a mixture of a clear UV curable resin and photo-initiator which does not absorb blue light; and fluorescent pigment particles, wherein a molecular additive is optionally provided in to either or both of the pigment particles and curable resin. The mixture is screen printed onto a substrate to form a film and UV cured.

The present invention is a method for gettering undesirable atomic species from a vaporizing atmosphere during deposition of multi-element thin film phosphor compositions. The method comprises vaporizing one or more getter species immediately prior and/or simultaneously during the deposition of a phosphor film composition within a deposition chamber. The method improves the luminance and emission spectrum of phosphor materials used for full colour ac electroluminescent displays employing thick film dielectric layers with a high dielectric constant.

The present invention is an electroluminescent display that incorporates a laminated seal that inhibits exposure of display components to atmospheric contaminants and to a sealing process for fabrication of the same. The sealed electroluminescent display comprises a substrate upon which is constructed a thick dielectric electroluminescent display covered by a laminated seal comprising a lower multi-functional polymer film and an upper inorganic film that provides a barrier layer to inhibit exposure of the electroluminescent display structure to an atmospheric contaminant.

An improved smoothing layer for use with a thick film dielectric layer, and improved composite thick film dielectric structure is provided. The smoothing layer is a piezoelectric or ferroelectric material that has a reduced amount of defects. The smoothing layer is formed by the addition of surfactant to a sol gel or metal organic solution of organo metallic precursor compounds. The composite thick film dielectric structure comprises a thick film dielectric composition having a PZT smoothing layer thereon, the smoothing layer being made by a process incorporating surfactant. Both the smoothing layer and the composite thick film dielectric structure are for use in electroluminescent displays.

The present invention relates to novel thiosilicate phosphor compositions. The invention is further a physical vapor deposition method for the deposition of rare earth activated thiosilicate phosphor compositions comprising providing at least one or more source materials where the source materials may comprise a barium silicon alloy, an intermetallic barium silicon compound, a protected barium metal and combinations thereof; providing an activator species; and effecting deposition of the one or more source materials and activator species as a thin film phosphor composition on a selected substrate. The method allows for the deposition of blue thin film electroluminescent phosphors with high luminance and colors required for TV applications.
