摘要:
A method for controlling the deposition of an organic layer in making an organic light-emitting device includes depositing at a deposition zone organic material forming a layer of the organic light-emitting device and providing a movable sensor which, when moved into the deposition zone and is being coated during the depositing step, provides a signal representing the deposition rate and thickness of the organic material forming the layer. The method also includes controlling the deposition of the organic material in response to the signal to control the deposition rate and thickness of the deposited organic material forming the layer, moving the movable sensor from the deposition zone to a cleaning position, and removing organic material from the movable sensor to permit reuse of the movable sensor.

A method of depositing a patterned organic layer includes providing a manifold and an OLED display substrate in a chamber at reduced pressure and spaced relative to each other; providing a structure sealingly covering at least one surface of the manifold, the structure including a plurality of nozzles extending through the structure into the manifold. The method also includes delivering vaporized organic materials into the manifold, and applying an inert gas under pressure into the manifold so that the inert gas provides a viscous gas flow through each of the nozzles, such viscous gas flow transporting at least portions of the vaporized organic materials from the manifold through the nozzles to provide directed beams of the inert gas and of the vaporized organic materials and projecting the directed beams onto the OLED display substrate for depositing a pattern of an organic layer on the substrate.

A cathode structure for use in an OLED device having one or more OLED layers includes a thin light-transmissive layer having a top surface and a bottom surface and including silver (Ag) wherein the Ag acts as a conductor for the cathode structure, and a light-transmissive electron-injecting layer disposed in contact with the bottom surface of the thin light-transmissive layer and with an underlying OLED layer. The structure also includes an oxide layer disposed over the thin light-transmissive layer, and a separation layer disposed between the top surface of the thin light-transmissive layer and the oxide layer.
摘要:
Passive matrix and active matrix organic electroluminescent (EL) devices are fabricated by using a single mask which defines a deposition zone for depositing an organic EL medium layer and a cathode by directing respective vapor streams towards a substrate in the deposition zone. Electrically insulative organic shadowing structures are formed over cathode connectors for providing electrical contact between a cathode and a cathode connector in a position where the organic EL medium layer is spaced from a base of a shadowing structure. The electrical contact is achieved by directing an organic EL materials vapor stream towards the substrate in a direction substantially perpendicular to the substrate, and by directing a cathode materials vapor stream towards the substrate under a subtended angle.
