Abstract:
There is provided a backplane for an organic electronic device. The backplane has a TFT substrate having a multiplicity of electrode structures thereon; and a bank structure defining pixel areas over the electrode structures. The bank structure is removed from and not in contact with the electrode structures by a distance of at least 0.1 microns.

There is provided a backplane for an organic electronic device. The backplane has a TFT substrate having a multiplicity of electrode structures thereon; a bank structure defining pixel areas over the electrode structures; and a thin layer of insulative inorganic material between the electrode structures and the bank structures. The bank structure is removed from and not in contact with the electrode structures by a distance of at least 0.1 microns.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes an array. In one embodiment, a process for forming an electronic device includes the array, which includes electronic components, can include printing one or more layers as a series of segments onto a workpiece. In one embodiment, a process includes printing a layer onto the workpiece and at least one exposed portion of the chuck. In still another embodiment, a printing head is greater than 0.5 mm from the workpiece. In a further embodiment, “hybrid” printing can be used to help form a thicker layer having a relatively thinner width. In a further embodiment, processes can be used to reduce the likelihood of a stitching defect, nonuniformity of a layer across an array, or a combination thereof. A printing apparatus can be modified to achieve more flexibility in liquid compositions, temperatures or other conditions used in printing a layer.
Abstract:
An electronic device made by a process that includes forming a first layer over a substrate and placing a first liquid composition over a first portion of the first layer. The first liquid composition includes at least a first guest material and a first liquid medium. The first liquid composition comes in contact with the first layer and a substantial amount of the first guest material intermixes with the first layer. An electronic device includes a substrate and a continuous first layer overlying the substrate. The continuous layer includes a first portion in which an electronic component lies and a second portion where no electronic component lies. The first portion is at least 30 nm thick and includes a first guest material, and the second portion is no more than 40 nm thick.
