    Abstract: Systems and methods for the design and fabrication of OLEDs (100,200), including high-performance large-area OLEDs (300), are provided. Variously described fabrication processes may be used to deposit and pattern bus lines (320,510,800A,800B,800C,2410) and/or insulators (2420) using vapor deposition such as vacuum thermal evaporation (VTE) through a shadow mask (810), and may avoid multiple photolithography steps. Bus lines (320,510,800A,800B,800C, 2410) and/or insulators (2420) may be formed with a smooth profile and a gradual sidewall transition. Such smooth profiles may, for example, reduce the probability of electrical shorting at the bus lines (320,510,800A,800B, 800C,2410). Other vapor deposition systems and methods may include, among other, sputter deposition, e-beam evaporation and chemical vapor deposition (CVD). A final profile of the bus line (320,510,800A,800B,800C,2410) and/or insulator (2420) may substantially correspond to the profile as deposited. A single OLED device (100,200,300) may also be formed with relatively large dimension, e.g. a shortest dimension in plan view of greater than approximately 2 cm, or an active area (2430) greater than approximately 10 cm 2 plan view.

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein may provide for devices comprising a digitized OLED light source (900) and/or methods of manufacturing such devices. In some embodiments, a first method may be provided. The first method may include the steps of depositing a first conductive layer (902) over a substrate (901), depositing a first organic layer (904) comprising electroluminescent material over the first conductive layer, and depositing a first patterned image layer (903) over some but not all of the first conductive layer. The first patterned image layer may locally alter the emissive properties of the first organic layer, and the shape of the first patterned image layer may be based on a non- uniform visual image. The first method may further comprise the step of depositing a second conductive layer (905) over the first organic layer.
