Patent number: 8110827Abstract: A light emitting device includes a stack of layers of a substrate, with a basic layer, first and second electrode layers, and an organic light-emitting layer which is sandwiched between the first and the second electrode layers. At least a part of the basic layer is covered by a shielding structure that includes a plurality of lamella elements that extend sheet-like from the stack of layers in such a way, that the lamella elements guide light out of the light emitting device.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2008Date of Patent: February 7, 2012Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Conrad Wilhelmus Adriaan Verjans, Dietrich Bertram

Patent number: 7766687Abstract: A connector connects first electrodes of circuits to pair of cables having different sizes, such as different sized conductors or different sized insulators around same sized conductors. The connector has two parts connected by a hinge. The two parts include recesses that form two different sized openings in a closed position of the connector, for receiving the different sized cables in a non-interchangeable way. Forks or pins of different sizes stick out from the recesses for contacting the conductors of the cables.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2007Date of Patent: August 3, 2010Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N VInventors: Conrad Wilhelmus Adriaan Verjans, Dietrich Bertram
