  • Ceramic barrier layers
    Patent number: 9428834
    Abstract: Forming an arrangement of two ceramic barrier layers (5, 10) on a polymeric substrate (1) includes the steps of applying a first ceramic barrier layer (5) on the substrate (1). The surface (5A) of the first barrier layer (5) is modified to introduce new nucleation sites on the surface of the first layer. A second ceramic barrier layer (10) is formed on the first barrier layer (5) using the new nucleation sites. The second ceramic barrier layer is deposited with independent nucleation sites such that a barrier stack of enhanced quality is formed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 17, 2014
    Date of Patent: August 30, 2016
    Assignee: OSRAM OLED GmbH
    Inventors: Karsten Heuser, Georg Wittmann, Guenter Gieres, Ralph Paetzold, Debora Henseler
