  • Publication number: 20050266186
    Abstract: A donor element for transferring organic material to form an OLED device includes a transparent support, a first metallic layer responsive to radiation which passes through the transparent support to produce heat, a second metallic layer that is reactive to moisture or oxygen or both provided over the first metallic layer, and an organic layer having transferable organic material disposed over the second metallic layer which, in response to radiation absorbed by the first metallic layer, will cause the organic material to be transferred to an OLED device.

  • Publication number: 20050048862
    Abstract: A method of making an OLED device that corrects for potential defect(s) identified in one processing station by adjusting a subsequent processing station includes processing an OLED substrate by adding at least one organic layer and measuring in-situ one or more parameters associated with such organic layer to produce a signal representative of potential defect(s) in a produced OLED device, and adjusting in a subsequent processing station in response to the signal to change the formation of a subsequent organic layer added to the OLED device to compensate for the potential defect(s).

  • Publication number: 20050049883
    Abstract: A method of facilitating the design specification and ordering from a manufacturer of a particular display product, which is desired by a product designer, includes the product designer providing design information for a particular desired display product to a service provider; one or more display product manufacturers providing manufacturing information including current manufacturing parametric data; the service provider analyzing the design information and, based upon current manufacturing information received from one or more display product manufacturers, providing suggested design changes or design approval; and the product designer providing a payment to the service provider for services rendered.

  • Patent number: 6689550
    Abstract: A photosensitive media cartridge includes an ambient condition sensor mounted in the cartridge for sensing ambient conditions in the cartridge. When the cartridge is positioned at a media transfer position on an image-forming device that permits the conveyance of media from the cartridge to the image-forming device, image development or printing on the media in the image-forming device is controlled based on the sensed ambient conditions in the cartridge. The ambient condition sensor includes a cover layer and a conductive layer, wherein a rate of response to ambient conditions of the cover layer matches rate of response to ambient conditions of the photosensitive media to be developed. As a further option, the media itself can include a conductive layer so that the media can be the sensor.
