Patents by Inventor Heiko HEPPNER

Heiko HEPPNER has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Method for producing an organic component
    Patent number: 10600999
    Abstract: According to the disclosure, a method for producing an organic component is provided. The method includes providing a carrier substrate; forming an electrically conductive layer on or above the carrier substrate; applying an electrical potential to the electrically conductive layer; and forming at least one organic, functional layer for forming the organic component on or above the electrically conductive layer at least partly during the process of applying the electrical potential to the electrically conductive layer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 15, 2016
    Date of Patent: March 24, 2020
    Assignee: OSRAM OLED GMBH
    Inventors: Heiko Heppner, Egbert Hoefling, Dieter Musa, Simon Schicktanz
  • Organic light emitting diode and arrangement having an organic light emitting diode
    Patent number: 10225933
    Abstract: In one embodiment, the organic light emitting diode (1) comprises a carrier substrate (2) having an organic layer stack for producing light. The organic light emitting diode (1) is electrically connectable via at least one connector (3) as intended. The connector (3) has two main sides (32) situated opposite one another that each have at least two electrical contact pads (31) of the connector (3) located on them. As seen in a cross section perpendicular to the main sides (32) and perpendicular to an insertion direction (x) of the connector (3), the contact pads (31) are arranged both geometrically and with electrical point symmetry, so that incorrect-polarity protection against incorrect electrical connection of the organic light emitting diode (1) is attained.
