  • Patent number: 8772774
    Abstract: There is provided a backplane for an organic electronic device including a TFT substrate having a base substrate, a polysilicon layer, a gate dielectric layer, a gate electrode, an interlayer dielectric, and a data electrode; an insulating layer over the TFT substrate; a multiplicity of first openings in the insulating layer having a depth d1; a multiplicity of pixelated diode electrode structures, wherein a first set of diode electrode structures are in the first openings; and a bank structure defining pixel areas over the diode electrode structures; wherein the first openings and first set of diode electrode structures are in at least a first set of the pixel areas.

  • Publication number: 20090098340
    Abstract: A method for patterning metal oxides or ceramics on surfaces, and more particularly, a method of forming photonic crystals. The patterning is done using a solution coating process and a polymer-based template made by nano-imprint lithography. The methodology to pattern a sol-gel can be used to make features without the undesired scum layer. Furthermore, the patterned photonic crystals were demonstrated to efficiently increase the light extraction efficiency of solid state devices based on GaN.

  • Publication number: 20090096136
    Abstract: A stamp is comprised of a thiol-ene polymer, wherein the thiol-ene polymer allows for creation of micro-scale or nano-scale patterns useful in soft or imprint lithography. A patterned thiol-ene polymer is fabricated by casting a thiol-ene mixture onto a patterned mold, curing the thiol-ene mixture to form the patterned thiol-ene polymer, and peeling off the patterned thiol-ene polymer from the silicon mold. A stamp comprised of a thiol-ene polymer may be replicated by exposing the to oxygen plasma to form a hydrophilic mold, exposing the hydrophilic mold to a fluorinating agent under vacuum conditions to form a functionalized surface of the hydrophilic mold, casting a thiol-ene mixture on top of the functionalized surface, photocuring the thiolene mixture to form a replica thiol-ene polymer, and peeling off the replica thiol-ene polymer.
