Abstract: A full-color active matrix organic light-emitting color display panel is disclosed which has an integrated shadow mask structure for patterning arrays of color subpixels. The in-situ shadow mask structure is prepatterned on the display substrate by conventional photolithography, and provides a simple, self-alignment feature for successive deposition of color organic electroluminescent (EL) media on designated color subpixel areas. The pillar structure of the shadow mask are particularly effective in the fabrication of high-resolution full-color organic light-emitting diode displays having either color conversion layers or individual red, green, and blue emissive layers.

Abstract: There is disclosed a recordable optical element that has a substrate and on the surface of the substrate, a recording layer and a light reflecting layer. The recording layer has a material with the formula TeaGebCcHdOe wherein a, b, c, d, and e are atomic percents and (c+d)>40, d>10, a>5, b>5, and e≧0 such that a+b+c+d+e=100; and the reflecting layer and the recording layer being selected such that the element Rmax or Rmin (element reflectivity) is about or greater than 70% at about 780 nm.

Abstract: Methods of making a full-color organic light-emitting display are disclosed. The methods include ink-jet printing of fluorescent dopants selected to produce red, green, or blue light emission from designated subpixels of the display. The dopants are printed sequentially from ink-jet printing compositions which permit printing of dopant layers over a light-emitting layer containing a host material selected to provide host light emission in a blue spectral region. The dopants are diffused from the dopant layer into the light-emitting layer by exposing the light-emitting layer and the dopant layers to vapor of a fluid or fluid mixture. When an ink-jet printing composition is formulated with a printing fluid having fluid vapors which promote dopant diffusion, the steps of ink-jet printing and diffusing of dopants can be combined to form a selectively doped light-emitting layer.

Abstract: A method of making an organic light-emitting device is disclosed in which a dopant layer is formed adjacent to a light-emitting layer containing a light-emitting host material. The dopant is diffused from the dopant layer into the light-emitting layer by exposing the light-emitting layer and the dopant layer to vapor of a fluid or fluid mixture. The method permits doping of a light-emitting layer with one dopant or with multiple dopants so as to modify the color and efficiency of light emitted from the light-emitting layer.

Abstract: For an optical recordable disk, a heat conductive gold layer can be deposited on a phase-change recordable layer to increase the writing threshold. This higher threshold improves the data stability during readout. However, it has been found that there is substantial inter-diffusion between the phase-change layer and the gold layer. The performance is degraded as a result. A barrier layer between the phase-change layer and the gold layer can effectively prevent diffusion and mixing. Using his barrier, the performance is preserved and the data stability is improved.
