  • Patent number: 8067890
    Abstract: An organic electroluminescence structure comprises a first substrate, an organic electroluminescence device, and a control device. Forming either a lifting layer under the control device or a recess under the organic electroluminescence device, or forming both of them, creates a difference between their tops, in order to reduce the dark spots and promote the yield of the end product. The lifting layer preferably has a thickness greater than about 0.5 micro meters and the recess has a depth ranges of about 0.1 micro meters to about 100 micro meters. Alternatively, the height difference between the upper surfaces of the control device and the organic electroluminescence device is controlled to be greater than about 2 micro meters or substantially equal to 2 micro meters.

  • Publication number: 20070131944
    Abstract: A dual display unit comprising two OLED displays separately fabricated on two substrates. Each of the substrates has a peripheral area surrounding the respective display. A getter element is provided on one or both peripheral areas, substantially surrounding both the displays, for absorbing harmful gaseous elements in the display unit. A sealing material is applied along the edges of the two substrates enclosing the getter element so as to form a hermetic seal to the OLED displays. One or more further getter layers can be disposed between the first and second displays. The sealing material has a thickness sufficient to leave an air gap between the first display and the second display.
