  • Patent number: 5902677
    Abstract: An organic electroluminescent display device (10) includes a plurality of organic layers (16, 18, and 20) disposed between opposing electrode assemblies (12 and 14). One electrode assembly (12), the anode assembly, is fabricated of a substrate (22) and electrode (24), and a layer of a compensating material (26) disposed between electrode (24) and the overlying layers of light emitting materials (16, 18, 20). Layer (26) compensates for physical mismatches between the inorganic electrode layer (24) and the organic light emitting layers (16, 18, 20).

  • Patent number: 5888662
    Abstract: An organic electroluminescent display device (10) includes a plurality of organic layers (16, 18, and 20) disposed between opposing electrode assemblies (12 and 14). One electrode assembly, for example the anode assembly (12), may be fabricated of a substrate (22) and an electrode (24), wherein the electrode is modified by the addition of a modifier species. The modifier species compensates for mismatches between the electrode layer and the overlaying organic material layers which are respectively hydrophilic and hydrophobic. The modifier is preferably a silane or disilane material.

  • Patent number: 5817431
    Abstract: An organic electroluminescent display device (10) includes a plurality of organic layers (16, 18, 20, 22 and 24) disposed between opposing electrodes (14 and 26). The electron injecting layer (24) is characterized by the formula: ##STR1## wherein M is a metal ion, and may be selected from the group consisting of Zn.sup.2+, Mg.sup.2+, Be.sup.2+, Al.sup.3+, and Ga.sup.3+ ; X=2 or 3; and R.sub.1 to R.sub.8 represent functional groups selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydrocarbon groups or functional groups such as cyano, halides, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, alkoxyl, amido, amino, sulfonyl, carbonyl, carbonyloxy, oxycarbonyl, and combinations thereof.

  • Patent number: 5773931
    Abstract: An organic electroluminescent light emitting display device includes layers of organic electroluminescent material (24) (28) disposed between electrodes (12), (34) (38) for emitting an optical effect. The layers (24) (28) provide discrete electroluminescent pixels which are electrically isolated from one another by wall structures (16) (18) (20). The wall structures are preferably fabricated of dielectric materials. Further, the wall structures are characterized by the width in which a middle portion thereof is narrower than the top portion or the base portion.

  • Patent number: 5747183
    Abstract: An organic electroluminescent display device (10) includes first and second electrode assemblies fabricated on a transparent substrates (12). Disposed between the electrode assemblies are one or more layers of organic electroluminescent light emitting materials (20). The organic electroluminescent light emitting material is preferably characterized by an emitted light having a wavelength of between 4000 .ANG. and 6000 .ANG.. This light emitting material may be comprised of a mixture of a first host emitting material and a second host emitting material, and may further include a dopant so as to improve the emission efficiency of the light emitting material as well as to adjust the emission characteristic to a desired specification.

  • Patent number: 5705285
    Abstract: An organic electroluminescent display device includes a plurality of pixels (10) including a substrate (12) upon which is disposed on a plurality of different light influencing elements, (14) (16) (18). Deposited atop each light influencing element is an organic electroluminescent display element (22) which is adapted to emit light of a preselected wavelength. A layer of an insulating, planarizing material (20) may optionally be disposed between the light influencing elements and the OED. Each of the light influencing elements is adapted to generate a different effect in response to light of a preselected incident thereon. In this way, it is possible to achieve a red, green, blue organic electroluminescent display assembly using a single organic electroluminescent display device.
