  • Patent number: 6433358
    Abstract: An organic light emitting device (and a method for producing the device) includes a multilayered structure with a substrate layer providing a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer and at least one light emitting organic material layer between the first and second electrode layers. The second electrode layer includes at least two separate layers. That is, a semi-transparent metal electrode layer and a light transparent lateral conductor layer is deposited onto the light emitting organic material layer by depositing the semi-transparent metal electrode layer onto the light emitting organic material layer, depositing subsequently at least one protection layer thereupon and depositing the light transparent lateral conductor layer onto the protection layer.

  • Publication number: 20020045066
    Abstract: An electrode comprises an inorganic composite layer of a mixture of at least one insulating inorganic material and at least one at least partially conducting inorganic material. In an application of such an electrode, an organic electroluminescent device comprises a first and second conductor layers. An organic layer is disposed between the first and second conductor layers. The aforementioned composite layer is disposed between the organic layer and the first conductor layer. Methods of fabricating such an electrode and such a device are also described.
