A method of monitoring an OLED production process for making an OLED device is disclosed. According to the method, at least one reference OLED device similar to said OLED device is fabricated. Said at least one reference OLED device has a layered structure corresponding to said OLED device and a range of hole injection and/or transport layer thicknesses. A spectral variation of a light output of said at least one reference OLED device with respect to variation in said hole injection and/or transport layer thickness is characterized. A said OLED device is partially fabricated by depositing one or more layers comprising at least said hole injection and/or transport layer and a thickness of said one or more layers is measured such that a light output for said partially fabricated OLED device can be predicted, in a target color space, from said measuring, using said characterized spectral variation.

Organic light emitting diode fabrication with hole transport/injection layer thickness measurement

A method of making an electronic device comprising a double bank well-defining structure, which method comprises: providing an electronic substrate; depositing a first insulating material on the substrate to form a first insulating layer; depositing a second insulating material on the first insulating layer to form a second insulating layer; removing a portion of the second insulating layer to expose a portion of the first insulating layer and form a second well-defining bank; depositing a resist on the second insulating layer and on a portion of the exposed first insulating layer; removing the portion of the first insulating layer not covered by the resist, to expose a portion of the electronic substrate and form a first well-defining bank within the second well-defining bank; and removing the resist. The method can provide devices with reduced leakage currents.

Electronic device

A method of manufacturing an organic light emissive device comprising: depositing an organic light emissive layer over an anode and depositing a cathode over the organic light emissive layer, wherein the cathode comprises a trilayer structure formed by: depositing a first layer comprising an electron injecting material; depositing a second layer over the first layer, the second layer comprising a metallic material having a workfunction greater than 3.5 eV; and depositing a third layer over the second layer, the third layer comprising a metallic material having a workfunction greater than 3.5 eV.

Organic light emissive device comprising a trilayer cathode

A method of forming an optical device comprising the steps of: providing a substrate comprising a first electrode capable of injecting or accepting charge carriers of a first type; forming over the first electrode a first layer that is at least partially insoluble in a solvent by depositing a first semiconducting material that is free of cross-linkable vinyl or ethynyl groups and is, at the time of deposition, soluble in the solvent; forming a second layer in contact with the first layer and comprising a second semiconducting material by depositing a second semiconducting material from a solution in the solvent; and forming over the second layer a second electrode capable of injecting or accepting charge carriers of a second type wherein the first layer is rendered at least partially insoluble by one or more of heat, vacuum and ambient drying treatment following deposition of the first semiconducting material.
