Abstract
A flexible electroluminescent lamp assembly is provided, having a plurality of films, each film including a flexible plastic substrate and at least one electrically conductive layer. In one embodiment, a first light-emitting film is arranged between two other films and includes an electroluminescent layer and a light-transmissive conductor. The second and third films provide busbar and back electrodes, respectively. Alternatively, flexible electroluminescent lamp assemblies may be produced by securing between two plastic substrates back electrode, dielectric layer, electroluminescent layer, light-transmissive conductor, and busbar in that order. The films are produce independently and then laminated together to provide a lamp assembly of indefinite or desired length.
