Abstract
A method of fabricating an organic electroluminescent array and the array are disclosed. Column buses of indium-tin-oxide (ITO) are formed on a light transparent substrate and a resistor network is simultaneously formed of the ITO. An array of organic electroluminescent devices is formed on the column buses with each column bus connected to a terminal of each device in an associated column of devices. Row buses are formed on the organic electroluminescent devices with each row bus connected to a second terminal of each device in an associated row of devices and, simultaneously, the resistor network is connected to the row buses. The resistor network is part of a 'pull up' circuit integrally formed with the organic electroluminescent devices to dynamically reverse bias the devices and neutralize forward bias voltage of a scan of the devices.
