Abstract

A method of compacting moisture-sensitive organic material adaptable for making an organic layer on a structure which will form part of an organic light-emitting device, includes placing such a desiccant material in a powder form inside a die cavity and applying a pressure to such a desiccant powder in the die cavity sufficient to compact into a porous desiccant bed; providing moisture-sensitive organic material in a powder form; and placing such moisture-sensitive organic material inside the die cavity over the porous desiccant bed, and applying sufficient heat to the moisture-sensitive organic material in the die cavity to cause moisture to escape from the moisture-sensitive organic material and be absorbed by the porous desiccant bed, and then applying sufficient pressure to compact the moisture-sensitive organic material into a solid organic pellet.
