Abstract

The shapes of the photo-resist layer 'banks' which define pockets for inkjet printing or other patterned processes are optimized to provide a more uniform drying profile for substances which are to be deposited in those pockets and dried therein. Preferably, the shapes of the banks are 'mushroom' shaped such that a portion of the photo-resist layer overhangs the exposed lower electrode layer.
