Abstract
There is provided herein a process for forming an encapsulated electronic device. The device has active areas and sealing areas on a substrate. The process includes providing the substrate; forming a discontinuous pattern of a material having a first surface energy on at least a portion of the sealing areas; forming multiple active layers, where at least one active layer is formed by liquid deposition from a liquid medium having a surface energy greater than the first surface energy; providing an encapsulation assembly; and bonding the encapsulation assembly to the substrate in the sealing areas. Also provided are devices formed by the disclosed processes.
