Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to an organic electronic device, particularly an OLED device ( 100 ), and to a method for its manufacturing. The device ( 100 ) comprises at least one functional unit (LU 1 , LU 2 , LU 3 ) with an organic layer ( 120 ). On top of this functional unit (LU 1 , LU 2 , LU 3 ), at least one inorganic encapsulation layer ( 140, 141 ) and at least one organic encapsulation layer ( 150, 151 ) are disposed in which at least one conductive line ( 161, 162 ) is embedded. In this way an OLED with a thin film encapsulation can be provided that can electrically be contacted at contact points (CL) on its back side.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for manufacturing an organic electronic device, said method comprising: producing at least one functional unit comprising an organic layer; depositing an inorganic encapsulation layer above the functional unit; depositing a structured organic encapsulation layer on top of the inorganic encapsulation layer such that at least a portion of the structured organic encapsulation layer is disposed adjacent to a lateral surface of the at least one…
