Patent ID: 8338201

Claim:
A method of manufacturing an organic light emitting device, said organic lighting device having a form factor substantially equal to or less than 900 square centimeters, said method comprising: providing one or more first substrates, wherein a surface area of said one or more first substrates is substantially equal to said form factor; a high throughput first processing of said one or more first substrates using one or more first small form factor manufacturing processes, wherein said high throughput first processing comprises at least one of cleaning said one or more first substrates, depositing a light extraction layer and depositing a first electrically conducting layer, further wherein said one or more first small form factor manufacturing processes comprise at least one of dip coating, spin coating, doctored blade, spray coating, screen printing, sputtering, glass mastering, photoresist mastering, electroforming, and evaporation; an active layer deposition processing of said one or more first substrates, wherein said active layer deposition processing comprises depositing one or more organic material layers on said one or more first substrates, wherein each of said one or more organic material layers is deposited by using a batch process; providing one or more second substrates, wherein a surface area of said one or more second substrates is substantially equal to said form factor; a high throughput second processing of said one or more second substrates using one or more second small form factor manufacturing processes, wherein said high throughput second processing comprises at least one of cleaning said one or more second substrates, depositing a second electrically conducting layer and depositing a gas absorbing chemical substance on said one or more second substrate, further wherein said one or more second form factor manufacturing processes comprise at least one of dip coating, spin coating, doctored blade, spray coating, screen printing, sputtering, glass mastering, photoresist mastering, electroforming, and evaporation; and encapsulating at least one of said one or more first substrates with at least one of said one or more second substrates to form said organic lighting device of said form factor, wherein said method of manufacturing said organic lighting device does not involve a cutting process.
