Patent ID: 6878297

Claim:
A method for forming an optoelectronic device comprising the steps of: providing a substrate having a patterned first electrode on a surface thereof; providing a holed layer on the surface of the substrate having the first patterned electrode, the holed layer being permanently attached to the substrate and defining a first set of holes through which the patterned first electrode is exposed; applying a first light-emissive material to the surface of the holed layer opposite the substrate; displacing the first light-emissive material in fluid form across the surface of the holed layer so as to selectively deposit the material only in the first set of holes of the holed layer; solidifying the first light-emissive material; and forming a second electrode on the solidified first light-emissive material in the first set of holes such that charge carriers can move between the first light-emissive material and the second electrode.
