Patent ID: 7906905

Claim:
An organic optoelectrical device comprising: a substrate; at least one first electrode disposed over the substrate; a layer of bank material disposed over the first electrode and defining a plurality of wells; a layer of organic semi-conductive material disposed in the wells; at least one second electrode disposed over the layer of organic semi-conductive material in the wells; an encapsulant disposed over the at least one second electrode; a layer of the bank material provided at a periphery of the device; and a metallic seal adhering the encapsulant to the layer of bank material at the periphery of the device, the bank material being an inorganic electrically insulating material whereby the substrate, the bank material, the metallic seal, and the encapsulant form a seal at the periphery of the device, wherein the metallic seal is made of a metallic material with a melting point less than 200° C.
