OLED device having spacers
First Claim
1. An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) device, comprising:
- a substrate;
one or more OLEDs formed on the substrate comprising a first electrode formed over the substrate, one or more layers of organic material, one of which emits light, formed over the first electrode, and a second electrode formed over the one or more layers of organic material;
a cover provided over the OLEDs and spaced apart from the OLEDs to form a gap; and
one or more color filter elements located in the gap to filter the light;
wherein the gap is unfilled or filled with an inert gas air, nitrogen or argon, and at least portions of one color filter element or layered combinations of two or more color filter elements form spacer elements having a thickness more than 500 nm greater than the thickness of at least another portion of a color filter element located in the gap.

6. An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) device, comprising:
-
a substrate, one or more OLEDs formed on the substrate comprising a first electrode formed over the substrate, one or more layers of organic material one of which emits light, formed over the first electrode, and a second electrode formed over the one or more layers of organic material;
a cover provided over the OLEDs and spaced apart from the OLEDs to form a gap; and
one or more color filter elements located in the gap to filter the light;
wherein at least portions of one color filter element or layered combinations of two or more color filter elements form spacer elements having a thickness greater than the thickness of at least another portion of a color filter element located in the gap and wherein the spacer elements comprise two or more same colored color filters that overlap in the light emitting area over one of the OLEDs.
