1. A device comprising:
- a touch actuated sensor configuration integrated with an OLED structure, the device comprising;
a first substrate and a second substrate;
the first substrate having a touch actuated sensor which includes;
on a first of two sides of the first substrate, at least one of a plurality of drive lines or a plurality sense;
a metallization formed on the first of the two sides of the first substrate routed to one of the plurality of drive lines or the plurality of sense lines;
wherein the second substrate on a first of two sides includes;
a first layer comprising driving thin-film transistors;
a second layer comprising an OLE material;
a first metallization sub-layer disposed on one side of the OLE material;
a second metallization sub-layer disposed on the other side of the OLE material;
the first and second layers being and arranged so that at least some of the thin-film transistors of the first layer of the second substrate are capable of electrically driving at least a portion of the OLE material;
wherein;
the two substrates are oriented so that the second side of the first substrate and the second side of the second substrate are oppositely directed toward each other; and
the metallization formed on the first of the two sides of the first substrate is routed to one of the plurality of drive lines or the plurality of sense lines and is electrically and physically connected to a metallization (612) on the second substrate.
