ABSTRACT:
Packages for elements, e.g., OLEDs, that are temperature sensitive are provided. The packages have a first glass substrate (12), a second glass substrate (16), and a wall (14) that separates the first and second substrates (12,16) and hermetically seals at least one temperature sensitive element (18,28,36) between the substrates (12,16). The wall (14) comprises a sintered frit and at least a portion of the wall is laser sealed to the second substrate (16) by melting a glass component of the sintered frit. The minimum width (40) of the laser-sealed portion of the wall (14) at any location along the wall (14) is greater than or equal to 2 millimeters so as to provide greater hermeticity and strength to the package. The laser sealing is performed without substantially degrading the temperature sensitive element(s) (18,28,36) housed in the package.
