ABSTRACT:
An organic electronic device structure and a method of making the same. According to a first aspect of the invention, an organic electronic device structure is provided, which comprises: (a) a substrate layer; (b) an organic electronic region disposed over the substrate layer; (c) an adhesive layer disposed over the organic electronic device; and (d) a barrier layer disposed over the adhesive layer. According to a second aspect of the present invention, an organic electronic device structure is provided, which comprises: (a) a substrate layer; (b) an organic electronic region disposed over the substrate layer; (c) a barrier layer disposed over the organic electronic region; (d) an adhesive layer disposed over the substrate layer and over the barrier layer; and (e) an additional layer disposed over the adhesive layer. According to yet another aspect of the invention, a method for providing an organic electronic device structure of provided. The method comprises: (1) providing a first region comprising (a) a substrate layer and (b) an organic electronic region provided over the substrate layer; (2) providing a second region comprising at least one additional layer; and (3) adhering the first region to the second region using a pressure sensitive adhesive layer. In many preferred embodiments, the organic electronic device region is an OLED region.
