Abstract
A transparent or substantially transparent formable and/or flexible component for use as an outer protective element in an electronic or opto electronic device including at least one electrically active organic layer, which component is a composite structure comprising a layer of glass of a thickness less than or equal to 200 microns and a layer of plastic.

A transparent or substantially transparent formable and/or flexible component for use as an outer protective element in an electronic or optoelectronic device including at least one electrically active organic layer, which component is a composite structure comprising a layer of glass of a thickness of ≦200 μm and a layer of plastic.
An organic device comprising:
- a flexible and/or formable composite structure comprising a layer of glass of thickness of ≦200 μm and a layer of plastic;
- a transparent or substantially transparent first electrode layer overlying the composite structure;
- at least one layer of an electrically active organic material overlying the first electrode layer;
- and
- a second electrode layer overlying the layer(s) of organic material.
A method of constructing an organic device comprising:
- a) manufacturing a composite structure comprising a layer of glass thickness of ≦200 μm and a layer of plastic;
- b) depositing a transparent or substantially transparent electrode layer on the composite structure;
- c) depositing at least one electrically active organic layer;
- and
- d) depositing a second electrode layer over the organic layer(s).
