Abstract
A method of aligning an OLED substrate with a shadow mask includes forming a shadow mask with at least three spaced alignment openings, providing a precision alignment element into each of the alignment openings, and positioning the OLED substrate so that the edges of the OLED substrate engage the precision alignment elements and thereby align the shadow mask with the OLED substrate.
Claims6
A method of aligning an OLED substrate with a shadow mask, comprising:
- a) forming a shadow mask with at least three spaced alignment openings;
- b) providing a precision alignment element into each of the alignment openings;
- and
- c) positioning the OLED substrate so that the edges of the OLED substrate engage the precision alignment elements and thereby align the shadow mask with the OLED substrate.

A method of aligning an OLED substrate with a shadow mask, comprising:
- a) forming a shadow mask with at least three spaced alignment openings and placing such shadow mask under tension into a frame;
- b) providing a precision alignment element into each of the alignment openings;
- and
- c) positioning the OLED substrate so that the edges of the OLED substrate engage the precision alignment elements and thereby align the shadow mask in the frame with the OLED substrate.
1 more element
A method of aligning an OLED substrate with a shadow mask, comprising:
- a) forming a shadow mask;
- b) providing alignment portions from the shadow mask which can precisely align the position for receiving an OLED substrate;
- and
- c) positioning the OLED substrate so that edges of the OLED substrate engage the alignment portions of the shadow mask to align the shadow mask with the OLED substrate.
