Abstract
An organic light emissive device including a cathode; an anode; and an organic light emissive region between the cathode and the anode, wherein the cathode includes a transparent bilayer comprising a layer of a low work function metal having a work function of no more than 3.5 eV and a transparent layer of silver.
Claims19
A process for the manufacture of an organic light emissive device comprising:
- providing a device comprising an anode and an organic light emissive region;
- forming a cathode comprising a transparent bilayer over the light emissive region by (i) depositing a layer of a low work function metal having a work function of no more than 3.5 eV over the light emissive region and (ii) depositing a transparent silver layer on the layer of low work function metal;
- and
- depositing a transparent encapsulation layer over the bilayer in order to minimize exposure of the bilayer to oxygen and/or moisture.
