Electroluminescent display screen for displaying fixed and segmented patterns, and method of manufacturing such an electroluminescent display screen

A method of manufacturing an electroluminescent patterned display screen comprising:

• providing a first, transparent electrode layer on a surface of a plane substrate,
• providing a layer of insulating material in which windows exposing the first electrode layer are formed in accordance with a pattern to be displayed,
• depositing a layer of an organic electroluminescent material on the layer of insulating material and, within the windows in the layer of insulating material, on the first electrode layer, and
• depositing a second electrode layer on the layer of electroluminescent material, characterized in that, prior to depositing the layer of insulating material, the first, transparent electrode layer is first coated with a metal top layer, whereafter the layer of insulating material is provided on the metal top layer, and subsequently the windows are formed in the layer of insulating material and also in the metal top layer.
