Wrapped optoelectronic devices and methods for making same

An optoelectronic device comprising:

• a central support;
• and
• a flat panel circumferentially wrapped around the central support more than a complete turn in a spiral manner where an entire width of the flat panel fully overlaps on top of itself, the flat panel comprising:
• a substrate;
• a semi-transparent first conductive layer disposed over the substrate;
• a semi-conductive layer disposed over and in electrical communication with the first semi-transparent conductive layer;
• a second conductive layer disposed over and in electrical communication with the semi-conductive layer;
• and
• an encapsulant disposed over the second conductive layer;
• wherein layering of the semi-transparent first conductive layer, the semi-conductive layer, the second conductive layer, and the encapsulant is oriented inwardly towards the central support;
• wherein the semi-conductive layer comprises a plurality of semi-conductor regions each containing a different semi-conductor from the others semi-conductor regions, wherein the plurality of semi-conductor regions vary latitudinally relative to the central support;
• wherein the semi-transparent first conductive layer comprises a first patterning so as to form a plurality of first electrodes;
• wherein the first patterning comprises latitudinal separation of the plurality of the first electrodes relative to the central support;
• wherein the second conductive layer comprises a second patterning so as to form a plurality of second electrodes;
• wherein the plurality of the second electrodes are arranged azimuthally around the central support with azimuthal spacing relative to the central support separating the plurality of the second electrodes;
• and
• wherein the first and second patternings form a pixel array.
