Zusammenfassung:The present invention generally relates to organic light emitting diode (OLED) structures and methods for their manufacture. To increase the lifetime of an OLED structure, an encapsulating layer may be deposited over the OLED structure. The encapsulating layer may fully enclose or ''encapsulate'' the OLED structure. The encapsulating layer may have a substantially planar surface opposite to the interface between the OLED structure and the encapsulating layer. The planar surface permits successive layers to be evenly deposited over the OLED structure. The encapsulating layer reduces any oxygen penetration into the OLED structure and may increase the lifetime of the OLED structure.
