Abstract

A thin film electroluminescent device has a bottom substrate and a first electrode layer deposited on the bottom substrate. The first insulating layer is deposited on the first electrode layer. A phosphor layer is deposited on the first insulating layer. A second insulating layer is deposited on the phosphor layer. A second electrode layer is deposited on the second insulating layer. In one aspect of the invention, at least a portion of the first insulating layer includes a layer of aluminum titanium oxide, and at least a portion of the second insulating layer includes a layer of a fusing dielectric material. In another aspect of the invention, the first insulating layer includes a layer of a refractory metal oxide, and the second insulating layer includes a layer of a fusing dielectric material.
