Abstract

An organic electronic device includes electronic components within an array. In one embodiment, the organic electronic device includes a substrate and a first conductive member overlying the substrate and lying at least partly within the array. The first conductive member is at least part of a first power transmission line. The organic electronic device further includes a second conductive member overlying the substrate and lying at least partly within the array. The second conductive member is at least part of a first electrode and is electrically connected to the first conductive member. In another embodiment, an organic active layer has at least a portion lying between the first and second conductive members. In yet another embodiment, a process for using an organic electronic device including an array of radiation-emitting components allows radiation to be emitted from the array at an intensity of at least 1100 cd/m2.
