Abstract

The invention relates to a process for forming a structure comprising (a) providing a transparent support; (b) forming a color mask on a first side of the transparent support; (c) applying a first layer comprising a deposition inhibitor material that is sensitive to visible light; (d) patterning the first layer by exposing the first layer through the color mask with visible light to form a first pattern and developing the deposition inhibitor material to provide selected areas of the first layer effectively not having the deposition inhibitor material; and (e) depositing a second layer of functional material over the transparent support; wherein the second layer of functional material is substantially deposited only in selected areas over the transparent support not having the deposition inhibitor material.
