Appeal 2006-2611
Application 10/356,118
37. A method of forming an organic light-emitting device having
colored pixels that produce different colored light comprising:
a) forming one or more common emissive layer(s) over two or more
different colored pixels;
b) forming a color filter array or color change module array to receive
light from the common emissive layer(s);
c) forming at least one organic layer in relationship to the common
emissive layer(s) by selectively transferring organic material from at least
one donor element to one or more different colored pixels; and
d) selecting the thickness of the organic layer(s) formed in Step c) for
one or more different colored pixels so that light produced by the common
emissive layer(s) is tuned for different colors of the color filter array or the
color change module array.
The Examiner relies upon the following references as evidence of
obviousness:
Wolk US 6,114,088 Sep. 5, 2000
Miyashita US 2001/0001050 A1 May 10, 2001
Yoneda US 6,580,214 B2 June 17, 2003
Appealed claims 2-4, and 37 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a)
as being unpatentable over Miyashita in view of Wolk. Claims 2, 4, 5, and
37 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable over
Yoneda in view of Wolk.
Appellants have not set forth separate arguments for claims 2, 3, and
5. Accordingly, claims 2, 3, and 5 stand or fall together with claim 37.
