20120181933 | OLED LIGHTING DEVICE WITH SHORT TOLERANT STRUCTURE - A first device that may include a short tolerant structure, and methods for fabricating embodiments of the first device, are provided. A first device may include a substrate and a plurality of OLED circuit elements disposed on the substrate. Each OLED circuit element may include a fuse that is adapted to open an electrical connection in response to an electrical short in the pixel. Each OLED circuit element may comprise a pixel that may include a first electrode, a second electrode, and an organic electroluminescent (EL) material disposed between the first and the second electrodes. Each of the OLED circuit elements may not be electrically connected in series with any other of the OLED circuit elements. | 07-19-2012 |
20120286302 | Flexible Lighting Devices - A first device and methods for manufacturing the first device are provided. The first device may comprise a flexible substrate and at least one organic light emitting device (OLED) disposed over the flexible substrate. The first device may have a flexural rigidity between 10 | 11-15-2012 |
20120319553 | ORGANIC LIGHT EMITTING DEVICE WITH CONDUCTING COVER - An organic light emitting device (OLED) configured to emit light uniformly over an emitting area and a method of making the OLED are disclosed. The OLED contains a substrate, an electrode disposed over the substrate, and a light-emitting structure containing an organic material. The light-emitting structure is in contact with the electrode. The OLED contains an electrically conductive cover substantially overlaying the electrode and an electrically conductive connecting material disposed between the electrically conductive cover and the electrode. The electrically conductive material provides an electrically conductive path connecting the electrically conductive cover and the electrode. The electrically conductive cover increases the overall uniformity of emitted light from the OLED. | 12-20-2012 |
20130033185 | EXTENDABLE LIGHT SOURCE WITH VARIABLE LIGHT EMITTING AREA - Embodiments may provide an extendable light source with a variable light emitting area. A first device is provided that includes a support, a first substrate movably coupled to the support, and a plurality of lighting devices disposed on the first substrate. The plurality of lighting devices includes a first portion of lighting devices and a second portion of lighting devices. The first device also includes an energizing component that is configured to selectively energize the first portion and the second portion of lighting devices based on a position of the first substrate relative to the support. | 02-07-2013 |
20130285024 | Electronic Device with Reduced Non-Device Edge Area - A first product as disclosed herein includes multiple devices, such as OLEDs, which are moveably connected to one another. The devices may be moveable from a first position in which they are stacked, closed, rolled, or the like, to a second expanded position in which they may be usable together as a single device. Active areas of the devices may be disposed within 3 mm from each adjacent or included active area when the device is in the first position, the second position, or both. Each active device may include a barrier film that covers at least a portion of the substrate and/or the active area of one or more of the devices. | 10-31-2013 |
20140027740 | LUMINAIRE AND INDIVIDUALLY REPLACEABLE COMPONENTS - Luminaires and luminaire components are provided that may include emissive, index-matching, and/or outcoupling components that are replaceable separately from other components of the luminaire. In some embodiments, an index-matching component may include a gel sheet or pad that can be disposed between an emissive component and an outcoupling component. The index-matching component may be replaceable separately from the emissive and outcoupling components. In some embodiments, an emissive component including an OLED panel and/or an index-matching component may be replaceable separately from other components of the luminaire. | 01-30-2014 |
20140248727 | Flexible Lighting Devices - A first device and methods for manufacturing the first device are provided. The first device may comprise a flexible substrate and at least one organic light emitting device (OLED) disposed over the flexible substrate. The first device may have a flexural rigidity between 10 | 09-04-2014 |
20140339987 | LARGE AREA LIGHTING SYSTEM WITH WIRELESS CONTROL - Sensors and lighting components are provided that are capable of matching an emitted color to a color observed at a remote location. The sensor measures a light characteristic at a first location, and provides data to a remote lighting component, such as via a wireless connection. The lighting component is configured to emit light based upon the light characteristic, and thus is able to match an observed lighting condition. The lighting component may match the color, intensity, temperature, pattern, texture, or other characteristic of light at a remote location. | 11-20-2014 |
20140340901 | MACRO-IMAGE OLED LIGHTING SYSTEM - Techniques to fabricate and assemble a lighting system including multiple patterned OLED lighting panels to form a high-resolution macro image are provided. An image to be displayed is determined and divided into multiple portions. Patterned static OLED lighting panels that display each portion of the image are fabricated and assembled into a fixture to form a macro-image lighting system. The fixture may removably receive and hold individual panels, such that each panel may be replaced if any malfunction occurs. Each of the patterned OLED panels may be individually driven through an electrical connection within the fixture so as to be operated at substantially the same brightness and/or same chromaticity. | 11-20-2014 |
