METHOD FOR ENCAPSULATING ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE DEVICES

摘要

Methods of sealing environmentally sensitive devices and vacuum insulation panels are described. One method includes: providing first and second substrates; placing the environmentally sensitive device between the first and second substrates; sealing the first and second substrates together with an adhesive, the adhesive having an exposed portion; and covering the exposed portion of the adhesive with a barrier layer, or with a barrier stack comprising at least one decoupling layer and at least one barrier layer.
