摘要 |
A method for protecting an electro-optical device includes the steps of providing an electro-optical device including a first electrode, a second electrode, and an emitting layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, where at least one of the electrodes is optically transparent; and sealing at least a portion of the electro-optical device within a casing formed of a fluoropolymer, preferably a polychlorotrifluoroethylene film. Where the electro-optical device is provided with at least one wire lead extending from a peripheral portion of the electro-optical device, the method includes the step of protecting the wire lead from detrimental environmental conditions using a fluoropolymer. An environmentally sealed electro-optical device is also provided, including an electro-optical device and a fluoropolymer, preferably a polychlorotrifluoroethylene film, protecting at least a portion of the electro-optical device.
