To protect organic flexible devices from the ambient, they have to be encapsulated. Depending on the application in mind (OLED lighting, PV) different thin-film encapsulation methodology can be chosen. Each encapsulation process has different requirements and fabrication process freedom might be restricted, for example by mechanical reliability requirements or the total cost of the end product. Here we will show our recent investigations into different thin-film barriers with respect to their application and the route to production.
