or continuous film the continuous film is used for example for roll to roll manufacturing processes which are particularly suited for plastic metal and metallized plastic foils in the bottom emitting configuration the first electrode 211 functions as an anode the anode is a conductive layer which serves as a hole injecting layer typical anode materials include metals such as platinum gold palladium indium and the like metal oxides such as lead oxide tin oxide indium tin oxide and the like graphite doped inorganic semiconductors such as silicon germanium gallium arsenide and the like and doped conducting polymers such as polyaniline polypyrrole polythiophene and the like preferably the first electrode 211 is comprised of indium tin oxide ito the first electrode 211 is preferably transparent or semi transparent to the wavelength of light generated by the oled device 205 preferably the thickness of the first electrode 211 is from about 10 nanometers u201c nm u201d to about 1000 nm more preferably from about 50 nm to about 200 nm and most preferably is about 100 nm to 150 nm the first electrode layer 211 can typically be fabricated using any of the techniques known in the art for deposition of thin films including for example vacuum evaporation sputtering electron beam deposition or chemical vapor deposition using for example pure metals or alloys or other film precursors the abl 215 has good hole conducting properties and is used to effectively inject holes from the first electrode 211 to the eml 216 the abl 215.
