The wafer level technology includes batch pro-cessing, typically film substrates on a carrier. An adapted semiconductor line is used for process-ing. High resolution can be achieved by vacuum deposition and/or spin coating followed by pho-tolithography and wet or dry etching. The pro-duction cost is relatively high and the process is not compatible for conversion to in-line sheet to sheet or reel-to-reel processes.
Under hybrid technologies, we summarize com-binations of processes including large area pho-tolithography, screen printing or printed circuit board (PCB) technologies that make use of flexi-ble substrates (e.g. polymer films or paper). Depo-sition of materials happens by spin coating, blade coating or large area vacuum deposition, in some cases also partly by printing. Ink-jet print-ing and laser patterning are further technologies that are grouped in the hybrids and enable pro-duction at a medium cost level. At the moment hybrid appears to be possibly the most promising technology for further market penetration in the next few years, and it could also be combined with some amount of silicon for specific func-tions in hybrid systems.
Fully printed means continuous, automated mass-production compatible printing and coat-ing techniques (flexo, gravure, offset, slot-die,
from a large area unpatterned film, while others are additive, i. e. they only deposit material where it is wanted, e.g. by fusing a shadow mask.
There are no single standard processes in exist-ence today. Deciding which printing or other pat-terning process is used depends on the specific requirements of a particular device. In general, different processes have to be used for subse-quent steps of a multilayer device in order to optimize each process step. In an integrated product there may also be some steps in which printing processes are used at standard levels, e.g. for graphics or adhesives, and other critical ones where the highest quality standards need to be applied, e.g. for functional layers and small features. The above mentioned processes differ strongly with regard to, e.g., resolution and throughput and the feature size and throughput for some important processes at the highest quality level are shown in Figure 20.
Process Technology LevelsThe technologies that are used in organic elec-tronics range from batch, clean-room, etching based processes to mass printing processes that are capable of deposition of square meters of substrates per second. Here is a rough classifica-tion of the technologies in three different tech-nology levels:

regard to the trend from health care at clinics and hospitals to health care at home. To some extent, the future is already here, since organic and printed electronics already enables products on the health care market, such as glucose test strips, lab-on-chip products and smart blister package for pharmaceuticals.
While we focus on clusters of applications based on functions, organic electronics contributes to innovation in different industrial sectors such as automotive or health care, with products cover-ing a range of functions. For this reason, OE-A has also begun to look at these market segments, and there have already been intensive discus-sions about how organic electronics may contrib-ute to the future of health care, especially with
