Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments described herein relate to a sub-pixel. The sub-pixel includes an anode, overhang structures, separation structures, an organic light emitting diode (OLED) material, and a cathode. The anode is defined by adjacent first pixel isolation structures (PIS) and adjacent second PIS. The overhang structures are disposed on the first PIS. The overhang structures include a second structure disposed over the first structure and an intermediate structure disposed between the second structure and the first structure. A bottom surface of the second structure extends laterally past an upper surface of the first structure. The first structure is disposed over the first PIS. Separation structures are disposed over the second PIS. The OLED material is disposed over the anode and an upper surface of the separation structures. The cathode disposed over the OLED material and an upper surface of the separation structures.
