An elastomeric mask is provided that allows deposition of a variety of
materials through mask openings. The mask seals effectively against
substrate surfaces, allowing simple deposition from fluid phase, gas
phase, and the like or removal of material using gaseous or liquid
etchants. The mask then can be simply peeled from the surface of the
substrate leaving the patterned material behind. Multi-layered mask
techniques are described in which openings in an upper mask allow
selected openings of a lower mask to remain un-shielded, while other
openings of the lower mask are shielded. A first deposition step,
following by re-orientation of the upper mask to expose a different set
of lower mask openings, allows selective deposition of different
materials in different openings of the lower mask. Pixelated organic
electroluminescent devices are provided via the described technique.
