     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT 
       [0034]    The present invention is further explained with detail according to the accompanying drawings. 
         [0035]    Referring to  FIG. 1  of the drawings, the present invention provides an active matrix organic electroluminescence device comprising a thin-film transistor  1 , an interlayer  2  deposited on a surface of the thin-film transistor, and an organic electroluminescence device  3  placed on a surface of the interlayer  2 . 
         [0036]    The thin-film transistor  1  supports the interlayer  2  and the organic electroluminescence device  3 . The thin-film transistor  1  has the ability to prevent steam and oxygen from penetrating therethrough, and has good chemical stability and thermal stability. 
         [0037]    The interlayer  2  of the present invention between the organic electroluminescence device and the driving circuit is with good properties of smoothness, insulation and adhesive. The interlayer  2  adopts organic adhesive materials. 
         [0038]    The organic electroluminescence device  3  of the present invention adopts organic electroluminescence device capable of emitting light of all kinds of colors. 
         [0039]    As shown in  FIG. 2 , a first interlayer  21  of the present invention adopts an ultraviolet-curing adhesive deposited on the thin-film transistor  1 . A second interlayer  22  of the present invention adopts an adhesive deposited on the first interlayer  21 , which has the same or different components concentrations and thickness from the ultraviolet-curing adhesive used in the first interlayer  21 . 
         [0040]    The components of the interlayer of the present invention are illustrated hereinafter. 
         [0041]    The principle of the cationic ultraviolet-curing system is that the aromatic diazoium salt, aromatic iodonium salt, aromatic sulfonium salt can produce protonic acid, when irradiated by ultraviolet light, and the protonic acid initiates the cationic polymerization of monomer. In the cationic ultraviolet-curing system, the curing shrinkage rate is smaller comparing to the free radical cure system. Furthermore, the cationic ultraviolet-curing system does not have polymerization retardation, and if there is no nucleophilic impurity, once initiated, the polymerization will carry on for a long time. But the photoinitiator, when irradiated by light, will release protonic acid that will erode the cementitious substrate. Theoretically, all the monomer that can be processed by the cationic polymerization can be used for cationic cure. However, the commonly used monomer is all kinds of epoxy resin or modified epoxy resin. All kinds of active epoxy resin diluting agent and all kinds of cyclic ether, macrolide, and vinyl ether resin monomers can be used as diluting agent of the photocuring resin. Cationic photoinitiator comprises diaryliodonium salt, triaryl iodonium salt, triarylsulfonium salt, triarylselenium salt, and so on. At present, many researches on this system are done. For example, it is reported that fluorine-containing mixed resin and no fluorine-containing mixed resin are initiated by the cationic photoinitiator to produce accurate adhesive with low shrinkage rate and adjustable refractive rate. The adhesive produced by the epoxy initiated by the cationic is not eroded under 85° C. and 95% relative humidity for 96 hours. The aliphatic series and bisphenol D mixed epoxy resin initiated by sulfonium salt can produce adhesive with low expansion coefficient and good moisture resistance.
       1. Diphenyl (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) phosphine oxide (TPO)   2. Iron Arene Salts, organic Aluminium Complex/silane system, Dialkyl benzoic methyl Triarylsulfonium salt   3. Triarylsulfonium hexafluorophosphate cationic photoinitiator, Tungoil Modified Phenolic Epoxy (TMPE) Resin, and E-44 epoxy resin       
 
         [0045]    The effects on curing rate under various conditions via the test of gelling rate are studied, and the film structure before and after the photo curing reaction are analyzed via infra-red spectrum. The results show that the category and concentration of the photo initiator can effectively change the curing rate. The activity of 10-(4-Biphenylcarbonyl)-2-isopropyl-9-thioxanthen hexafluorophosphate (Omnicat 550) and 13, 6-Dipentaerythritol ethoxide and 10-(2-carboxymethoxyl-4-Biphenylcarbonyl)-2-isopropyl-9-thioxanthen hexafluorophosphate (Omnicat 650) is better than 4,4-dimethyl-diphenyl liodonium hexafluorophosphate (Omnicat 440), and the activity is directly proportional to the concentration. Photosensitizer such as Anthracene, benzoperoxide (BPO) and so on has photosensitization to the system, but the phenothiazine does not have much photosensitization. Different types of epoxy and Vinyl Ethers active diluting agent have great influence on curing rate. The increasing of concentration of epoxide group will increase the curing rate. There is post-curing phenomenon in this system.

       [0107]    As shown in  FIG. 1 , the organic electroluminescence device  3  is embodied as a multicolor organic electroluminescence device. The interlayer  2  adopts single layer ultraviolet-curing adhesive. The thin-film transistor  1  is an active matrix driving circuit. 
         [0108]    The method of manufacture comprises steps of: 
         [0109]    (a) ultrasonic cleaning an organic electroluminescence device with scouring agent, acetone solvent, ethanol solvent, and deionized water, and drying the organic electroluminescence device by blowing nitrogen thereto; 
         [0110]    (b) preparing a thin-film transistor on a processed substrate; 
         [0111]    (c) stirring an adhesive material diluted by ethanol for 20 hours forming a mixture, wherein adhesive material: ethanol is 1:9, applying the mixture onto a surface of the thin-film transistor in a spinning manner for a minute forming a interlayer, wherein the spinning rate is 1000 rounds per second and the thickness of the interlayer is 150 nm; 
         [0112]    (d) curing the interlayer with ultraviolet for 30 seconds; 
         [0113]    (e) photoetching the interlayer forming a pattern thereon;

         [0115]    (g) curing the organic electroluminescence device on the interlayer for another 60 seconds after step (f); 
         [0116]    (i) testing photoelectric properties and parameters of the organic electroluminescence device. 
         [0117]    One skilled in the art will understand that the embodiment of the present invention as shown in the drawings and described above is exemplary only and not intended to be limiting. 
         [0118]    It will thus be seen that the objects of the present invention have been fully and effectively accomplished. It embodiments have been shown and described for the purposes of illustrating the functional and structural principles of the present invention and is subject to change without departure from such principles. Therefore, this invention includes all modifications encompassed within the spirit and scope of the following claims.
The present invention discloses an active matrix organic electroluminescence device comprising a thin-film transistor, an organic electroluminescence device, and an interlayer deposited between the thin-film transistor and the organic electroluminescence device, wherein the interlayer is made of cationic ultraviolet-curing adhesive comprising epoxy resin or modified epoxy resin, diluting agent, cationic photo initiator. The interlayer solves poor adhesiveness between the driving circuit and the organic electroluminescence device, and improves the moisture and oxygen proof ability. The preparation method is simple, effective, and able to lower the cost and difficulty, and greatly improve the yield rate.
