Organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) were fabricated on scanning probe cantilevers using a combination of thermally evaporated molecular organic compounds and metallic electrodes. Ion beam milling was used to define the emissive region in the shape of a ring having a diameter of less than 5  µm and a narrow width. Stable light emission was observed from the device at forward bias, with a current-voltage response similar to that of archetypal OLEDs. Based on this device, a novel electrically pumped scanning optical microscopy tool is suggested. ©2006 American Institute of Physics
