a driver; and
a planar organic light emitting element having an internal capacitance,
wherein the driver is connected with a source and the planar organic light emitting element, and
wherein the planar organic light emitting element is connected to said driver in such a way that the internal capacitance of the planar organic light emitting serves as at least as part of a passive output filter of the driver.
2. The light emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the driver is flat shaped and comprises a multilayer structure.
3. The light emitting device according to claim 1 , further comprising an inductor and a further capacitor arranged at least on one layer of said driver, wherein an insulating layer is provided between the inductor and the further capacitor.
4. The light emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the driver is connected to a back of the planar organic light emitting element.
5. The light emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the planar organic light emitting elements are a string of series connected light emitting elements, a stack of parallel connected light emitting elements or a network of light emitting elements.
6. The light emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the planar organic light emitting element and the driver are bendable or flexible.
7. The light emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the internal capacitance is in a range of 10 pF/mm 2 to 1000 pF/mm 2 .
8. A light emitting device comprising:
a driver; and
a planar light emitting element,
wherein the driver is connected with a source and the light emitting element,
wherein the light emitting element having an internal capacitance is connected to said driver in such a way that the internal capacitance serves as a passive output filter of the driver comprising an inductor and the internal capacitance,
wherein the inductor comprises a substrate with a first and a second side, a winding and a soft-magnetic core, and
wherein the winding is embedded in the substrate, wherein the core comprises a first soft-magnetic sheet which is arranged on the first side of the substrate and a second soft-magnetic sheet which is arranged on the second side of the substrate such that the winding is at least partially covered by the first soft-magnetic sheet and the second soft-magnetic sheet.
9. The light emitting device as claimed in claim 8 , further comprising an insulating layer between the first soft-magnetic sheet and the first side of the substrate and between the second soft-magnetic sheet and the second side of the substrate.
