1. An organic electronic device comprising at least one dummy electrode adjacent to at least one pair of active electrodes of the same polarity,
wherein the dummy electrode is biased so that an electric potential difference exists between the dummy electrode and a selected one of the pair of active electrodes that is equal to or greater than the electric potential difference between the selected one and an unselected one of the pair of active electrodes.
