LIGHT EMITTING ELEMENT AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17879566 titled 'LIGHT EMITTING ELEMENT AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display device that includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a plurality of light emitting elements. Each light emitting element consists of a first semiconductor layer, a second semiconductor layer, a light emitting layer, and an insulating film.

  • The display device has a first electrode and a second electrode, which are separated by a first insulating layer.
  • A plurality of light emitting elements are placed on the first insulating layer and are connected to the first and second electrodes.
  • Each light emitting element consists of a first semiconductor layer doped with an n-type dopant, a second semiconductor layer doped with a p-type dopant, and a light emitting layer in between.
  • An insulating film surrounds at least the light emitting layer of each light emitting element.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Display devices: This technology can be used in various display devices, such as televisions, computer monitors, and mobile phone screens.
  • Lighting: The light emitting elements can also be used for general lighting purposes, such as in light bulbs or LED strips.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Simplified design: The display device eliminates the need for complex circuitry by directly connecting the light emitting elements to the electrodes.
  • Improved efficiency: The use of n-type and p-type doped semiconductor layers allows for efficient light emission in the display device.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced display quality: The display device provides high-quality and vibrant images due to the efficient light emission from the light emitting elements.
  • Energy efficiency: The use of efficient light emitting elements results in lower power consumption, making the display device more energy-efficient.
  • Simplified manufacturing process: The design of the display device simplifies the manufacturing process, potentially reducing production costs.
