DISPLAY DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17989220 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a display device with a signal transmission region, a peripheral region, and a display region. It includes a base layer, a circuit layer, and a light-emitting element layer.
- The light-emitting element layer contains multiple light-emitting elements in the display region.
- A pixel defining film is present, which has openings for the light-emitting elements.
- There is a hole in the signal transmission region that penetrates the circuit layer and the light-emitting element layer.
- A portion of the pixel defining film is located in the peripheral region.
- The peripheral region has a first opening in the portion of the pixel defining film.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, and televisions.
- Automotive displays for infotainment systems and instrument clusters.
- Wearable devices like smartwatches and augmented reality glasses.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides a simplified structure for display devices.
- Enables efficient signal transmission and light emission.
- Allows for better integration of circuitry and light-emitting elements.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved display quality with precise control over light emission.
- Enhanced durability and reliability of the display device.
- Cost-effective manufacturing process due to simplified structure.
Original Abstract Submitted
A display device in which a signal transmission region, a peripheral region surrounding at least a portion of the signal transmission region, and a display region adjacent to the peripheral region are defined includes a base layer, a circuit layer disposed on the base layer, and a light-emitting element layer disposed on the circuit layer. The light-emitting element layer includes a plurality of light-emitting elements disposed in the display region, and a pixel defining film in which a plurality of light-emitting openings in which the plurality of light-emitting elements is disposed respectively is defined. A hole penetrating each of the circuit layer and the light-emitting element layer is defined in the signal transmission region, a portion of the pixel defining film is disposed in the peripheral region, and a first opening defined in the peripheral region is defined in the portion, disposed in the peripheral region, of the pixel defining film.
