LIGHT-EMITTING DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18530988 titled 'LIGHT-EMITTING DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a light-emitting element structure with a resonance effect that enhances the output light from a light-emission functional layer.
- The first light-emitting element and the second light-emitting element have a resonance structure that causes output light to resonate between a reflective layer and a semi-transmissive reflective layer.
- A pixel definition layer with aperture parts corresponding to each light-emitting element is formed on a base.
- The first and second intervals between the reflective layer and the semi-transmissive reflective layer in the two elements are different.
- The film thickness of the pixel definition layer is less than the difference between the first and second intervals.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in display screens, lighting systems, and optical communication devices.
Problems Solved
This innovation solves the problem of improving light output efficiency and control in light-emitting elements.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include enhanced light emission, better energy efficiency, and improved image quality in displays.
Potential Commercial Applications

Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of microcavity structures in light-emitting devices to enhance light emission efficiency.
Unanswered Questions
How does the resonance structure impact the overall performance of the light-emitting elements?
The resonance structure enhances the output light by causing it to resonate between the reflective and semi-transmissive reflective layers, leading to improved efficiency and brightness.
What are the specific materials used in the construction of these light-emitting elements?
The specific materials used in the construction of these elements are not mentioned in the abstract, but they would likely include semiconductors, reflective materials, and transparent conductive layers.
Original Abstract Submitted
A first light-emitting element and a second light-emitting element that have a resonance structure that causes output light from a light-emission functional layer to resonate between a reflective layer and a semi-transmissive reflective layer, and a pixel definition layer, and in which an aperture part is formed to correspond to each of the first light-emitting element and the second light-emitting element, are formed on a base. A first interval between the reflective layer and the semi-transmissive reflective layer in the first light-emitting element and a second interval between the reflective layer and the semi-transmissive reflective layer in the second light-emitting element are different, and a film thickness of the pixel definition layer is less than a difference between the first interval and the second interval.
