DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240016026 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a display device that includes an organic light emitting display panel with a display area and a non-display area. The device also includes a base layer, a circuit layer, a light emitting device layer, and a thin film sealing layer. The thin film sealing layer is divided into a first and second thin film sealing area, and a touch detection unit is included with a first and second sensor part on each thin film sealing area.

  • The display device includes an organic light emitting display panel with a display area and a non-display area.
  • The device has a base layer, a circuit layer, a light emitting device layer, and a thin film sealing layer.
  • The thin film sealing layer is divided into a first and second thin film sealing area.
  • The touch detection unit includes a first and second sensor part on each thin film sealing area.
  • The upper surface of the thin film sealing layer has a first and second upper surface, with the second upper surface protruding away from the base layer.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, and televisions could benefit from this display device.
  • Automotive displays and infotainment systems could use this technology to enhance user interaction.
  • Medical devices and equipment could incorporate this display device for improved touch detection and display quality.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The display device provides a seamless and responsive touch detection system.
  • The thin film sealing layer protects the underlying layers and components from external factors.
  • The organic light emitting display panel offers high-quality image display.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved touch detection accuracy and responsiveness.
  • Enhanced display quality and image resolution.
  • Increased durability and protection for the display device.
  • Potential for thinner and lighter display devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

a display device includes an organic light emitting display panel defining a display area for displaying an image and a non-display area adjacent the display area, and including a base layer, a circuit layer on the base layer, a light emitting device layer on the circuit layer, and a thin film sealing layer on the light emitting device layer and divided into a first thin film sealing area, and a second thin film sealing area adjacent the first thin film sealing area, and a touch detection unit including a first sensor part on the first thin film sealing area of the thin film sealing layer, and a second sensor part on the second thin film sealing area of the thin film sealing layer, wherein an upper surface of the thin film sealing layer that faces the touch detection unit includes a first upper surface in the first thin film sealing area, and a second upper surface in the second thin film sealing area and protruding away from the base layer.
