DISPLAY PANEL - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240224648 titled 'DISPLAY PANEL
The display panel described in the patent application includes a base layer that can bend with respect to a virtual axis, a driving element layer with a transistor, and a light emitting element layer with a first electrode, emission layers, and second electrodes. One of the second electrodes is connected to the transistor. The first electrode consists of first sub electrodes overlapping the emission layers and a connection pattern layer that connects the first sub electrodes. The connection pattern layer has a first connection pattern layer that connects the first sub electrodes in a first direction parallel to the virtual axis, and a second connection pattern layer that connects the first sub electrodes in a second direction intersecting the first direction. The first connection pattern layer has a higher density than the second connection pattern layer.
- The display panel has a base layer that can bend along a virtual axis.
- It includes a driving element layer with a transistor and a light emitting element layer with electrodes and emission layers.
- The first electrode has sub electrodes and a connection pattern layer to connect them.
- The connection pattern layer has two layers, with the first layer having a higher density than the second layer.
- The second electrodes are electrically connected to the transistor.
Potential Applications: - Flexible displays for smartphones and wearable devices. - Curved or bendable screens for automotive displays. - Foldable screens for tablets and laptops.
Problems Solved: - Enables the creation of flexible and bendable display panels. - Provides a method for connecting electrodes in different directions efficiently.
Benefits: - Allows for innovative designs in display technology. - Enhances the durability and versatility of electronic devices.
Commercial Applications: Title: Flexible Display Panels for Next-Generation Devices This technology can be used in the development of smartphones, tablets, wearables, and automotive displays. The market implications include increased demand for flexible and durable display solutions in various industries.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the density of the connection pattern layers affect the performance of the display panel? 2. What are the potential challenges in mass-producing display panels with this technology?
Original Abstract Submitted
a display panel includes a base layer bendable with respect to a virtual axis, a driving element layer including a transistor, and a light emitting element layer including a first electrode, emission layers disposed on the first electrode, and second electrodes disposed on the emission layers. one of the second electrodes is electrically connected to the transistor. the first electrode includes first sub electrodes overlapping the emission layers and a connection pattern layer that electrically connects the first sub electrodes. the connection pattern layer includes a first connection pattern layer that electrically connects the first sub electrodes in a first direction parallel to the virtual axis, and a second connection pattern layer that electrically connects the first sub electrodes in a second direction intersecting the first direction. the first connection pattern layer has a density greater than that of the second connection pattern layer.
