DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18232475 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

The abstract describes a display device with multiple layers including pixel circuit layer, pixel electrodes, reflective layers, insulating layer, and transparent electrode layers.

  • The display device includes a substrate, pixel circuit layer, pixel electrodes, reflective layers, insulating layer, and transparent electrode layers.
  • The pixel circuit layer contains thin-film transistors and is connected to the pixel electrodes.
  • The pixel electrodes consist of sub-conductive layers with conductive materials and reflective layers with second conductive materials.
  • An inorganic insulating layer separates the reflective layers and the transparent electrode layers.
  • The transparent electrode layers are electrically connected to the sub-conductive layers.
  • The second pixel electrode is located separately from the first pixel electrode in a plan view.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various display devices such as LCDs, OLEDs, and microLEDs. - It can be applied in smartphones, tablets, TVs, monitors, and wearable devices.
