DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18375655 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
The abstract describes a display device with a complex structure involving multiple layers of electrodes, insulating layers, light emitting layers, and thin-film patterns.
- The device includes a first pixel electrode in a specific emission area on the substrate, formed with multiple layers.
- An insulating layer covers the edge of the first pixel electrode.
- A first light emitting layer is placed on the first pixel electrode and the insulating layer.
- A first common electrode is positioned on the first light emitting layer.
- A bank surrounds the emission area, placed on the insulating layer.
- A first thin-film pattern is adjacent to the emission area, on the insulating layer and the bank.
- The uppermost layer of the first pixel electrode and the first thin-film pattern are made of the same material.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in high-resolution displays for electronic devices. - It can be applied in the manufacturing of OLED screens for smartphones, tablets, and TVs.
Problems Solved: - The device addresses the need for improved display quality and efficiency. - It solves issues related to pixel electrode design and light emission in display devices.
Benefits: - Enhanced display performance with higher resolution and brightness. - Improved energy efficiency and longer lifespan for electronic displays.
Commercial Applications: - The technology can be utilized by display manufacturers to produce advanced OLED screens for consumer electronics. - It has implications for the consumer electronics market, offering better display quality and energy-saving features.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the multiple-layer structure of the pixel electrode contribute to the display device's performance? 2. What are the advantages of using the same material for the uppermost layer of the pixel electrode and the thin-film pattern?
Original Abstract Submitted
A display device includes: a first pixel electrode disposed in a first emission area on a substrate and formed as multiple layers, an insulating layer covering an edge of the first pixel electrode, a first light emitting layer disposed on the first pixel electrode and the insulating layer, a first common electrode disposed on the first light emitting layer, a bank disposed on the insulating layer and surrounding the first emission area, and a first thin-film pattern disposed on the insulating layer and the bank in an adjacent area to the first emission area. An uppermost layer of the first pixel electrode and the first thin-film pattern include the same material.
