Display Device and Method for Manufacturing of the Same - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18478414 titled 'Display Device and Method for Manufacturing of the Same
The abstract describes a display device and a method for manufacturing it, focusing on delaying the penetration of moisture and oxygen into the display region. The device includes a substrate with a display region and a non-display region, a metal layer, a protective layer, and an undercut area along the boundary between the display and non-display regions.
- Metal layer and protective layer on the substrate
- Undercut area with an undercut structure to prevent moisture and oxygen penetration
- Display region with subpixels displaying images
- Non-display region surrounding the display region
- Method for manufacturing a display device with improved moisture and oxygen resistance
Potential Applications: - Consumer electronics - Automotive displays - Medical devices
Problems Solved: - Delaying moisture and oxygen penetration - Enhancing display device longevity
Benefits: - Improved durability - Extended lifespan of display devices - Enhanced performance in various environments
Commercial Applications: Title: Moisture and Oxygen Resistant Display Devices This technology can be utilized in various commercial applications such as smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, and automotive displays. The enhanced moisture and oxygen resistance can improve the reliability and longevity of these devices, making them more attractive to consumers.
Questions about Moisture and Oxygen Resistant Display Devices:
1. How does the undercut area prevent moisture and oxygen penetration? The undercut structure in the area ensures that the protective layer protrudes further than the metal layer, creating a barrier that hinders the entry of moisture and oxygen.
2. What are the potential benefits of using this technology in medical devices? Medical devices require high reliability and durability, and the moisture and oxygen resistance provided by this technology can ensure the longevity and performance of these devices in various healthcare settings.
Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a display device and a method for manufacturing thereof and, in more detail, can provide a display device capable of delaying a time for penetration of moisture and oxygen into a display region. The display device includes a substrate having a display region displaying an image using a plurality of subpixels and a non-display region surrounding the display region, a metal layer disposed on the substrate; a protective layer disposed on the metal layer; and an undercut area disposed along a boundary between the display region and the non-display region, the undercut area including an undercut structure in which an edge of the protective layer protrudes further than a side of the metal layer or a side of the protective layer below the portion.
