DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240224721 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
The display apparatus described in the patent application includes multiple layers and components such as a substrate, insulating layers, thin-film transistors, light-emitting diodes, and encapsulation layers.
- The display apparatus consists of a substrate with a first insulating layer covering both the display area and the peripheral area.
- A thin-film transistor is located in the display area, connected to a light-emitting diode that contains a sub-pixel electrode.
- An encapsulation layer covers the light-emitting diode, comprising a first inorganic layer, a second inorganic layer, and an organic layer in between.
- The peripheral area includes first and second dam portions on the first insulating layer, with a valley defined between them.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in the manufacturing of high-quality displays for electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and televisions. - It can also be applied in the development of advanced medical imaging equipment or automotive display systems.
Problems Solved: - The technology addresses the need for improved display quality and durability in electronic devices. - It provides a solution for protecting delicate components like thin-film transistors and light-emitting diodes from environmental factors.
Benefits: - Enhanced display performance with increased brightness and color accuracy. - Extended lifespan of electronic devices due to improved encapsulation and protection of internal components.
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Display Technology for Electronic Devices This technology can revolutionize the consumer electronics market by offering manufacturers the ability to produce cutting-edge displays with superior performance and durability. The enhanced visual experience provided by this technology can attract a wide range of consumers looking for high-quality displays in their electronic devices.
Questions about Display Apparatus: 1. How does the encapsulation layer improve the longevity of the display apparatus? The encapsulation layer protects the internal components of the display, such as the thin-film transistors and light-emitting diodes, from environmental factors like moisture and oxygen, thus extending the lifespan of the device.
2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this display technology in mass production? Implementing this display technology in mass production may require specialized equipment and processes to ensure the precise deposition of layers and the proper functioning of all components.
Original Abstract Submitted
