DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240284723 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE
The patent application describes a display device with a unique connection electrode design.
- The display panel includes a pixel, an encapsulation layer, and a connection electrode connecting a signal line and a pad electrode.
- The connection electrode is connected to the pad electrode via a first contact area in a non-display area.
- A first contact hole is defined in the first contact area, with insulating layers disposed inside it.
- A second contact hole within the first contact hole exposes the pad electrode, with a smaller width than the first contact hole.
Potential Applications:
- This technology can be used in various display devices such as smartphones, tablets, and TVs.
- It can also be applied in medical imaging equipment and automotive displays.
Problems Solved:
- Provides a reliable and efficient connection between the signal line and pad electrode.
- Ensures proper functionality of the display panel by preventing signal interference.
Benefits:
- Improved display performance and longevity.
- Enhanced overall device reliability.
- Simplified manufacturing process.
Commercial Applications:
- This technology can be valuable for display manufacturers looking to enhance the quality and durability of their products.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this connection electrode design improve the overall performance of the display device?
- The design ensures a secure and stable connection between the signal line and pad electrode, reducing the risk of signal interference and improving overall functionality.
2. What potential industries could benefit the most from implementing this technology?
- Industries such as consumer electronics, healthcare, and automotive could greatly benefit from the improved display performance and reliability offered by this technology.
Original Abstract Submitted
a display device includes a display panel. the display panel includes a pixel, an encapsulation layer, and a connection electrode connecting a signal line and a pad electrode. the connection electrode is connected to the pad electrode via a first contact area positioned in a non-display area. a first contact hole is defined penetrating the second synthetic resin layer in the first contact area, a plurality of insulating layers is disposed in the first contact hole, and a second contact hole is defined inside the first contact hole in a plan view, penetrates the insulating layers, and exposes the pad electrode. the first contact hole has a width greater than a width of the second contact hole in the plan view.
