DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18224083 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE DISPLAY DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a display device with a protrusion on the substrate and an organic layer.
- The display device includes a substrate with a display area and a protrusion that sticks out in the thickness direction of the substrate.
- There is a first electrode on top of the organic layer, which overlaps the display area.
- A pixel defining layer covers the protrusion and the edge of the first electrode, with an opening portion that overlaps the first electrode.
- An emission layer is on top of the first electrode, overlapping the opening portion.
- A second electrode is on top of the emission layer.
- The pixel defining layer is made of an inorganic material.
- The distance from the upper surface of the substrate to the lower surface of the first electrode is smaller than the distance from the upper surface of the substrate to the upper surface of the protrusion.
Original Abstract Submitted
An embodiment of a display device includes a substrate including a display area; an organic layer and having a protrusion protruding in a thickness direction of the substrate and overlapping the display area; a first electrode on the organic layer and overlapping the display area; a pixel defining layer covering the protrusion and an edge of the first electrode and having an opening portion overlapping the first electrode; an emission layer on the first electrode and overlapping the opening portion; and a second electrode on the emission layer, wherein the pixel defining layer includes an inorganic material, and a first distance from an upper surface of the substrate to a lower surface of the first electrode is less than a second distance from the upper surface of the substrate to an upper surface of the protrusion, the lower surface of the first electrode facing the upper surface of the substrate.
