  • Publication number: 20140170315
    Abstract: A thin-film deposition apparatus includes a deposition source, which ejects deposition vapors toward a substrate via an ejection hole, and an angle restricting plate, which is arranged adjacent to the ejection hole so as to restrict, within a set range, an angle of ejecting the deposition vapors from the ejection hole. The angle restricting plate includes a fixed restricting plate, which is fixed with respect to the ejection hole, and a movable restricting plate, which is movable with respect to the ejection hole.

  • Patent number: 7994713
    Abstract: An organic light emitting diode (OLED) and a method of fabricating the same are provided. In the OLED, a second electron transport layer having an absolute value of a lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy level smaller than that of a first electron transport layer is formed between a second electrode and the first electron transport layer, so that the second electron transport layer can suppress injection and transport of electrons under a low voltage condition to maintain a low current density. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent (or block) an element from emitting light when representing the color black. The OLED includes an emission layer on the first electrode, the first electron transport layer on the emission layer, the second electron transport layer on the first electron transport layer, and the second electrode on the second electron transport layer.
