  • Publication number: 20070117257
    Abstract: An OLED display comprises a barrier layer to substantially block moisture from an organic material. For example, an OLED display includes a substrate, a first signal line formed on the substrate, a second signal line crossing the first signal line, a driving voltage line formed on the substrate to transfer a first voltage, a first TFT connected to the first and second signal lines, a second TFT connected to the first TFT and the drive voltage line, a passivation layer formed on the first and second TFTs, a barrier layer formed on the passivation layer, a first electrode formed on the barrier layer and connected to the second TFT, a second electrode to receive a second voltage and positioned facing the first electrode, and a light emitter member formed between the first and second electrodes. Because the barrier layer as the inorganic layer is formed on the passivation layer as the organic layer, an inflow of moisture to an organic light emitter member can be prevented (or substantially reduced).

  • Publication number: 20070114922
    Abstract: An OLED display for improving white light emitting efficiency and simplifying a manufacturing process includes a plurality of pixels, each of the pixels having a transistor unit, a color filter unit and an organic light emitting device unit. The transistor unit converts signals from the outside into driving signals for driving an organic light emitting device unit. The organic light emitting device unit is composed of blue, red and green emission layers each having different areas. By passing white light through a color filer, the OLED display can realize full color.

  • Publication number: 20070064486
    Abstract: A display device that lends itself to a cost-effective and simplified manufacturing process is presented. The display device includes an insulating substrate; a common voltage line formed on the insulating substrate; an insulating layer provided on the common voltage line; and a contact hole extending through the insulating layer to the common voltage line. A deposition preventing column contacts the common voltage line at the bottom of the contact hole. The deposition preventing column has a width that changes with distance from the insulating substrate and covers the common voltage line. A common electrode is connected to the common voltage line.

  • Publication number: 20060192487
    Abstract: A display device includes a first substrate, light emitting elements formed over the first substrate, a second substrate facing the first substrate, and a sealing member between the first and the second substrate to combine them. The sealing member is patterned to expose the light emitting elements. The sealing member may include black colored material to improve contrast, and dehydrating material may be part of the device to absorb moisture and/or oxygen. Accordingly, the transmittance of light generated from the light emitting elements increases and the luminance of display device improves.

  • Patent number: 6713953
    Abstract: Disclosed is a field emission display device which can prevent mixing of colors between the phosphor elements of the field emission display device. In the field emission display device, an upper substrate and a lower substrate are spaced apart with a predetermined gap and opposed to each other. Cathode assemblies are formed in a shape of stripes on the lower substrate. Anodes are formed on the upper substrate, and black matrices are formed on the anodes. The black matrices are disposed at locations respectively corresponding to every space between the cathode assemblies, so as to respectively have a shape of a partition. R, G, and B phosphor elements are formed in spaces between the black matrices, so as to respectively correspond to the cathode assemblies.
