  • Publication number: 20120104939
    Abstract: An organic light emitting display device is disclosed. In certain embodiments, the display has improved quality and lower cost because the subpixels of the display are oriented to have their longer sides parallel to the longer sides of the display. With the orientation, during crystallization of the subpixels, laser radiation is projected across the display device in a direction parallel to the short sides of the display device. Accordingly, less expensive laser equipment producing a shorter beam width may be used.
