Abstract

An organic light-emitting display device and a method of fabricating the same. The organic light-emitting display device includes: a substrate; a first electrode including a first metal layer disposed on the substrate and formed of titanium (Ti), aluminum (Al), a titanium or aluminum alloy, a second metal layer disposed on the first metal layer, and a transparent conductive layer disposed on the second metal layer; an organic layer disposed on the first electrode and including at least one organic emission layer; and a second electrode disposed on the organic layer. The method includes: forming a first electrode including a first metal layer formed of Ti, Al, or a titanium or aluminum alloy, a second metal layer, and a transparent conductive layer, on a substrate; forming an organic layer including at least one organic emission layer on the first electrode; and forming a second electrode on the organic layer.

Claims (25)

1. An organic light-emitting display device, comprising:

a substrate;

a first electrode comprising

a first metal layer on the substrate and formed of titanium (Ti), aluminum (Al), a titanium alloy or an aluminum alloy, the first metal layer having a thickness of 50 Å to 200 Å,

a second metal layer having a thickness of 500 Å to 2000 Å to have reflective properties on the first metal layer, and

a transparent conductive layer on the second metal layer;

an organic layer on the first electrode and comprising at least one organic emission layer; and

a second electrode on the organic layer.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the aluminum alloy comprises neodymium (Nd).

3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the second metal layer is formed of silver or a silver alloy.

4. The device of claim 3 , wherein the silver alloy comprises at least one of samarium (Sm), copper (Cu), terbium (Tb), molybdenum (Mo) or tungsten (W).

5. An electronic appliance comprising:

a body comprising electronics; and

the organic light-emitting device of claim 1 mounted on the body.

6. A method of fabricating an organic light-emitting display device, comprising:

forming a first electrode on a substrate, the first electrode comprising:

a first metal layer having a thickness of 50 Å to 200 Å and being formed of titanium (Ti), aluminum (Al), a titanium alloy or an aluminum alloy;

a second metal layer having a thickness of 500 Å to 2000 Å to have reflective properties on the first metal layer; and

a transparent conductive layer on the second metal layer;

forming an organic layer comprising at least one organic emission layer on the first electrode; and

forming a second electrode on the organic layer.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the aluminum alloy comprises neodymium (Nd).

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the second metal layer is formed of silver or a silver alloy.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the silver alloy comprises at least one of samarium (Sm), copper (Cu), terbium (Tb), molybdenum (Mo) or tungsten (W).

10. The method of claim 6 , further comprising preparing the substrate.
