Organic electroluminescent device and fabrication method thereof
View Patent ↗Provided are an organic electroluminescent device and a fabrication method thereof. The organic electroluminescent device includes a first substrate, a second substrate, an organic electroluminescent layer formed on the first substrate, a thin film transistor formed on the second substrate, and first and second seal lines attaching the first and second substrates to each other.
1. A method of fabricating an organic electroluminescent device, the method comprising:
providing a first substrate, wherein a thin film transistor is formed on the first substrate;
providing a second substrate, wherein an organic electroluminescent layer is formed on the second substrate;
coating a first sealant on one of the first and second substrates, and attaching the first and second substrates to each other to form a first seal line; and
forming a second seal line on edge regions at both sides of the attached first and second substrates where the first seal line is formed,
wherein the forming of the second seal line includes,
attaching a supporter to the first and second substrates attached by the first seal line;
coating a second sealant on the edge regions at both sides of the attached first and second substrates;
curing a region where the second sealant is coated, and
wherein the attaching of the supporter further comprises attaching a guide member to edge regions of the first and second substrates, and
wherein the guide member is attached on the supporter in the edge regions of the first and second substrates.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the curing of the region where the second sealant is coated further comprises removing the supporter.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the curing of the region where the second sealant is coated further comprises removing the guide member.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the curing of the region where the second sealant is coated is performed using any one of UV irradiation, heating and laser irradiation.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second seal line is any one of ultraviolet curing agent, silicon and metal oxide.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the organic electroluminescent layer is formed as a stacked structure of red, green and blue organic electroluminescent layers, or formed as a white organic electroluminescent layer.
7. The method according to claim 6 , further comprising forming red, green and blue color filters on the first substrate.
