Abstract

A light emitting display includes light-emitting devices in which unnecessary layers for the emission operation of the light-emitting device are removed in an emission region, and in a case where a wavelength of a light, of which an interference intensity to the light emitted from an emissive layer constituting the light-emitting device becomes a maximum value at 0 degree of a viewing angle, is λimax and a wavelength of the light becoming a maximum in a light intensity in relation to the light emitted from the emissive layer is λemax, a relationship of λimax<λemax is satisfied, obtaining a light emitting display with a little variation in color over a wide range of viewing angles.

Claims (18)

1. An active-matrix type color light-emitting display apparatus comprising:

a plurality of light-emitting elements which are arranged in matrix and emit white light,

a transparent substrate,

a plurality of switching elements which control lightings of said light-emitting element formed in said transparent substrate,

a color filter which said white light from said light-emitting elements is incident thereon and transmits red light,

a color filter which said white light from said light-emitting elements is incident thereon and transmits green light, and

a color filter which said white light from said light-emitting elements is incident thereon and transmits blue light, wherein

a wavelength of light, at which an interference intensity of light emitted from an emissive layer constituting said light-emitting elements becomes a maximum at 0 degree of a viewing angle, is shorter than a shortest wavelength, at which an intensity of the light emitted from said emissive layer becomes a maximum in a visible wavelength range.

2. An active-matrix type color light emitting display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a wavelength at which an interference intensity of light becomes a minimum is not present in the visible wavelength range.

3. An active-matrix type color light-emitting display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein said light-emitting elements are formed by stacking a plurality of emissive layers which emit different colors, thereby white color is emitted.

4. An active-matrix type color light-emitting display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein said light-emitting element are formed by doping coloring matters which emit different colors into one emissive layer, thereby white color is emitted.

5. A color light emitting display including light-emitting devices constituting a plurality of red, green and blue pixels disposed in a matrix form,

wherein said light emitting display is of taking out a light from a side opposite to a substrate on which said light-emitting devices are formed,

wherein a wavelength of the light, of which an interference intensity to the light emitted from an emissive layer constituting said light-emitting device becomes a maximum value at 0 degree of a viewing angle is λimax, a wavelength of the light becoming a minimum value in the interference intensity is λimin and a wavelength of the light becoming a maximum in a light intensity in relation to the light emitted from said emissive layer is λemax, a relationship of λimax<λemax and λimin≧λemax+70 nm is satisfied, and

wherein a case where a thickness of an organic film constituting said organic light-emitting diode device is RT in a red pixel, GT in a green pixel, and BT in a blue pixel, a relationship of RT≧GT≧BT is satisfied.

6. A color light emitting display including light-emitting devices constituting a plurality of red, green and blue pixels disposed in a matrix form,

wherein said light emitting display is of taking out a light from a side opposite to a substrate on which said light-emitting devices are formed, wherein a wavelength of the light, of which an interference intensity to the light emitted from an emissive layer constituting said light-emitting device becomes a maximum value at 0 degree of a viewing angle is λimax, a wavelength of the light becoming a minimum value in the interference intensity is λimin and a wavelength of the light becoming a maximum in a light intensity in relation to the light emitted from said emissive layer is λemax, a relationship of λimax<λemax and λimin≧λemax+70 nm is satisfied, and

wherein said light-emitting device has an electrode of and optical transparency on a side from which the light is taken out, and a transparent element with a refractive index of 1.4 to 2.0 provided on a surface of said electrode from which the light is taken out.
