Organic electroluminescent device
View Patent ↗An organic electroluminescent device that includes an effectively optical area including display pixels for display and a dummy area surrounding the effectively optical area, the dummy area including dummy pixels not for display. The device includes a first composite material on the first portion in the effectively optical area, the first portion corresponding to one of the display pixels, and a second composite material separate from the first composite material, the second composite material being coated on a second portion of the dummy area, the second portion corresponding to one of the dummy pixels, the first composite material including a first organic electroluminescent material that is dissolved or dispersed in a solvent and the second composite material including a second organic electroluminescent material that is dissolved or dispersed in a solvent.
1. An organic EL device including a first area having a plurality of display pixel areas arranged in a matrix and a second area that is not related to display disposed around a perimeter of the first area, the organic EL device comprising:
a substrate;
a first electrode disposed over the matrix of the display pixel areas;
second electrodes formed in the first area, each of the second electrodes being disposed between the substrate and the first electrode;
third electrodes arranged in the second area, a first organic EL material arranged between the first electrode and one of the second electrodes; and
a second organic EL material formed in the second area and arranged between the substrate and the first electrode, the second organic EL material being arranged between one of the third electrodes and the first electrode,
wherein, in the first area, a TFT is connected to one of the second electrodes, and
in the second area, each of the third electrodes is provided in the absence of a TFT.
2. The organic EL device as set forth in claim 1 ,
wherein the first organic EL material is separated from the second organic EL material by a partition wall.
3. The organic EL device as set forth in claim 1 ,
wherein adjacent display pixel areas of the plurality of display pixel areas are separated from each other by a partition wall.
4. The organic EL device as set forth in claim 3 ,
wherein the first organic EL material is separated from the second organic EL material by the partition wall.
5. The organic EL device as set forth in claim 3 ,
wherein the second organic EL material is formed on or over the partition wall.
6. The organic EL device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first organic EL material and the second organic EL material are the same material.
7. The organic EL device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first organic EL material and the second organic EL material are different materials.
