Organic light emitting display device and method of manufacturing the same
View Patent ↗Provided is a method of manufacturing an organic light emitting display device in which a laser beam is used. The method includes forming an organic light emitting unit on a substrate; forming a sealing unit that seals the organic light emitting unit; forming an protective film which is opaque on the sealing unit to protect the organic light emitting unit or the sealing unit by blocking the transmission of the laser beam; forming an optical pattern on the opaque protective film using the laser beam; and forming a transparent film from the opaque protective film by oxidizing the opaque protective film.
1. An organic light emitting display device comprising:
a substrate;
an organic light emitting unit formed on the substrate;
a sealing unit sealing the organic light emitting unit;
a protective film formed on the sealing unit; and
an optical pattern formed on the protective film using a laser beam,
wherein the protective film protects the organic light emitting unit or the sealing unit by preventing transmission of the laser beam therethrough.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the protective film is formed of a material that is opaque in an oxygen-free atmosphere and is transparent after reacting with oxygen.
3. The device of claim 2 , wherein the protective film is formed of a metal that is opaque in an oxygen-free atmosphere and is transparent after reacting with oxygen.
4. The device of claim 3 , wherein the protective film is formed of Calcium or Lithium.
5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the protective film reflects the laser beam in an oxygen-free atmosphere and is transparent after reacting with oxygen.
6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the optical pattern is a color filter or a light absorption layer in an oxygen-free atmosphere.
7. The device of claim 1 , wherein the sealing unit comprises at least two layers.
8. The device of claim 7 , wherein the sealing unit has a structure in which an organic layer and an inorganic layer are alternately stacked.
