Abstract

An organic light-emitting display device includes a substrate; a thin-film transistor on the substrate; a first insulating layer covering the thin-film transistor; a first electrode on the first insulating layer, and electrically connected to the thin-film transistor; a second insulating layer on the first insulating layer so as to cover the first electrode, and having an opening for exposing a part of the first electrode; a porous member in the second insulating layer; a second electrode on the second insulating layer, and facing the first electrode so as to correspond to the opening; and an organic emission layer between the first electrode and the second electrode so as to correspond to the opening. The organic light-emitting display device may prevent degradation of characteristics of an organic light-emitting device due to discharge of gas from an organic material.

Claims (24)

1. An organic light-emitting display device comprising:

a substrate;

a thin-film transistor on the substrate;

a first insulating layer covering the thin-film transistor;

a first electrode on the first insulating layer, and electrically connected to the thin-film transistor;

a second insulating layer on the first insulating layer, covering the first electrode, and having an opening for exposing a part of the first electrode;

a porous member in the second insulating layer, the second insulating layer having a thickness greater than a thickness of the porous member;

a second electrode on the second insulating layer, and facing the first electrode so as to correspond to the opening; and

an organic emission layer between the first electrode and the second electrode so as to correspond to the opening,

wherein three surfaces of the porous member, except for a surface of the porous member contacting the first insulating layer, contact the second insulating layer and

wherein the porous member is on the first insulating layer.

2. The organic light-emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein the porous member surrounds the first electrode.

3. The organic light-emitting display device of claim 2 , wherein the porous member continuously surrounds the first electrode.

4. The organic light-emitting display device of claim 2 , wherein the porous member surrounds the first electrode.

5. The organic light-emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein the porous member is formed of an oxide or a carbide of a material selected from the group consisting of silicon (Si), titanium (Ti), aluminum (Al), zinc (Zn), and a combination thereof.

6. An organic light-emitting display device comprising:

a substrate;

a thin-film transistor on the substrate;

a first insulating layer covering the thin-film transistor;

a first electrode on the first insulating layer, and electrically connected to the thin-film transistor;

a second insulating layer contacting the first insulating layer, covering the first electrode, and having an opening for exposing a part of the first electrode;

a porous gas adsorption member in the second insulating layer;

a second electrode on the second insulating layer, and facing the first electrode so as to correspond to the opening; and

an organic emission layer between the first electrode and the second electrode so as to correspond to the opening.
