Abstract

An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display is disclosed. In one embodiment, the OLED display includes i) a display substrate, ii) an OLED array, iii) an encapsulation substrate arranged opposite to the display substrate with respect to the OLED array, iv) a sealing member configured to seal the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate and v) a filler applied in a space formed between the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate. In one embodiment, the height of the filler is more than about 1.2 times the height of the OLED array.

Claims (43)

1. An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display comprising:

a display substrate;

an OLED array;

an encapsulation substrate arranged opposite to the display substrate with respect to the OLED array;

a sealing member configured to seal the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate; and

a filler applied in a space formed between the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate, wherein the height of the filler is 1.2 times the height of the OLED array.

2. The OLED display of claim 1 , wherein the filler height is the maximum height of the filler and wherein the array height is the maximum height of the OLED array.

3. The OLED display of claim 2 , wherein the filler height is the distance between the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate.

4. The OLED display of claim 3 , wherein the array height is the distance between the display substrate and a first layer arranged closest to the encapsulation substrate among a plurality of layers included in the OLED array.

5. The OLED display of claim 4 , wherein the first layer is a cathode.

6. The OLED display of claim 2 , wherein the filler height is the distance between an interlayer insulating layer included in the OLED array and the encapsulation substrate.

7. The OLED display of claim 6 , wherein the array height is the distance between the interlayer insulating layer and a second layer arranged closest to the encapsulation substrate among a plurality of layers included in the OLED array.

8. The OLED display of claim 7 , wherein the second layer is a cathode.

9. The OLED display of claim 3 , wherein the filler height is about 9 μm.

10. The OLED display of claim 5 , wherein the array height is about 7.5 μm.

11. An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display comprising:

a display substrate;

a sealing member configured to seal the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate; and

a filler applied in a space formed between the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate, wherein the height of the filler is about 1.2 times the height of the OLED array,

wherein the filler height is the maximum height of the filler and wherein the array height is the maximum height of the OLED array,

wherein the filler height is the distance between an interlayer insulating layer included in the OLED array and the encapsulation substrate, and

wherein the filler height is about 5.4 μm.

12. An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display comprising:

a display substrate;

an OLED array;

an encapsulation substrate arranged opposite to the display substrate with respect to the OLED array;

a sealing member configured to seal the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate; and

a filler applied in a space formed between the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate, wherein the height of the filler is about 1.2 times the height of the OLED array,

wherein the filler height is the maximum height of the filler and wherein the array height is the maximum height of the OLED array,

wherein the filler height is the distance between an interlayer insulating layer included in the OLED array and the encapsulation substrate,

wherein the array height is the distance between the interlayer insulating layer and a second layer arranged closest to the encapsulation substrate among a plurality of layers included in the OLED array,

wherein the second layer is a cathode, and

wherein the array height is about 4.5 μm.

13. The OLED display of claim 1 , wherein the filler includes a silicon-based material.

14. The OLED display of claim 1 , wherein the sealing member is a frit.

15. An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display comprising:

a display substrate;

an OLED array;

an encapsulation substrate arranged opposite to the display substrate with respect to the OLED array;

a sealing member configured to seal the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate; and

a filler applied in a space formed between the display substrate and the encapsulation substrate, wherein the height of the filler is 1.2 times the height of the OLED array, wherein the filler height is the maximum height of the filler and wherein the array height is the maximum height of the OLED array, and wherein the array height is the distance between an interlayer insulating layer and a second layer arranged closest to the encapsulation substrate among a plurality of layers included in the OLED array.
