Method of manufacturing organic light-emitting display apparatus and encapsulation sheet used in the method
View Patent ↗A method of manufacturing an organic light-emitting display apparatus includes: preparing a substrate including a display unit and peripheral parts; forming a cutting line on an encapsulation sheet to correspond to a boundary line between the display unit and the peripheral parts, wherein a size of the encapsulation sheet corresponds to that of the substrate; adhering the substrate and the encapsulation sheet together; removing the peripheral parts of the substrate; and cutting the encapsulation sheet along the cutting line. According to the method, a step height is not generated between the substrate and the encapsulation sheet when cutting the substrate and thus cracks may be avoided. Accordingly, products may be stably produced.
1. A method of manufacturing an organic light-emitting display apparatus,
the method comprising:
preparing a substrate comprising a display unit and peripheral parts surrounding the display unit;
forming a cutting line on an encapsulation sheet to correspond to a boundary line between the display unit and the peripheral parts, wherein a size of the encapsulation sheet corresponds to that of the substrate;
adhering the substrate and the encapsulation sheet together;
removing the peripheral parts of the substrate; and
cutting the encapsulation sheet along the cutting line.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulation sheet comprises an insulating base film and metal wirings on at least one surface of the base film so as to form a conductive path connecting the display unit and a power source.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the metal wirings are completely removed at the cutting line and the base film is partially punched.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the metal wirings are completely removed at the cutting line and the base film is not punched.
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the metal wirings and the base film are all partially punched at the cutting line.
6. The method of claim 2 , wherein the substrate comprises a plurality of cells, each of the cells comprising the display unit and the cutting line surrounding the display unit.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the substrate comprising the peripheral parts has the same size as that of the encapsulation sheet comprising the cutting line.
