Organic light emitting diode display and method for manufacturing the same
View Patent ↗An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display includes: a substrate; an organic light emitting diode formed on the substrate; a first inorganic layer formed on the substrate and covering the organic light emitting diode; an intermediate layer formed on the first inorganic layer and covering an area relatively smaller than the first inorganic layer; and a second inorganic layer formed on the first inorganic layer and the intermediate layer, and contacting the first inorganic layer at an edge thereof while covering a relatively larger area than the intermediate layer. A third inorganic layer may be formed on the second inorganic layer so as to contact the second inorganic layer at an edge thereof. At least one of the first, second and third inorganic layers is formed by an atomic layer deposition (ALD) method.
1. An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display device, comprising:
a substrate;
an organic light emitting diode formed on the substrate;
a first inorganic layer formed on the substrate and covering the organic light emitting diode;
an intermediate layer formed on the first inorganic layer and covering an area relatively smaller than the first inorganic layer; and
a second inorganic layer formed on the first inorganic layer and the intermediate layer and contacting the first inorganic layer at an edge thereof while covering a relatively larger area than the intermediate layer;
wherein the intermediate layer comprises at least one of an organic layer and a combination of a metal oxide layer and an organic layer.
2. The OLED display device of claim 1 , the first inorganic layer and the second inorganic layer being layered on an edge of the substrate.
3. The OLED display device of claim 2 , the first inorganic layer being formed by an atomic layer deposition (ALD) method.
4. The OLED display device of claim 1 , further comprising an upper layer formed on the second inorganic layer, wherein the upper layer covers a relatively smaller area than the second inorganic layer.
5. The OLED display device of claim 4 , wherein the upper layer covers an area that is the same as the intermediate layer.
6. The OLED display device of claim 4 , wherein the upper layer comprises at least one of a metal oxide layer and an organic layer.
7. The OLED display device of claim 4 , comprising a third inorganic layer formed on the second inorganic layer and the upper layer, and contacting the second inorganic layer at an edge thereof while covering a relatively larger area than the upper layer.
8. The OLED display device of claim 7 , wherein the first inorganic layer, the second inorganic layer, and the third inorganic layer are layered on an edge of the substrate.
9. The OLED display device of claim 7 , wherein at least one of the second inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer is formed by an ALD method.
