Abstract

An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display includes a red pixel, a green pixel, and a blue pixel. The red pixel, the green pixel and the blue pixel each includes: a pixel electrode; a hole auxiliary layer on the pixel electrode; a blue organic emission layer on the hole auxiliary layer; an electron auxiliary layer on the blue organic emission layer; and a common electrode on the electron auxiliary layer. The red pixel and the green pixel include: a red boundary layer and a green boundary layer, respectively; a red resonance assistance layer and a green resonance assistance layer, respectively; and a red organic emission layer and a green organic emission layer formed between the red resonance assistance layer and the blue organic emission layer, and between the green resonance assistance layer and the blue organic emission layer, respectively.
