Organic light-emitting display apparatus and method of manufacturing the same
In an aspect, an organic light-emitting display apparatus and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The organic light-emitting display apparatus may include a substrate; a display unit formed on the substrate; and a thin film encapsulating layer encapsulating the display unit. The thin film encapsulating layer may include a plurality of organic layers and inorganic layers that are laminated alternately. At least one of the plurality of the inorganic films may include a first layer formed of a first material, a second layer formed of a second material other than the first material, and an intermediate layer provided between the first and second layers.
1. An organic light-emitting display apparatus comprising:
a substrate;
a display unit on the substrate; and
a thin film encapsulating layer encapsulating the display unit,
wherein the thin film encapsulating layer comprises a plurality of organic layers and inorganic layers that are alternately laminated thereon;
wherein at least one of the plurality of the inorganic layers comprises a first layer formed of a first material, a second layer formed of a second material other than the first material, wherein a thickness of the first and second layers ranges from 100 Å to 500 Å, an intermediate layer provided between the first and second layers and, wherein a thickness of the intermediate layer ranges from 50 Å to 100 Å;
wherein the first layer, intermediate layer, and second layer are sequentially laminated, and repeatedly laminated multiple times;
wherein the intermediate layer comprises the first and second materials; and
wherein the areas of the inorganic layers are larger than the areas of the organic layers to surround the organic layers.
2. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first material is silicon oxide and the second material is aluminum oxide.
3. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the first and second layers is 100 Å to 200 Å.
