Organic light-emitting display apparatus
An organic light-emitting display apparatus includes a first substrate, a display unit defining an active area on the first substrate and including an insulating layer, a second substrate on the display unit, one or more signal lines outside the active area and on the insulating layer, and a sealant between the first substrate and the second substrate. The sealant bonds the first substrate and the second substrate, and covers at least a portion of the signal lines.
1. An organic light-emitting display apparatus comprising:
a first substrate;
a display unit defining an active area on the first substrate and comprising an insulating layer;
a second substrate on the display unit;
one or more signal lines outside the active area and on the insulating layer, the signal lines being between the insulating layer and the second substrate; and
a sealant between the first substrate and the second substrate and on the insulating layer, the insulating layer being between the first substrate and the sealant, the sealant bonding the first substrate and the second substrate, and covering at least a portion of the signal lines,
wherein the insulating layer has a first hole filled with the sealant.
2. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 1 ,
wherein the display unit comprises an organic light-emitting device comprising a first electrode, a second electrode, and an intermediate layer between the first electrode and second electrode, and
wherein the signal lines are electrically connected to the second electrode.
3. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 2 , further comprising:
a passivation layer on the insulating layer; and
a metal layer on the passivation layer and electrically connecting the second electrode and the signal lines.
4. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the metal layer comprises a same material as the first electrode.
5. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 3 , further comprising a pixel-defining layer covering the metal layer and having a contact hole, wherein the second electrode is on the pixel-defining layer and contacts the metal layer through the contact hole.
6. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the pixel-defining layer is separated from the sealant.
7. An organic light-emitting display apparatus comprising:
a first substrate;
a display unit defining an active area on the first substrate and comprising an insulating layer;
a second substrate on the display unit;
one or more signal lines outside the active area and on the insulating layer;
a pixel-defining layer on the signal lines and having a first hole; and
a sealant between the first substrate and the second substrate, bonding the first substrate and the second substrate, covering at least a portion of the signal lines and at least a portion of the pixel-defining layer, and contacting the signal lines through the first hole.
8. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 7 ,
wherein the display unit comprises an organic light-emitting device comprising a first electrode, a second electrode, and an intermediate layer between the first and second electrodes, and
wherein the signal lines are electrically connected to the second electrode.
9. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 8 , further comprising:
a passivation layer on the insulating layer; and
a metal layer on the passivation layer and electrically connecting the second electrode and the signal lines by contacting the signal lines.
10. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the metal layer comprises a same material as the first electrode.
11. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 9 ,
wherein the pixel-defining layer is on the metal layer and has a contact hole, and
wherein the second electrode is on the pixel-defining layer and contacts the metal layer through the contact hole.
12. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the sealant is separated from the second electrode.
13. The organic light-emitting display apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the insulating layer has a second hole filled with the sealant.
