Abstract

An organic EL display device includes in order from a substrate side: a metal layer; an insulating layer formed on the metal layer; a first electrode layer formed on the insulating layer; an organic layer formed on the first electrode layer; and a second electrode layer formed on the organic layer. The metal layer is for use as a reflective layer configured to reflect, on a surface of the metal layer, light generated from the organic layer by applying a voltage between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer.

Claims (22)

1. An organic EL display device comprising, in order from a substrate side:

a metal layer;

an insulating layer formed on the metal layer;

a first electrode layer formed on the insulating layer;

an organic layer formed on the first electrode layer; and

a second electrode layer formed on the organic layer,

wherein the metal layer is formed so as to have structure in which an Al layer, a Mo layer, and an ITO layer are laminated, and

wherein the metal layer is for use as a reflective layer configured to reflect, on a surface of the Al layer, light generated from the organic layer by applying a voltage between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer.

2. The organic EL display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the metal layer is further for use as auxiliary wiring of the second electrode layer.

3. The organic EL display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the metal layer and the first electrode layer sandwich the insulating layer to form an additional capacitor.

4. The organic EL display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first electrode layer is formed of ITO.

5. A method of manufacturing an organic EL display device, comprising, in order from a substrate side:

forming a metal layer;

forming an insulating layer on the metal layer;

forming a first electrode layer on the insulating layer;

forming an organic layer on the first electrode layer; and

forming a second electrode layer on the organic layer,

wherein the metal layer is formed so as to have structure in which an Al layer, a Mo layer, and an ITO layer are laminated, and

wherein the metal layer is for use as a reflective layer configured to reflect, on a surface of the Al layer, light generated from the organic layer by applying a voltage between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer.
