Abstract

A display device is provided including a first electrodes arranged in a matrix shape above an insulation surface, a bank covering an end part of the first electrode and having an opening part exposing an upper surface of the first electrode, an organic layer covering the opening part and including a light emitting layer, and a second electrode covering the bank and the organic layer, wherein the bank has an upper surface part and an inclined part between the upper surface part and an opening in the bank, and a surface of the inclined part has a plurality of concave and convex parts.

Claims (16)

1. A display device comprising:

a first electrode arranged in a matrix shape above an insulation surface;

a bank covering an end part of the first electrode and having an opening part exposing an upper surface of the first electrode;

an organic layer covering the opening part and including a light emitting layer; and

a second electrode covering the bank and the organic layer, wherein

the bank has an upper surface part and an inclined part between the upper surface part and the opening in the bank,

a surface of the inclined part has a plurality of concave and convex parts, each of the plurality of concave and convex parts are ring shaped by surrounding the opening part in a planar view,

a cycle of the plurality of concave and convex parts is in a range of 150 nm to 250 nm, and

the plurality of concave and convex parts and the bank consist of same material.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of concave and convex parts have a cyclical banded shape in a film thickness direction.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the bank is a photosensitive organic resin material.

4. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein a film thickness of the bank is set as D 1 and a width of the inclined part of the bank in a plane direction is set as D 2 , D 2 is smaller than D 1 .

5. The display device according to claim 4 , wherein an end part of the first electrode is further to the outer side than the inclined part seen in a planar view.

6. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the upper surface part is flat.

7. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the organic layer has the plurality of concave and convex parts above the inclined part.

8. The display device according to claim 7 , wherein a second electrode has the plurality of concave and convex parts above the inclined part.
