Abstract

A display device is provided including a display region arranged with a plurality of pixels, and a first sealing region arranged in an exterior periphery part of the display region, the display region includes an individual pixel electrode arranged in each of the plurality of pixels, a common pixel electrode arranged in upper layer of the individual pixel electrode and in succession to the plurality of pixels, and a light emitting layer arranged between the individual pixel electrode and the common pixel electrode, and the first sealing region includes a sealing layer arranged on a lower layer than the common pixel electrode and a region stacked with the common pixel electrode extending from the display region, the stacked region being enclosed by the display region.

Claims (40)

1. A display device comprising:

a display region including: a plurality of pixels each having an individual pixel electrode; a common pixel electrode over the pixel electrodes of the plurality of pixels; and a light emitting layer between the individual pixel electrode and the common pixel electrode;

a first sealing region enclosing the display region in an exterior periphery part of the display region;

a sealing layer;

a sealing film on the sealing layer;

a first bank outside the display region; and

a second bank outside the first bank,

wherein:

an end of the light emitting layer and the second bank are separated from each other;

the first bank covers an end of the sealing layer;

the common pixel electrode extending from the display region contacts with the sealing layer directly between the first bank and the second bank; and

the first bank and the second bank cover the sealing layer.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the sealing layer has a recessed portion between the first bank and the second bank in the first sealing region.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the sealing layer includes a conductive material, and

the sealing layer is the same layer as the individual pixel electrode.

4. The display device according to claim 3 , comprising

a cathode contact outside the second bank, wherein

the common pixel electrode is conductive with the cathode contact and,

the cathode contact contacts with the sealing layer directly.

5. The display device according to claim 4 , comprising

a third bank outside the second bank, wherein

the cathode contact contacts with the sealing layer directly between the second bank and the third bank.

6. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the sealing layer and the individual pixel electrode include the same material.

7. The display device according to claim 1 comprising:

a substrate;

a third bank outside the second bank; and

a planarization layer between the substrate and the second and third banks;

wherein

the planarization layer has a recessed portion in the first sealing region,

the second bank and the third bank are in the recessed portion,

the sealing film is on and along the second bank and the third bank, and

a part of sealing film is in the recessed portion.

8. The display device according to claim 1 comprising:

a low voltage power source wire, wherein

the sealing layer is conductive with the low voltage power source wire.

9. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first bank and the sealing layer partially overlap with each other.
