Abstract

A display unit including a first substrate and a second substrate that are disposed to face each other, a first organic insulating layer on the first substrate, a plurality of light-emitting elements arrayed in a display region, the display region on the first organic insulating layer and facing the second substrate and a first moisture-proof film covering the first organic insulating layer in a peripheral region, in which the peripheral region is provided on the first substrate and surrounds the display region.

Claims (44)

1. A display unit comprising:

a first substrate with a display region;

a plurality of light-emitting elements in the display region, each light-emitting element including a luminous layer;

a first inorganic layer in a first level between the first substrate and the luminous layers of the light-emitting elements;

a second inorganic layer covering the luminous layers of the light-emitting elements;

a third inorganic layer in a second level between the first inorganic layer and the second inorganic layer;

a first organic layer in a region outside of the display region and in a third level between the second inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer, the region outside of the display region being on the first substrate and surrounding the display region, the first organic layer having an outer edge which is in the region outside of the display region and which is covered and sealed in the region outside of the display region by the second inorganic layer; and

a second organic layer in the region outside of the display region and in a fourth level between the first inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer, the second organic layer having an outer edge which is in the region outside of the display region and which is covered and sealed in the region outside of the display region by the second inorganic layer,

wherein,

the third inorganic layer is distinct from any wiring layer, is non-conductive, and is located between the first and the second organic layers,

the first organic layer and the second organic layer are covered by the second inorganic layer and sealed by the second inorganic layer,

the second inorganic layer directly contacts the third inorganic layer at the outermost edge of the first organic layer, and

an outermost edge portion of the second organic layer directly contacts and is sandwiched by the first inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer.

2. The display unit of claim 1 , wherein the first inorganic layer, the second inorganic layer, and the third inorganic layer are moisture proof films.

3. A display unit comprising:

a first substrate with a display region;

a plurality of light-emitting elements disposed in the display region, and each including a luminous layer;

a first inorganic layer in a first level between the first substrate and the luminous layers of the light-emitting elements;

a second inorganic layer covering the luminous layers of the light-emitting elements;

a third inorganic layer in a second level between the first inorganic layer and the second inorganic layer;

a first organic layer in a region outside of the display region and in a third level between the second inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer, the region outside of the display region being on the first substrate and surrounding the display region, the first organic layer having an outer edge which is in the region outside of the display region and which is covered and sealed in the region outside of the display region by the second inorganic layer; and

a second organic layer in the region outside of the display region and in a fourth level between the first inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer, the second organic layer having an outer edge which is in the region outside of the display region and covered and sealed in the region outside of the display region by one of the inorganic layers,

wherein,

the third inorganic layer is distinct from any wiring layer, is non-conductive, and is located between the first organic layer and the second organic layer,

the second inorganic layer covers the outer edge of the first organic layer and the outer edge of the second organic layer,

a first pair of the inorganic layers, one of which covers a side wall of the first organic layer and the other of which is located below the first organic layer, contact each other at the outer edge of the first organic layer,

a second pair of the inorganic layers, one of which covers a side wall of the second organic layer and the other of which is located below the second organic layer, contact each other at the outer edge of the second organic layer,

the second inorganic layer directly contacts the third inorganic layer at the outermost edge of the first organic layer, and

an outermost edge portion of the second organic layer directly contacts and is sandwiched by the first inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer.

4. The display unit of claim 3 , wherein the outer edge of the second organic layer is outside of the outer edge of the first organic layer on the first substrate.

5. The display unit of claim 3 , wherein the first inorganic layer, the second inorganic layer, and the third inorganic layer are moisture proof films.

6. A display unit comprising:

a first substrate with a display region;

a plurality of light-emitting elements in the display region, each light-emitting element including a luminous layer;

a first inorganic layer in a first level between the first substrate and the luminous layers of the light-emitting elements;

a second inorganic layer that covers the luminous layers of the light-emitting elements;

a third inorganic layer in a second level between the first inorganic layer and the second inorganic layer;

a first organic layer in a region outside of the display region and in a third level between the second inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer, the region outside of the display region being on the first substrate and surrounding the display region, the first organic layer having an outer edge which is in the region outside of the display region and which is covered and sealed in the region outside of the display region by the second inorganic layer; and

a second organic layer in the region outside of the display region, and in a fourth level between the first inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer, the second organic layer having an outer edge which is in the region outside of the display region and which is covered and sealed in the region outside of the display region by the second inorganic layer,

wherein,

the third inorganic layer is distinct from any wiring layer, is non-conductive, and is located between the first organic layer and the second organic layer,

the first inorganic layer, the second inorganic layer, and the third inorganic layer are moisture proof films,

an outermost edge portion of the second organic layer directly contacts and is sandwiched by the first inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer, and

an outermost edge portion of the first organic layer directly contacts and is sandwiched by the second inorganic layer and the third inorganic layer.
