Abstract

An organic light emitting device includes a base substrate having an active area and a pad area, an organic light emitting diode layer disposed on the active area, an encapsulation substrate disposed on the organic light emitting diode layer, a signal pad disposed on the pad area, and a cover layer provided between the active area and the pad area. Further, the cover layer and a portion of the encapsulation substrate are provided outside the active area.

Claims (41)

1. An organic light emitting device comprising:

a base substrate having an active area and a pad area;

an organic light emitting diode layer disposed on the active area;

an encapsulation substrate disposed on the organic light emitting diode layer;

a signal pad disposed on the pad area; and

a cover layer provided between the active area and the pad area,

wherein the cover layer and a portion of the encapsulation substrate are provided outside the active area, and

wherein the cover layer includes a first portion adjacent to the active area and a second portion adjacent to the pad area, the first portion being higher than the second portion.

2. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulation substrate has different thicknesses at the active area and outside the active area.

3. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulation substrate has a stepped height outside the active area.

4. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the cover layer includes a polymer material and is coated on the base substrate.

5. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the base substrate is flexible.

6. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , further comprising:

an adhesive layer disposed on the organic light emitting diode layer,

wherein the cover layer has a greater thickness than the adhesive layer.

7. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the cover layer decreases in thickness from the active area toward the pad area.

8. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the cover layer is sloped from the first portion to the second portion.

9. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the cover layer comprises a curved portion.

10. An organic light emitting device comprising:

a base substrate having an active area and a pad area;

an organic light emitting diode layer disposed on the active area;

an encapsulation substrate disposed on the organic light emitting diode layer;

a signal pad disposed on the pad area; and

a cover layer provided between the active area and the pad area,

wherein the cover layer and a portion of the encapsulation substrate are provided outside the active area, and

wherein the cover layer and the encapsulation substrate are provided to adjoin each other outside the active area.

11. The organic light emitting device of claim 10 , wherein the encapsulation substrate has different thicknesses at the active area and outside the active area.

12. The organic light emitting device of claim 10 , wherein the encapsulation substrate has a stepped height outside the active area.

13. The organic light emitting device of claim 10 , wherein the cover layer includes a polymer material and is coated on the base substrate.

14. The organic light emitting device of claim 10 , wherein the base substrate is flexible.

15. The organic light emitting device of claim 10 , further comprising:

an adhesive layer disposed on the organic light emitting diode layer,

wherein the cover layer has a greater thickness than the adhesive layer.

16. The organic light emitting device of claim 10 , wherein the cover layer decreases in thickness from the active area toward the pad area.

17. The organic light emitting device of claim 10 , wherein the cover layer is sloped from the first portion to the second portion.

18. An organic light emitting device comprising:

a base substrate having an active area and a pad area;

an organic light emitting diode layer disposed on the active area;

an encapsulation substrate disposed on the organic light emitting diode layer;

a signal pad disposed on the pad area; and

a cover layer provided between the active area and the pad area, wherein the cover layer and the encapsulation substrate are provided to adjoin each other outside the active area, and wherein the cover layer decreases in thickness toward the pad area.
