Abstract

An encapsulation method of an organic light emitting diode (OLED) device is provided. The encapsulation method includes steps of a substrate formed with the OLED device; forming at least an encapsulation film on a surface of the OLED device; and bonding a pre-formed barrier layer to an edge region of the encapsulation film. By bonding the pre-formed barrier layer to the edge region of the encapsulation film, the disclosure can achieve effects of improving an ability of moisture and oxygen resistance of the edge region of the OLED device, thereby improving reliability of encapsulation of the OLED device and prolonging lifetime of the OLED device.

Claims (24)

1. An encapsulation method of an organic light emitting diode (OLED) device, comprising steps of:

providing a substrate formed with the OLED device;

forming at least an encapsulation film on a surface of the OLED device;

bonding a barrier layer to an edge region of the at least an encapsulation film, wherein the barrier layer is pre-formed;

wherein the bonding process is a rolling bonding process or a vacuum bonding process; and

wherein the barrier layer is a ring-shaped structure that surrounds the at least an encapsulation film.

2. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 1 , wherein the step of bonding the pre-formed barrier layer to the edge region of the at least an encapsulation film further comprises steps of:

forming the barrier layer by a low temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition.

3. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 2 , wherein the barrier layer at least partially overlaps the at least an encapsulation film.

4. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 3 , wherein the barrier layer comprises an outer sidewall and an inner sidewall, the outer sidewall and the inner sidewall are oppositely disposed; and wherein the inner sidewall is disposed on a side of the barrier layer adjacent to the at least an encapsulation film, and a distance between the inner sidewall and the outer sidewall is between 0 to 100 micrometers.

5. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 1 , wherein the barrier layer is made of an inorganic material.

6. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 5 , wherein the barrier layer is made of silicon nitride or aluminum oxide.

7. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 1 , wherein the barrier layer at least partially overlaps the at least an encapsulation film.

8. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 7 , wherein the barrier layer comprises an outer sidewall and an inner sidewall, the outer sidewall and the inner sidewall are oppositely disposed; and wherein the inner sidewall is disposed on a side of the barrier layer adjacent to the at least an encapsulation film, and a distance between the inner sidewall and the outer sidewall is between 0 to 100 micrometers.

9. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 1 , wherein the step of bonding the pre-formed barrier layer to the edge region of the at least an encapsulation film further comprises steps of:

forming the barrier layer by a low temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition.

10. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 9 , wherein the barrier layer is a ring-shaped structure for surrounding the at least an encapsulation film.

11. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 10 , wherein the barrier layer at least partially overlaps the at least an encapsulation film.

12. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 11 , wherein the barrier layer comprises an outer sidewall and an inner sidewall, the outer sidewall and the inner sidewall are oppositely disposed; and wherein the inner sidewall is disposed on a side of the barrier layer adjacent to the at least an encapsulation film, and a distance between the inner sidewall and the outer sidewall is between 0 to 100 micrometers.

13. An encapsulation method of an organic light emitting diode (OLED) device, comprising steps of:

providing a substrate formed with the OLED device;

forming at least an encapsulation film on a surface of the OLED device; and

bonding a barrier layer to an edge region of the at least an encapsulation film, wherein the barrier layer is pre-formed.

14. The encapsulation method of the OLED device according to claim 13 , wherein the barrier layer is made of an inorganic material.
