Abstract

An organic light emitting display device including a plurality of pixels having a first sub-pixel and a second sub-pixel comprises a base substrate; a first anode disposed on the base substrate in the first sub-pixel; a second anode disposed on the base substrate in the second sub-pixel; an anode connection part connected to the first and second anodes; a driving transistor including a drain electrode that contacts the anode connection part and switching a driving power supplied to the first and second anodes; an organic light emitting layer disposed on the first and second anodes; a cathode disposed on the organic light emitting layer; and a dummy repair part including a plurality of metal layers overlapping each other with an insulating film interposed therebetween in a laser irradiation area, wherein at least one metal layer among the plurality of metal layers contacts the drain electrode and the cathode has an opened shape in the laser irradiation area.

Claims (23)

1. An organic light emitting display device including a plurality of pixels having a first sub-pixel and a second sub-pixel, comprising:

a base substrate;

a first anode disposed on the base substrate in the first sub-pixel;

a second anode disposed on the base substrate in the second sub-pixel;

an anode connection part connected to the first and second anodes;

a driving transistor including a drain electrode that contacts the anode connection part and switching a driving power supplied to the first and second anodes;

an organic light emitting layer disposed on the first and second anodes;

a cathode disposed on the organic light emitting layer; and

a dummy repair part including a plurality of metal layers overlapping each other with an insulating film interposed therebetween in a laser irradiation area,

wherein at least one metal layer among the plurality of metal layers contacts the drain electrode and the cathode has an opening portion that exposes the dummy repair part located in the laser irradiation area.

2. The organic light emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein the cathode has a discontinuous shape in the laser irradiation area and a peripheral area of the laser irradiation area.

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

an interlayer insulating film disposed at the dummy repair part; and

a bank layer disposed on the interlayer insulating film and having a through hole in the laser irradiation area,

wherein in the interlayer insulating film has an undercut in correspondence with the through hole.

4. The organic light emitting display device of claim 3 , wherein the anode connection part is disposed between the first anode and the second anode.

5. The organic light emitting display device of claim 4 , wherein the first anode is positioned at one side of the anode connection part and the second anode is positioned at the other side of the anode connection part.

6. The organic light emitting display device of claim 5 , wherein the dummy repair part comprises:

a first metal layer disposed on the base substrate to be spaced apart from the drain electrode of the driving transistor and contacting the anode branch part; and

a second metal layer disposed below the first metal layer, overlapping the first metal layer with the insulating film interposed therebetween in the laser irradiation area and contacting the drain electrode of the driving transistor.

7. The organic light emitting display device of claim 6 , further comprising a light shield layer disposed between the base substrate and an active pattern of the driving transistor and including a material for blocking light,

wherein the second metal layer and the light shield layer include a same material.

8. The organic light emitting display device of claim 3 , further comprising an anode branch part having the shape branched from any one of the first and second anodes, and contacting the dummy repair part.
