Abstract

An OLED panel may include a substrate including a first region and a second region disposed along a first direction. A plurality of first pixels are disposed in the first region on the substrate, the first pixels each having a first area, the first pixels each comprising a first unit pixel, a second unit pixel disposed along a second direction from the first unit pixel, and a transmission portion disposed along the first direction from the first unit pixel and the second unit pixel. A plurality of second pixels are disposed in the second region on the substrate, the second pixels each having a second area less than the first area, the second pixels each comprising a third unit pixel. The first unit pixel, the second unit pixel, and the third unit pixel may have substantially the same shape as each other.

Claims (34)

1. An organic light emitting display (OLED) panel, comprising:

a substrate including a first region and a second region disposed along a first direction;

a plurality of first sub-pixels disposed in a first sub-region that is a portion of the first region;

a transmission portion disposed in the first sub-region; and

a plurality of second sub-pixels disposed in a second sub-region that is a portion of the second region and has a same area as that of the first sub-region,

wherein at least one of the second sub-pixels is disposed in a region in the second sub-region which corresponds to a region in which the transmission portion is disposed in the first sub-region, and

wherein a number of the second sub-pixels in the second sub-region is greater than a number of the first sub-pixels in the first sub-region.

2. The OLED panel of claim 1 , wherein each of the first and second sub-pixels includes:

a pixel electrode disposed on the substrate;

a common electrode facing the pixel electrode; and

an organic light emitting layer disposed between the pixel electrode and the common electrode.

3. The OLED panel of claim 2 , wherein the common electrodes of the first and second sub-pixels are commonly connected.

4. The OLED panel of claim 2 , wherein the transmission portion includes a dummy organic light emitting layer disposed on the substrate.

5. The OLED panel of claim 4 , wherein a distance between a lower surface of the dummy organic light emitting layer and an upper surface of the substrate is less than a distance between a lower surface of the organic light emitting layer and the upper surface of the substrate.

6. The OLED panel of claim 2 , further comprising:

a shielding member disposed on the common electrode and between the first and second sub-pixels.

7. The OLED panel of claim 2 , further comprising:

a color filter disposed on the common electrode to correspond to each of the first and second sub-pixels.

8. The OLED panel of claim 2 , further comprising:

a polarizing member disposed on the common electrode and not overlapping the transmission portion.

9. The OLED panel of claim 1 , wherein the first sub-pixels include a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel,

wherein the second sub-pixels include a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel, and

wherein an arrangement of the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel included in the first sub-pixels is a same as an arrangement of the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel included in the second sub-pixels.

10. The OLED panel of claim 9 , wherein each of the red, green, and blue sub-pixels included in the first and second sub-pixels includes:

a pixel electrode disposed on the substrate;

a common electrode facing the pixel electrode; and

an organic light emitting layer disposed between the pixel electrode and the common electrode.

11. The OLED panel of claim 1 , wherein each of the first and second sub-pixels and the transmission portion includes an organic light emitting layer disposed on the substrate.

12. The OLED panel of claim 1 , further comprising:

a shielding member disposed between the first and second sub-pixels.

13. The OLED panel of claim 1 , further comprising:

a color filter disposed to correspond to each of the first and second sub-pixels.

14. The OLED panel of claim 1 , further comprising:

a polarizing member disposed not to overlap the transmission portion.
