Abstract

A display device includes a first pixel electrode, a second pixel electrode, an insulating layer including a first opening part exposing a part of an upper surface of the first pixel electrode, and a second opening part exposing a part of an upper surface of the second pixel electrode, a first common layer arranged above the first pixel electrode, the second pixel electrode and the insulating layer, a first light-emitting layer a second light-emitting layer arranged above the first common layer; an opposite electrode arranged above the first light-emitting layer and the second light-emitting layer, a carrier absorption layer arranged above the insulating layer, the carrier absorption layer being arranged between the first common layer and the second light-emitting layer, and a light emission start voltage of the second light-emitting layer is lower than a light emission start voltage of the first light-emitting layer.

Claims (19)

1 . A display device comprising:

a first pixel electrode;

a second pixel electrode arranged separately from the first pixel electrode in a first direction;

an insulating layer covering the first pixel electrode and the second pixel electrode, the insulating layer including a first opening part and a second opening part, the first opening part exposing at least a part of an upper surface of the first pixel electrode, and the second opening part exposing at least a part of an upper surface of the second pixel electrode;

a first common layer arranged above the first pixel electrode, the second pixel electrode and the insulating layer;

a first light-emitting layer arranged above the first common layer, the first light-emitting layer being arranged at a position overlapping the first pixel electrode;

a second light-emitting layer arranged above the first common layer, the second light-emitting layer being arranged at a position overlapping the second pixel electrode;

an opposite electrode arranged above the first light-emitting layer and the second light-emitting layer; and

a carrier absorption layer arranged above the insulating layer, the carrier absorption layer being arranged between the first common layer and the second light-emitting layer,

wherein a light emission start voltage of the second light-emitting layer is lower than a light emission start voltage of the first light-emitting layer.

2 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier absorption layer includes a first portion arranged between the first common layer and the second light-emitting layer, and a second portion arranged between the first light-emitting layer and the second light-emitting layer.

3 . The display device according to claim 2 , wherein the carrier absorption layer is arranged closer to the second opening part than the first opening part.

4 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first light-emitting layer has an electron transport property, and the first common layer has a hole transport property when the first pixel electrode and the second pixel electrode are anodes.

5 . The display device according to claim 4 , wherein the carrier absorption layer includes an electron transport material.

6 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first light-emitting layer has a hole transport property and the first common layer has an electron transport property when the first pixel electrode and the second pixel electrode are cathodes.

7 . The display device according to claim 6 , wherein the carrier absorption layer includes a hole transport material.

8 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein an emission peak wavelength of the first light-emitting layer is 460 nm or more and 500 nm or less.

9 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein an emission peak wavelength of the first light-emitting layer is 610 nm or more and 780 nm or less.

10 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein an emission peak wavelength of the first light-emitting layer is 500 nm or more and 570 nm or less.
