Abstract

A display device includes a first pixel electrode, a second pixel electrode arranged in a first direction and spaced apart from the first pixel electrode, an insulating layer having a first opening exposing at least a portion of a top surface of the first pixel electrode and a second opening exposing at least a portion of a top surface of the second pixel electrode, a first common layer arranged on the first pixel electrode, the second pixel electrode, and the insulating layer, a first light-emitting layer arranged on the first common layer, and overlapping the first pixel electrode, a second light-emitting layer arranged on the first common layer, overlapping the second pixel electrode, and having a lower emission starting voltage than that of the first light-emitting layer, and a counter electrode arranged on the first light-emitting layer and the second light-emitting layer.

Claims (34)

1 . A display device comprising:

a first pixel electrode;

a second pixel electrode arranged in a first direction and spaced apart from the first pixel electrode;

an insulating layer having a first opening exposing at least a portion of a top surface of the first pixel electrode and a second opening exposing at least a portion of a top surface of the second pixel electrode;

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

a first light-emitting layer arranged on the first common layer, and overlapping the first pixel electrode;

a second light-emitting layer arranged on the first common layer, overlapping the second pixel electrode, and having a lower emission starting voltage than that of the first light-emitting layer; and

a counter electrode arranged on the first light-emitting layer and the second light-emitting layer,

wherein

the first light-emitting layer is spread over the insulating layer and an edge the first light-emitting layer is arranged on an inclined surface of the second opening in the insulating layer, and the second light-emitting layer includes a region overlapping the first light-emitting layer.

2 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first light-emitting layer is arranged on the first common layer side, in a region where the first light-emitting layer and the second light-emitting layer are overlapped each other.

3 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first and second pixel electrodes are anodes, the first light-emitting layer has electron transport properties, and the first common layer has hole transport properties.

4 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first and second pixel electrodes are cathodes, the first light-emitting layer has hole transport properties, and the first common layer has electron transport properties.

5 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

an edge of the second light-emitting layer overlaps the first light-emitting layer and is arranged closer to the first opening than an intermediate portion between the first and second openings.

6 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

an edge of the second light-emitting layer overlaps the first light-emitting layer and is arranged on an inclined surface of the first opening in the insulating layer.

7 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

a second common layer is further arranged between the first and second light-emitting layers and the counter electrode.

8 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

a third pixel electrode is arranged apart from the first pixel electrode,

the insulating layer has a third opening exposing the third pixel electrode, and

the edge of the first light-emitting layer is arranged on the inclined surface of the third opening in the insulating layer.

9 . The display device according to claim 8 , further comprising:

a third light-emitting layer arranged between the first common layer and the counter electrode, has a lower emission start voltage than the of the first light-emitting layer and overlaps a portion of the first light-emitting layer and the third pixel electrode on the first common layer.

10 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

an emission peak wavelength of the first emission layer is 460 nm or more, 500 nm or less.

11 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

an emission peak wavelength of the first light-emitting layer is 610 nm or more, 780 nm or less.

12 . The display device according to claim 8 , wherein

an emission peak wavelength of the first light-emitting layer is 460 nm or more, 500 nm or less.
