Abstract

The organic light-emitting device of the present invention includes: a substrate; a plurality of organic light-emitting elements formed on the substrate; and an element isolation layer formed between the plurality of organic light-emitting elements, each of the elements having: on the substrate in mentioned order, a first electrode patterned for each of the organic light-emitting elements, an organic compound layer patterned for each of the organic light-emitting elements, and a second electrode; the element isolation layer formed across a space between the plurality of first electrodes to cover the ends of the first electrodes, and having an opening at a portion corresponding to the organic light-emitting elements, and at least a portion of the element isolation layer in contact with the organic compound layer is formed of an inorganic material.

Claims (13)

1. An organic light-emitting device, comprising:

a substrate;

a plurality of organic light-emitting elements formed on the substrate, each of the organic light-emitting elements having, on the substrate in mentioned order, a first electrode patterned for each of the organic light-emitting elements, an organic compound layer patterned for each of the organic light-emitting elements, and a second electrode patterned for each of the organic light-emitting elements;

an element isolation layer formed across a space of a plurality of first electrodes to cover ends of the first electrodes, and having an opening at a portion of each of the organic light-emitting elements;

an inorganic sealing layer formed on the second electrode and the element isolation layer; and

a connection electrode formed on the inorganic sealing layer,

wherein:

the connection electrode is formed on the element isolation layer,

the connection electrode is in electrical contact with the second electrode through a contact hole provided in the inorganic sealing layer,

the element isolation layer and the inorganic sealing layer are in contact with each other,

at least a portion of the element isolation layer in contact with the organic compound layer is formed of an inorganic material,

the second electrode and the inorganic sealing layer each comprise a light transmissive member, and

the connection electrode comprises a light transmissive member continuously formed across a space with the plurality of organic light-emitting elements.
