Abstract

There is provided an organic light emitting display capable of increasing an aperture ratio. The organic light emitting display includes red pixels including red emission regions, green pixels including green emission regions, and blue pixels including blue emission regions. In at least one of the red emission regions, the green emission regions, and the blue emission regions, a distance between an emission region and an adjacent emission region above the emission region is different from a distance between the emission region and another adjacent emission region below the emission region.

Claims (39)

1. An organic light emitting display comprising:

red pixels comprising red emission regions arranged in a first vertical line containing only red pixels;

green pixels comprising green emission regions arranged in a second vertical line containing only green pixels and different from the first vertical line; and

blue pixels comprising blue emission regions arranged in a third vertical line containing only blue pixels and different from the first and second vertical lines,

wherein, for at least one of the red emission regions or the blue emission regions, a distance between an emission region and an adjacent emission region above the emission region is different from a distance between the emission region and another adjacent emission region below the emission region, and

wherein the green emission regions are arranged at uniform intervals.

2. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the blue emission regions comprise a first blue emission region, a second blue emission region, and a third blue emission region, and

wherein the first blue emission region is separated from the second blue emission region positioned above the first blue emission region at a first distance, and is separated from the third blue emission region positioned below the first blue emission region at a second distance different from the first distance.

3. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 2 ,

wherein the blue emission regions positioned in i-th (i is a natural number) horizontal lines are arranged at upper sides of corresponding ones of the blue pixels, and

wherein the blue emission regions positioned in (i+1)th horizontal lines are arranged at lower sides of corresponding ones of the blue pixels.

4. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the red emission regions comprise a first red emission region, a second red emission region, and a third red emission region, and

wherein the first red emission region is separated from the second red emission region positioned above the first red emission region at a first distance, and is separated from the third red emission region positioned below the first red emission region at a second distance different from the first distance.

5. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 4 ,

wherein the red emission regions positioned in i-th (i is a natural number) horizontal lines are arranged at upper sides of corresponding ones of the red pixels, and

wherein the red emission regions positioned in (i+1)th horizontal lines are arranged at lower sides of corresponding ones of the red pixels.

6. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the red pixels, the green pixels, and the blue pixels are arranged in a delta structure where one unit pixel comprises one of the red pixels, one of the green pixels, and one of the blue pixels, and the pixels of the unit pixel are positioned in two horizontal lines.

7. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 6 ,

wherein the blue emission regions positioned in i-th (i is a natural number) horizontal lines are arranged at upper sides of corresponding ones of the blue pixels, and

wherein the blue emission regions positioned in (i+2)th horizontal lines are arranged at lower sides of corresponding ones of the blue pixels.

8. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 7 ,

wherein the red emission regions positioned in i-th (i is a natural number) horizontal lines are arranged at upper sides of corresponding ones of the red pixels, and

wherein the red emission regions positioned in (i+2)th horizontal lines are arranged at lower sides of corresponding ones of the red pixels.

9. An organic light emitting display comprising:

red pixels comprising red emission regions arranged in a first vertical line containing only red pixels;

green pixels comprising green emission regions arranged in a second vertical line containing only green pixels and different from the first vertical line; and

blue pixels comprising blue emission regions arranged in a third vertical line containing only blue pixels and different from the first and second vertical lines,

wherein at least one emission region of the red emission regions or the blue emission regions is non-symmetrically formed in a corresponding one of the pixels including the emission region, and

wherein the green emission regions are arranged at uniform intervals.

10. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the blue emission regions are non-symmetrically formed in the blue pixels.

11. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 10 ,

wherein a blue emission region of the blue emission regions positioned in a first horizontal line is located at an upper side of a corresponding one of the blue pixels, and

wherein a blue emission region of the blue emission regions positioned in a second horizontal line adjacent to the first horizontal line is located at a lower side of a corresponding one of the blue pixels.

12. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the red emission regions are non-symmetrically formed in the red pixels.

13. The organic light emitting display as claimed in claim 12 ,

wherein a red emission region of the red emission regions positioned in a first horizontal line is located at an upper side of a corresponding one of the red pixels, and

wherein a red emission region of the red emission regions positioned in a second horizontal line adjacent to the first horizontal line is located at a lower side of a corresponding one of the red pixels.
