Abstract

A flexible display panel and a method of manufacturing the same. The flexible display panel includes: a flexible panel including a display region and a non-display region, wherein the display region includes an organic light emitting device; a planarization layer disposed on the flexible panel; and a metal-dielectric layer disposed on the planarization layer and including a metal layer and a dielectric layer.

Claims (27)

1. A flexible display panel, comprising:

a flexible panel comprising a display region and a non-display region, the display region comprising an organic light emitting device;

a planarization layer disposed on the flexible panel; and

a metal-dielectric layer disposed on the planarization layer and comprising a metal layer and a dielectric layer.

2. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , wherein the metal-dielectric layer comprises a plurality of the metal layers and the dielectric layers, which are alternately stacked.

3. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , wherein the metal-dielectric layer further comprises a metal pattern layer disposed directly on the planarization layer and having a thickness equal to or greater than the thicknesses of the metal layer and the dielectric layer, and

wherein the lowest one of the plurality of dielectric layers covers the metal pattern and separates the metal pattern from the metal layer.

4. The flexible display panel of claim 3 , wherein the metal pattern layer is disposed directly above a non-emission region in the display region.

5. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , further comprising a black matrix layer disposed on the metal-dielectric layer.

6. The flexible display panel of claim 5 , wherein the black matrix layer is disposed directly above a non-emission region in the display region.

7. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , further comprising a touch screen panel and a window layer disposed on the metal-dielectric layer.

8. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , wherein the planarization layer comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of SiO 2 , TiO 2 , ZrO 2 , Ta 2 O 5 , HfO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , ZnO, Y 2 O 3 , BeO, MgO, PbO 2 , WO 3 , VOX, SiNx, AlNx, ZnS, CdS, SiC, SiCN, LiF, CaF 2 , MgF 2 , NaF, BaF 2 , PbF 2 , LaF 3 , and GaP.

9. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , wherein the planarization layer comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of an epoxy-based resin, an acryl-based resin, a perylene-based resin, and a polyimide resin.

10. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , wherein the metal layer comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of Al, Ag, Mg, Cr, Ti, Ni, Au, Ta, Cu, Ca, Co, Fe, Mo, W, Pt, and Yb.

11. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , wherein the dielectric layer comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of SiO 2 , TiO 2 , ZrO 2 , Ta 2 O5, HfO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , ZnO, Y 2 O 3 , BeO, MgO, PbO 2 , WO 3 , VOX, SiNx, AlNx, ZnS, CdS, SiC, SiCN, LiF, CaF 2 , MgF 2 , NaF, BaF 2 , PbF 2 , LaF 3 , and GaP.

12. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , wherein the dielectric layer comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of an epoxy-based resin, an acryl-based resin, a perylene-based resin, and a polyimide resin.

13. The flexible display panel of claim 1 , wherein the display region comprises:

at least one thin film transistor; and

an organic light emitting device electrically connected to the at least one thin film transistor, the organic light emitting device comprising:

a first electrode layer;

a second electrode layer facing the first electrode layer; and

an organic emission layer disposed between the first and second electrode layers.

14. A flexible display panel comprising:

a flexible panel comprising an organic light emitting device disposed on a substrate; and

an anti-reflection layer disposed on the flexible panel and having a polarization characteristic,

wherein the anti-reflection layer comprises a plurality of metal layers alternately stacked with a plurality of dielectric layers.

15. The flexible display panel of claim 14 , wherein the anti-reflection layer further comprises a planarization layer.
