Abstract

An organic light emitting display panel including a partition wall to prevent different organic light emitting materials from being mixed with each other between adjacent light emitting areas. The partition wall may protrude from a surface of a pixel definition layer or a first common layer. Accordingly, desired light colors are generated by organic light emitting patterns respectively disposed in the light emitting areas.

Claims (16)

1. An organic light emitting display panel comprising:

a base substrate;

a first electrode layer having a plurality of first electrodes on the base substrate;

a pixel definition layer having a plurality of openings to respectively expose the first electrodes;

a first common layer comprising a partition wall protruding from and integrally formed with a surface thereof, the first common layer covering the first electrodes and the pixel definition layer, and the partition wall being overlapped with the pixel definition layer;

an organic light emitting layer on the first common layer and comprising a plurality of organic light emitting patterns corresponding to the first electrodes, respectively; and

a second electrode layer on the organic light emitting layer.

2. The organic light emitting display panel of claim 1 , wherein the first common layer comprises at least one of a hole injection layer or a hole transfer layer.

3. The organic light emitting display panel of claim 2 , wherein the first common layer comprises the hole injection layer and the hole transfer layer on the hole injection layer, and the partition wall protrudes from the hole injection layer.

4. The organic light emitting display panel of claim 2 , further comprising a second common layer between the organic light emitting layer and the second electrode layer.

5. The organic light emitting display panel of claim 4 , wherein the second common layer comprises at least one of an electron injection layer or an electron transfer layer.

6. The organic light emitting display panel of claim 1 , wherein the first electrodes are in a matrix form with rows and columns, and the partition wall comprises a first portion extending in a row direction and a second portion extending in a column direction.

7. The organic light emitting display panel of claim 6 , wherein the first portion of the partition is integrally formed with the second portion of the partition wall.

8. The organic light emitting display panel of claim 6 ,

wherein the first portion is one of a plurality of first portions, each first portion being between two first electrodes adjacent to each other in the column direction, and

wherein the second portion is one of a plurality of second portions, each second portion being between two first electrodes adjacent to each other in the row direction.
