Abstract

A display device includes: a substrate; a pixel defining layer defining a pixel region on the substrate; a first electrode on the pixel region; a light emitting layer on the first electrode; a second electrode on the light emitting layer; a thin film encapsulation layer on the second electrode; a metal pattern on the thin film encapsulation layer and overlapping the pixel defining layer; and a multi-layer thin film layer on the metal pattern and the thin film encapsulation layer.

Claims (18)

1. A display device comprising:

a substrate;

a pixel defining layer defining a pixel region on the substrate;

a first electrode on the pixel region;

a light emitting layer on the first electrode;

a second electrode on the light emitting layer;

a thin film encapsulation layer on the second electrode;

a metal pattern on the thin film encapsulation layer and overlapping the pixel defining layer; and

a multi-layer thin film layer on the metal pattern and the thin film encapsulation layer.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the metal pattern comprises molybdenum (Mo).

3. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the multi-layer thin film layer comprises at least one dielectric layer and at least one metal layer, and

the dielectric layer and the metal layer are alternately laminated.

4. The display device of claim 3 , wherein the dielectric layer is on the metal pattern.

5. The display device of claim 3 , wherein the dielectric layer comprises at least one of silicon oxides (SiO x , x≧1), silicon nitrides (SiN x , x≧1), magnesium fluorides (MgF 2 ), calcium fluorides (CaF 2 ), aluminum oxides (Al 2 O 3 ), tin oxides (SnO 2 ), indium tin oxides (ITO), indium zinc oxides (IZO), zinc oxides (ZnO), tantalum oxides (Ta 2 O 5 ), niobium oxides (Nb 2 O 5 ), hafnium oxides (HfO 2 ), titanium oxides (TiO 2 ), and indium oxides (In 2 O 3 ).

6. The display device of claim 3 , wherein the metal layer comprises at least one of chromium (Cr), titanium (Ti), molybdenum (Mo), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), tungsten (W), aluminum (Al), silver (Ag), gold (Au), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), magnesium (Mg), and platinum (Pt).

7. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the thin film encapsulation layer comprises at least one organic layer and at least one inorganic layer, and,

the organic layer and the inorganic layer are alternately laminated.

8. The display device of claim 1 , further comprising a capping layer between the thin film encapsulation layer and the second electrode.
