Abstract

A method of manufacturing an OLED device includes: preparing a substrate on which a first conductive layer and a pixel defining film defining a plurality of pixels and exposing the first conductive layer for each of the plurality of pixels; disposing a photoresist pattern on the pixel defining film, the photoresist pattern comprising an opening exposing a first pixel of the plurality of pixels; disposing a first material layer onto an entire surface of the substrate to simultaneously dispose an organic light-emitting layer and a first deposition layer; disposing a second material layer onto the entire surface of the substrate to simultaneously dispose a second conductive layer and a second deposition layer; disposing a third material layer onto the entire surface of the substrate to simultaneously dispose a protection layer and a third deposition layer; and removing the photoresist pattern and the first, second, and third deposition layers.

Claims (23)

1. A light-emitting display device, comprising:

a substrate;

a first conductive layer disposed on the substrate;

a first insulating layer disposed on the first conductive layer, the first insulating layer including an opening exposing a portion of the first conductive layer;

a light-emitting layer disposed on the portion of the first conductive layer;

a second conductive layer disposed on the light-emitting layer;

a second insulating layer disposed on the second conductive layer and exposing a portion of the second conductive layer; and

a sub-conductive layer disposed on the first insulating layer, the sub-conductive layer contacting the portion of the second conductive layer,

wherein the first insulating layer comprises:

a first layer disposed on the first conductive layer; and

a second layer disposed between the first layer and the sub-conductive layer.

2. The light-emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein the second layer covers the first layer, and

wherein the sub-conductive layer is in direct contact with the second layer of the first insulating layer.

3. The light-emitting display device of claim 2 , wherein the first layer of the first insulating layer is not in contact with the sub-conductive layer, the second conductive layer, and the light-emitting layer.

4. The light-emitting display device of claim 2 , wherein the first layer of the first insulating layer comprises an organic material, and

wherein the second layer of the first insulating layer comprises an inorganic material.

5. The light-emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein the second insulating layer comprises a plurality of second insulating layers, each of the plurality of the second insulating layers being separated from each other.

6. The light-emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein the second conductive layer is in direct contact with the second layer of the first insulating layer.

7. The light-emitting display device of claim 5 , wherein the second conductive layer comprises a plurality of second conductive layers, each of the plurality of the second conductive layers being separated from each other.

8. The light-emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the sub-conductive layer is disposed on an upper surface of the second insulating layer.

9. The light-emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein the light-emitting layer is surrounded and sealed by the second insulating layer, the first insulating layer, the first conductive layer, and the sub-conductive layer.

10. The light-emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the second insulating layer does not overlap the sub-conductive layer in a plan view.

11. The light-emitting display device of claim 1 , further comprising a sub-protection layer covering the second insulating layer and the sub-conductive layer, the sub-protection layer being in direct contact with the sub-conductive layer.
