Abstract

A packaging structure with groove includes a substrate, a lower conductive layer, an optical element, a sealing layer and a barrier layer. The lower conductive layer is arranged on one face of the substrate. The optical element is arranged on one face of the lower conductive layer. The upper conductive layer is arranged on one face of the optical element. The packaging structure further comprises a groove defined on an inactive area of the optical element. The sealing layer is arranged on one face of the optical element and on one face of the upper conductive layer. The barrier layer is arranged on one face of the sealing layer. Because the groove is formed on inactive area of the optical element to enhance lateral sealing tightness, extended interface is provided between sealing layer/barrier layer and the substrate, thus enhance the water-resistant and gas-resistant property for package.

Claims (33)

1. A packaging structure with groove, the packaging structure comprising:

a substrate;

a lower conductive layer arranged on the substrate;

an optical element arranged on the lower conductive layer; and

an upper conductive layer arranged on the optical element;

wherein the optical element comprises a groove disposed on an inactive area thereof away from the upper conductive layer, the packaging structure further comprises a sealing layer disposed on one the optical element and the upper conductive layer, and a barrier layer disposed on the sealing layer, the sealing layer comprises a concave portion corresponding to the groove,

the groove comprises a plurality of layers of annular groove structures or loop groove structures repeatedly stacked on each other.

2. The packaging structure with groove in claim 1 , wherein the substrate is light-transparent plastic substrate or light-transparent glass substrate.

3. The packaging structure with groove in claim 1 , further comprising a cured layer between the substrate and the lower conductive layer.

4. The packaging structure with groove in claim 1 , wherein the optical element is organic light emitting diode (OLED), electro-chromic display, or photovoltaic cell.

5. The packaging structure with groove in claim 4 , wherein the photovoltaic cell is organic solar cell or perovskite thin film solar cell.

6. The packaging structure with groove in claim 1 , wherein the groove has width of 10 μm-100 μm.

7. The packaging structure with groove in claim 1 , wherein the sealing layer is inorganic metallic oxide.

8. The packaging structure with groove in claim 7 , wherein the inorganic metallic oxide is aluminum oxide, zinc oxide, zicronium oxide, silicon oxide, hafnium oxide or the combination thereof.

9. The packaging structure with groove in claim 1 , wherein the barrier layer is poly sodium metasilicate, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyacrylate, polyvinyl butyral (PVB), poly hydroxyethyl methacrylate (pHEMA), epoxy or the combination thereof.

10. The packaging structure with groove in claim 1 , wherein the sealing layer and the barrier layer are repeatedly and alternately stacked.

11. A packaging structure with groove, the packaging structure comprising:

a substrate;

a first sealing layer arranged on the substrate;

a lower conductive layer arranged on the first sealing layer;

an optical element arranged on the lower conductive layer; and

an upper conductive layer arranged on the optical element;

wherein the optical element comprises a groove disposed on an inactive area thereof away from the upper conductive layer, the packaging structure further comprises a second sealing layer disposed on the optical element and the upper conductive layer, and a barrier layer disposed on the second sealing layer, the second sealing layer comprises a concave portion corresponding to the groove,

the groove comprises a plurality of layers of annular groove structures or loop groove structures repeatedly stacked on each other.

12. The packaging structure with groove in claim 11 , wherein the substrate is light-transparent plastic substrate or light-transparent glass substrate.

13. The packaging structure with groove in claim 11 , further comprising a cured layer between the substrate and the lower conductive layer.

14. The packaging structure with groove in claim 11 , wherein the optical element is organic light emitting diode (OLED), electro-chromic display, or photovoltaic cell.

15. The packaging structure with groove in claim 14 , wherein the photovoltaic cell is organic solar cell or perovskite thin film solar cell.

16. The packaging structure with groove in claim 11 , wherein the groove has width of 10 μm-100 μm.

17. The packaging structure with groove in claim 11 , wherein the first sealing layer and the second sealing layer are inorganic metallic oxide.

18. The packaging structure with groove in claim 17 , wherein the inorganic metallic oxide is aluminum oxide, zinc oxide, zicronium oxide, silicon oxide, hafnium oxide or the combination thereof.

19. The packaging structure with groove in claim 11 , wherein the barrier layer is poly sodium metasilicate, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyacrylate, polyvinyl butyral (PVB), poly hydroxyethyl methacrylate (pHEMA), epoxy or the combination thereof.
