Abstract

According to an aspect, a display device includes: a substrate; a plurality of pixels provided on the substrate; and a first light emitting element and a second light emitting element that are included in each of the pixels. A light emitting layer of the first light emitting element includes gallium nitride to which europium is added, and a light emitting layer of the second light emitting element includes a multi-quantum well structure in which indium gallium nitride and gallium nitride are layered.

Claims (40)

1. A display device comprising:

a substrate;

a plurality of pixels provided on the substrate; and

a first light emitting element and a second light emitting element that are included in each of the pixels, wherein

a light emitting layer of the first light emitting element includes gallium nitride to which europium is added, and

a light emitting layer of the second light emitting element includes a multi-quantum well structure in which indium gallium nitride and gallium nitride are layered.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first light emitting element is configured to output first red light,

the second light emitting element is configured to output second red light, and

a half width of a spectrum of the first red light is less than a half width of a spectrum of the second red light.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a third light emitting element configured to output green light; and

a fourth light emitting element configured to output blue light, wherein

the first light emitting element and the second light emitting element are disposed in a first direction, and

the second light emitting element and the third light emitting element or the fourth light emitting element are disposed in a second direction intersecting the first direction.

4. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a third light emitting element configured to output green light; and

a fourth light emitting element configured to output blue light, wherein

the first light emitting element and one of the third light emitting element and the fourth light emitting element are disposed in a first direction, and

the second light emitting element and the one of the third light emitting element and the fourth light emitting element are disposed in a second direction intersecting the first direction.

5. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first light emitting element is turned on when an input gradation value of the pixel is equal to or smaller than a first threshold, and

the first light emitting element and the second light emitting element are turned on when the input gradation value of the pixel is larger than the first threshold and smaller than a second threshold that is larger than the first threshold.

6. The display device according to claim 5 , wherein the first light emitting element is turned on when the input gradation value of the pixel is equal to or larger than the second threshold.

7. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a first pixel group and a second pixel group each including the first light emitting element and the second light emitting element and disposed adjacent to each other, wherein

when a drive current to be supplied to the second light emitting element calculated based on the input gradation value of the first pixel group is higher than a threshold current, the second light emitting element of the first pixel group is turned on with an output gradation value smaller than a gradation value corresponding to an input gradation value, and the second light emitting element of the second pixel group is turned on with an output gradation value larger than the gradation value corresponding to an input gradation value.

8. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the multi-quantum well structure includes first layers formed of indium gallium nitride and second layers formed of gallium nitride.

9. A display device comprising:

a substrate;

a plurality of pixels provided on the substrate; and

a first light emitting element and a second light emitting element that are included in each of the pixels, wherein

the first light emitting element is configured to output first red light,

the second light emitting element is configured to output second red light, and

a half width of a spectrum of the first red light is less than a half width of a spectrum of the second red light.

10. The display device according to claim 9 , wherein

a light emitting layer of the first light emitting element includes gallium nitride to which europium is added.

11. The display device according to claim 9 , wherein

a light emitting layer of the second light emitting element includes a multi-quantum well structure in which indium gallium nitride and gallium nitride are layered.

12. The display device according to claim 11 , wherein the multi-quantum well structure includes first layers formed of indium gallium nitride and second layers formed of gallium nitride.
