Abstract

A display device according to an embodiment of the present technology includes an element substrate, a transparent substrate, a light shielding filter portion, and a transparent adhesive layer. The element substrate includes a first surface, an organic EL element that emits light from a display region of the first surface, and peripheral wiring disposed to overlap in plan view with a peripheral region surrounding the display region. The transparent substrate includes a second surface facing the first surface. The light shielding filter portion includes a first color filter disposed in the peripheral region of the first surface and a second color filter disposed on the second surface to face the first color filter, and shields the peripheral wiring from light. The transparent adhesive layer is provided between the first color filter and the second color filter and bonds the element substrate and the transparent substrate to each other.

Claims (57)

1. A display device, comprising:

an element substrate including a first surface, an organic EL element that emits light from a display region of the first surface, and peripheral wiring disposed to overlap in plan view with a peripheral region surrounding the display region;

a transparent substrate including a second surface facing the first surface;

a light shielding filter portion that includes a first color filter disposed in the peripheral region of the first surface and a second color filter disposed on the second surface to face the first color filter, and shields the peripheral wiring from light; and

a transparent adhesive layer that is provided between the first color filter and the second color filter and bonds the element substrate and the transparent substrate to each other.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first color filter limits visible light having passed through the second color filter.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the second color filter passes a light beam having a predetermined wavelength, and

the transparent adhesive layer includes a photocurable adhesive that is cured by the light beam having the predetermined wavelength.

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

a colored filter portion including a plurality of colored filters, each of which is disposed on one of the first surface and the second surface and transmits light beams having wavelengths different from each other to color the light of the organic EL element.

5. The display device according to claim 4 , wherein

at least one of the first color filter or the second color filter includes at least one of a plurality of colored films constituting the plurality of colored filters.

6. The display device according to claim 4 , wherein

the plurality of colored filters includes a first colored filter, a second colored filter, and a third colored filter that transmit the light beams having wavelengths different from each other.

7. The display device according to claim 6 , wherein

the first color filter transmits a light beam having the same wavelength as a wavelength of the first colored filter, and

the second color filter transmits a light beam having the same wavelength as a wavelength of the second colored filter.

8. The display device according to claim 6 , wherein

the second colored filter is disposed on the second surface, and

the second color filter includes a colored film identical to a colored film of the second colored filter.

9. The display device according to claim 6 , wherein

the first colored filter is disposed on the first surface, and

the first color filter includes a colored film identical to a colored film of the first colored filter.

10. The display device according to claim 6 , wherein

the first colored filter and the third colored filter are disposed on the first surface, and

the first color filter includes a stacked film in which a colored film identical to a colored film of the first colored filter and a colored film identical to a colored film of the third colored filter are stacked.

11. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the second color filter includes a single colored film, and

the first color filter includes a single colored film that transmits a light beam having a wavelength different from a wavelength of a colored film constituting the second color filter.

12. The display device according to claim 11 , wherein

the second color filter transmits red light, and

the first color filter transmits blue light.

13. The display device according to claim 11 , wherein

the second color filter includes a plurality of openings in each of which the second surface is exposed, and

the first color filter is disposed to cover the peripheral region of the first surface.

14. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first color filter includes a first colored film and a second colored film that transmits a light beam having a wavelength different from a wavelength of the first colored film, and

the second color filter includes a third colored film that transmits a light beam having a wavelength identical to the wavelength of the first colored film, and a fourth colored film that transmits a light beam having a wavelength identical to the wavelength of the second colored film.

15. The display device according to claim 14 , wherein

the first color filter includes a first stacked film in which the first colored film and the second colored film are stacked in layers, and a plurality of first openings formed on the first stacked film, the first surface being exposed in each of the plurality of first openings, and

the second color filter includes a second stacked film in which the third colored film and the fourth colored film are stacked in layers, and a plurality of second openings formed on the second stacked film without overlapping with the plurality of first openings in plan view, the second surface being exposed in each of the plurality of second openings.

16. The display device according to claim 14 , wherein

the first color filter includes a first pattern film in which the first colored film and the second colored film are alternately disposed along a plane direction of the first surface, and

the second color filter includes a second pattern film in which the third colored film is disposed on the second surface to overlap with the first colored film in plan view, and the fourth colored film is disposed on the second surface to overlap with the second colored film in plan view.

17. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the transparent adhesive layer includes a photocurable adhesive or a thermosetting adhesive.

18. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the transparent adhesive layer is a sealant applied to surround the display region or a filler provided between the transparent substrate and the element substrate.

19. An electronic apparatus, comprising:

a display device including

an element substrate including a first surface, an organic EL element that emits light from a display region of the first surface, and peripheral wiring disposed to overlap in plan view with a peripheral region surrounding the display region,

a transparent substrate including a second surface facing the first surface,

a light shielding filter portion that includes a first color filter disposed in the peripheral region of the first surface and a second color filter disposed on the second surface to face the first color filter, and shields the peripheral wiring from light, and

a transparent adhesive layer that is provided between the first color filter and the second color filter and bonds the element substrate and the transparent substrate to each other; and

a drive circuit that drives the display device.
