Abstract

In a light emitting display device, a light blocking member is positioned on an encapsulation layer and includes a red opening, a blue opening, and a green opening. The red opening, the blue opening, and the green opening have a mass center, a first position closest to the mass center, and a second position furthest from the mass center. In case that a ratio of a distance from the mass center to the second position to a distance from the mass center to the first position is referred to as a maximum minimum distance ratio, the red opening has a value of about 1.02 or more and about 1.15 or less, the blue opening has a value of about 1.05 or more and about 1.2 or less, and the green opening has a value of about 1.32 or more and about 1.38.

2 . The light emitting display device of claim 1 , wherein

the red opening, the blue opening, and the green opening have a hybrid structure including a straight line and a curved line.

3 . The light emitting display device of claim 2 , wherein

the light blocking member includes a plurality of openings formed of one red opening, one blue opening, and two green openings as a unit.

4 . The light emitting display device of claim 3 , wherein

the two green openings are long in different directions.

5 . The light emitting display device of claim 4 , wherein

an angle formed by two directions in which the two green openings extend is about 90 degrees.

6 . The light emitting display device of claim 2 , further comprising:

color filters of different colors that are positioned in the red opening, the blue opening, and the green opening.

7 . The light emitting display device of claim 2 , further comprising:

a reflection adjustment layer filling the red opening, the blue opening, and the green opening and formed on the light blocking member.

8 . A light emitting display device comprising:

a substrate;

pixel circuit parts positioned on the substrate;

light emitting diodes (LED) electrically connected to the pixel circuit parts;

an encapsulation layer covering at least one of the pixel circuit parts and at least one of the light emitting diodes (LED);

a light blocking member positioned on the encapsulation layer and including a red opening, a blue opening, and a green opening; and

a reflection adjustment layer filling the red opening, the blue opening, and the green opening and formed on the light blocking member,

wherein the red opening, the blue opening, and the green opening have a mass center, a first position closest to the mass center, and a second position furthest from the mass center,

wherein, in case that a ratio of a distance from the mass center to the second position to a distance from the mass center to the first position is referred to as a maximum minimum distance ratio:

the red opening has a value of about 1.02 or more and about 1.15 or less as the maximum minimum distance ratio,

the blue opening has a value of about 1.05 or more and about 1.2 or less as the maximum minimum distance ratio, and

the green opening has a value of about 1.32 or more and about 1.38 or less as the maximum minimum distance ratio,

wherein the red opening, the blue opening, and the green opening have a hybrid structure including a straight line and a curved line, and

wherein:

the light emitting diodes (LEDs) include a cathode; and

the light emitting display device further includes a low reflection layer positioned between the cathode and the encapsulation layer.

9 . The light emitting display device of claim 8 , further comprising:

a capping layer positioned between the cathode and the low reflection layer.

10 . The light emitting display device of claim 8 , further comprising:

a low adhesive layer formed at a part where the cathode is not formed.

11 . A manufacturing method of a light emitting display device, comprising:

forming an initial opening in a light blocking member;

applying a Gaussian filter to the initial opening and the light blocking member; and

applying a threshold value to the initial opening and the light blocking member to which the Gaussian filter is applied to form a final opening, wherein

the final opening includes a red opening, a blue opening, and a green opening,

the Gaussian filter to form the red opening has a full width at half maximum value of about 8 μm or more and about 12 μm or less,

the Gaussian filter to form the blue opening has a full width at half maximum value of about 8 μm or more and about 14 μm or less, and

the Gaussian filter to form the green opening has a full width at half maximum of about 8 μm or more and about 10 μm or less.

12 . The manufacturing method of the light emitting display device of claim 11 , wherein

the initial opening only includes a straight line and does not include a curved line.

13 . The manufacturing method of the light emitting display device of claim 12 , wherein

the initial opening has a quadrangle shape.

14 . The manufacturing method of the light emitting display device of claim 13 , wherein

the final opening is formed by a hybrid structure including a straight line and a curved line.

15 . The manufacturing method of the light emitting display device of claim 14 , wherein

the red opening, the blue opening, and the green opening have a mass center, a first position closest to the mass center, and a second position furthest from the mass center,

in case that a ratio of a distance from the mass center to the second position to a distance from the mass center to the first position is referred to as a maximum minimum distance ratio:

the red opening has a value of about 1.02 or more and about 1.15 or less as the maximum minimum distance ratio,
