Abstract

An organic electroluminescence display device comprises a first substrate including a light emitting area comprising a first electrode, an organic electroluminescence layer and a second electrode stacked one over another and a second substrate including a connection layer for feeding a driving signal to the second electrode. The first substrate has a connection area in which a portion of the second electrode is off set vertically from the light emitting area and connected to the connection layer of the second substrate. The connection area does not overlie the light emitting area.

Claims (22)

1. An organic electroluminescence display device comprising:

a first substrate including a light emitting area comprising a first electrode, an organic electroluminescence layer and a second electrode stacked one over another and a second substrate including a connection layer for feeding a driving signal to said second electrode,

wherein said first substrate has a connection area in which a portion of said second electrode is off set vertically from said light emitting area and connected to said connection layer of said second substrate, and

wherein said connection area does not overlie said light emitting area.

2. An organic electroluminescence display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein said connection area has a projection including a slope.

3. An organic electroluminescence display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein said first substrate has a depression for housing a moisture absorbent.

4. An organic electroluminescence display device according to claim 3 ,

wherein said depression forming opposite to an area in which said driving circuit of said second substrate.

5. An organic electroluminescence display device according to claim 3 ,

wherein a groove extending from said depression along the circumferential edge portions of said first substrate.

6. An organic electroluminescence display device according to claim 3 ,

wherein a groove extending from said depression along the circumferential edge portions of said first substrate.

7. An organic electroluminescence display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein a gas space between said first substrate and said second substrate is filled up with an inert gas of 710 hPa or lower in pressure.

8. An organic electroluminescence display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein said connection area of said first substrate and said connection area of said second substrate are stuck together with an adhesive layer.

9. An organic electroluminescence display device according to one of claim 1 ,

wherein a diffraction grating, a low-refractive index layer having a refractive index lower than said first substrate, or a light scattering layer for scattering light is formed on the surface of said first substrate being in contact with said, transparent electrode.

10. An organic electroluminescence display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein said light emitting area is formed two-dimensionally in the shape of a matrix.
