- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a display device and particularly relates to a display device suitable for the application to an organic EL display device.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- An organic EL device containing an organic material, electroluminescence (called EL hereinafter), is now popular as a light-emitting device, which can emit high intensity light through low-voltage direct-current driving. However, in such a device including organic EL devices (that is, an organic EL display device), moisture may deteriorate an organic layer of the device, which may lower the intensity of emitted light in each of the devices and/or may cause unstable light emission.
- Conventionally as shown in
FIG. 6 , the organic EL devices on thesubstrate 101 are sealed by acover member 102 and asealant 103. Also, a rigid carbon film may be further provided at the outside of thesealant 103. Thus, the organic EL devices on thesubstrate 101 can be shielded from the outside, especially from moisture and oxygen which may cause the oxidization of the organic EL devices and prompt the deterioration of the devices (seePatent Document 1 below). - In
FIG. 7 , thecover member 102 is bonded via anadhesive 105 onto adevice side 101 a of thesubstrate 101 having organic EL devices and/or a circuit. - Patent Document 1: JP-A-2002-93576
- However, in such devices, the spread of the moisture remaining within the display device is not completely prevented.
- In particular, an inter-layer insulating film covering a driving circuit is made of an organic photo-sensitive material and allows water to pass through easily. Therefore, the moisture left within the display device easily spread via the inter-layer insulating film.
- Accordingly, it is desirable to propose a display device which can prevent the deterioration of organic EL devices due to the spread of moisture remaining within the display device for higher long-term reliability.
- According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a display device including, a display area having a plurality of organic EL devices on a substrate; a peripheral area having a driving circuit for the organic EL devices and surrounding the display area on the substrate; and an organic insulating film covering at least the driving circuit, the organic insulating film has a separating groove which divides itself into the inner part and outer part at the periphery of the display area.
- In such a device, the separating groove divides the organic insulating film into the inner part and outer part. Therefore, the deterioration of the organic EL devices due to moisture in the display area can be reduced by preventing moisture in the outer part of the organic insulating film from moving into the inner part of the organic insulating film. The separating groove is preferably provided between the display area and the peripheral area, so that the moisture in the peripheral area is prevented from moving into the display area through the organic insulating film.

The first organic insulatingfilm 27 has a separating groove al between thedisplay area 3 and theperipheral area 4 so that thedisplay area 3 is surrounded. The separating groove al is formed by lithography processing. - The
display area 3 on the first organic insulatingfilm 27 has a plurality of organic EL devices EL. The organic EL devices EL have alower electrode 31 connecting to thewiring 25 through aconnection hole 27 a in the first organic insulatingfilm 27. Thelower electrode 31 is to be used as an anode (or cathode) and is patterned as a pixel electrode. The periphery of thelower electrode 31 is covered by a second organic insulatingfilm 33 and is widely exposed at the center part only. The second organic insulatingfilm 33 may contain a photo-sensitive compound, for example. Lithography processing is used to form an opening above thelower electrode 31 and a separating groove a2 over the separating groove al of the first organic insulatingfilm 27. - Thus, according to the first embodiment, the first organic insulating
film 27 and the second organic insulatingfilm 33 are included in the organic insulatingfilm 12 described with reference toFIGS. 1A and 1B . The separating groove a1 in the first organic insulatingfilm 27 and the separating groove a2 in the second organic insulatingfilm 33 form the separating groove a described with reference toFIGS. 1A and 1B . - An
organic layer 35 including a light-emitting layer at least is patterned and stacked on thelower electrodes 31 exposing from the second organic insulatingfilm 33. The light-emitting layer in theorganic layer 35 contains an organic material, which emits light in response to the re-coupling of positive holes and electrons implanted to the light-emitting layer. Anupper electrode 37 is provided on the patternedorganic layer 35 and the second organic insulatingfilm 33. Here, theupper electrode 37 is isolated from thelower electrode 31. Theupper electrode 37 is to be used as a cathode (or anode), is provided as an electrode common to the organic EL devices EL and covers thedisplay area 3. - Here, the
EL layer 13 described with reference toFIG. 1B is the layer having a plurality of organic EL devices EL in the construction as described above. - The inorganic insulating
film 14 andadhesive layer 15 cover the organic insulatingfilm 12 and organic EL devices EL, and theopposite substrate 17 is provided thereon. - As shown in
FIG. 2B , theupper electrode 37 for the organic EL devices EL has an end extending as anupper electrode wiring 37 a in theperipheral area 4 and connecting, at predetermined positions, to the driving circuits in theperipheral area 4. Thus, theupper electrode wiring 37 a extends to theperipheral area 4 across the separating groove a surrounding thedisplay area 3. Therefore, securing an enough thickness of the organic insulating film 12 (that is, the first organic insulating film 27) is important for maintaining isolation between thewiring 25 in thedisplay area 3 and theperipheral area 4 and theupper electrode wiring 37 a. - At place where the
upper electrode wiring 37 a crosses the separating groove a, thewiring 25 in thedisplay area 3 and thewiring 25 in theperipheral area 4 are connected through a connection wiring below the inorganic insulatingfilm 21. In this case, for example, the semiconductor layer part of the same layer as thesemiconductor layer 23 included in the thin-film transistors Tr may be aconnection wiring 23 a so that theconnection wiring 23 a can connect thewiring 25 in thedisplay area 3 and thewiring 25 in theperipheral area 4. Thus, thewiring 25 in thedisplay area 3 and thewiring 25 in theperipheral area 4 can be connected each other without a short circuit with respect to theelectrode wiring 37 a. - In
display device 1, the separating groove a in the organic insulatingfilm 12 surrounding thedisplay area 3 divides the organic insulatingfilm 12 into theinner part 12 a and theouter part 12 b, as described with reference toFIGS. 1A and 1B and 2A and 2B. Thus, the moisture existing in the part corresponding to theouter part 12 b of the organic insulatingfilm 12 does not enter into theinner part 12 a through the organic insulatingfilm 12. Therefore, the deterioration of the organic EL devices EL due to moisture can be prevented in thedisplay area 3 positioned at the part covered by theinner part 12 a. - In particular, the separating groove a surrounding the
display area 3 and between thedisplay area 3 and theperipheral area 4 can prevent the entry of the moisture existing in theperipheral area 4 having the driving circuits into thedisplay area 3 through the organic insulatingfilm 12. Therefore, even when moisture is absorbed to a foreign material (such as dust) caused in a process of manufacturing the driving circuits in theperipheral area 4, the entry of the moisture into thedisplay area 3 can be prevented, which can further prevent the deterioration of the organic EL devices more effectively. Preferably, the separating groove a is provided surrounding thedisplay area 3 as closely as possible to thedisplay area 3. Thus, the volume of theinner part 12 a of the organic insulatingfilm 12 can be reduced, and the amount of moisture that reaches to the organic EL devices EL through the part can be therefore reduced. - As a result, the long-term reliability of the
display device 1 can be achieved since the deterioration of the organic EL devices EL due to moisture can be prevented. -
FIGS. 3A and 3B are main part enlarged section views showing features in a display device according to a second embodiment.FIG. 3A shows an enlarged section view corresponding to Part B in the schematic section view inFIG. 1B , andFIG. 3B shows an enlarged section view corresponding to Part B′ in the schematic section view inFIG. 1B . Adisplay device 1 a according to the second embodiment shown inFIGS. 3A and 3B is different from the display device according to the first embodiment in that aninorganic layer 41 is provided at the bottom of the separating groove a for alleviating the degree of the level change due to the separating groove a. The other construction of the second embodiment is the same. - The
inorganic layer 41 has a width W1, which is wider enough than the width W of the opening at the bottom of the separating groove a. The bottom of the separating groove a is configured to securely position on theinorganic layer 41 only so that the degree of the level change due to the separating groove a can be evenly alleviated. Theinorganic layer 41 may be formed by patterning the same layer as that of thewiring 25 in thedisplay area 3 andperipheral area 4. In this case, theinorganic layer 41 may be patterned with sufficient isolation from thewiring 25. - In particular, as shown in
FIG. 3B , theupper electrode wiring 37 a is connected and wired to theinorganic layer 41 containing the same material as that of thewirings 25 in the part where theupper electrode wiring 37 a extending from theupper electrode 37 for the organic EL devices EL crosses the separating groove a. - Note that the
inorganic layer 41 may contain an insulating material. Also in this case, theinorganic layer 41 has the width W1, which is wider enough than the width W of the opening at the bottom of the separating groove a, and the bottom of the separating groove a is configured to securely position on theinorganic layer 41 only. - Since the separating groove a of the organic insulating
film 12 is provided between thedisplay area 3 andperipheral area 4 also in this construction, the deterioration of the organic EL devices EL due to moisture in thedisplay area 3 can be prevented like the first embodiment. - Furthermore, this embodiment has the
inorganic layer 41 at the bottom of the separating groove a so that the degree of the level change due to the separating groove a can be alleviated. Thus, the stress on the part covering the level change due to the separating groove a can be alleviated in the inorganic insulatingfilm 14 on the organic insulatingfilm 12. Therefore, the occurrence of a crack due to the stress can be prevented, which can prevent the entry of moisture through the crack. - The alleviation of the degree of the level change due to the separating groove a can easily secure the thickness of the
upper electrode wiring 37 a extending to theperipheral area 4 across the separating groove a. Thus, the increase in resistant value and/or break of theupper electrode wiring 37 a can be prevented in the side walls of the separating groove a. - Notably, the
inorganic layer 41 for alleviating the degree of the level change due to the separating groove a can be provided without any increase in number of steps when theinorganic layer 41 is formed by patterning the same layer as that of thewiring 25 in thedisplay area 3 andperipheral area 4. -
FIG. 4A is a plan view showing a construction of a display device according to a third embodiment, andFIG. 4B is a schematic section view taken at Line A-A′ inFIG. 4A . Adisplay device 1 b shown inFIGS. 4A and 4B is different from the display devices of the embodiments above in that a sealedarea 45 resulting from the removal of the organic insulatingfilm 12 is provided in the outermost circumference of the part having theopposite substrate 17 over the supportingsubstrate 2, and the other construction is the same. - In other words, in the
display device 1 b, the separating groove a resulting from the removal of the organic insulatingfilm 12 is provided between thedisplay area 3 and theperipheral area 4 so that thedisplay area 3 is surrounded. The sealedarea 45 resulting from the removal of the organic insulatingfilm 12 is provided surrounding the separating groove a and the perimeter of theperipheral area 4. The sealedarea 45 is the outermost periphery of the part having theopposite substrate 17 over the supportingsubstrate 2 as described above. Theouter part 12 b of the organic insulatingfilm 12 separated by the separating groove a has the both side walls and top face completely covered by the inorganic insulating film 14 (shown in the section view only) on the organic insulatingfilm 12 and are sealed by the adhesive layer (shown in the section view only). In other words, the organic insulatingfilm 12 is not exposed to the outside in the part between the supportingsubstrate 2 and theopposite substrate 17. - In
display device 1 b, the deterioration of the organic EL devices EL due to moisture in thedisplay area 3 can be prevented like the first embodiment since the separating groove a of the organic insulatingfilm 12 is provided between thedisplay area 3 and theperipheral area 4. - Furthermore, in the
display device 1 b of the third embodiment, the sealedarea 45 resulting from the removal of the organic insulatingfilm 12 and being provided at the outer edges of the supportingsubstrate 2 andopposite substrate 17 can prevent the entry of moisture from the outside of thedisplay device 1 b. Thus, the deterioration of the organic EL devices EL due to moisture in thedisplay area 3 can be more securely prevented, and the corrosion of a metallic material due to moisture, for example, can be also prevented in theperipheral area 4. -
FIG. 5 is a schematic section view showing a construction of a display device according to a fourth embodiment. Adisplay device 1 c inFIG. 5 is different from the display device of the third embodiment in that a hollow part exists between the supportingsubstrate 2 and theopposite substrate 17, and the other construction is the same. - In other words, in the
display device 1 c, anadhesive sealant 47 is provided between the supportingsubstrate 2 and theopposite substrate 17 surrounding the separating groove a between thedisplay area 3 and theperipheral area 4 and the perimeter of theperipheral area 4, resulting from the removal of the organic insulatingfilm 12. Thesealant 47 bonds theopposite substrate 17 to the supportingsubstrate 2 and seals the hollow part between the supportingsubstrate 2 and theopposite substrate 17. - Also in the
display device 1 c of the fourth embodiment, the deterioration of the organic EL devices EL due to moisture in thedisplay area 3 can be prevented, and the reliability can be improved since the separating groove a of the organic insulatingfilm 12 is provided between thedisplay area 3 and theperipheral area 4. - It should be understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations and alterations may occur depending on design requirements and other factors insofar as they are within the scope of the appended claims or the equivalents thereof.
