Abstract:
1. An organic electroluminescent device, comprising: first and second substrates spaced apart from and attached to each other, the first and second substrates including a plurality of pixel regions and a periphery region surrounding the plurality of pixel regions; a plurality of gate lines on an inner surface of the first substrate; a plurality of data lines crossing the plurality of gate lines; a plurality of driving thin film transistors, each of the driving thin film transistors adjacent to one of the plurality of pixel regions; a plurality of power lines connected to the driving thin film transistors; a plurality of gate pads connected to an end portion of the gate lines within the periphery region; a plurality of data pads connected to an end portion of the data lines within the periphery region; a plurality of power pads connected to an end portion of the power lines within the periphery region; at least one dummy pad within the periphery region, the at least one dummy pad being independent of each of the gate pads, the data pads, and the power pads; a first electrode on an inner surface of the second substrate, the first electrode connected to the dummy pad; an organic electroluminescent layer on the first electrode; a plurality of second electrodes on the organic electroluminescent layer within each of the pixel regions; and a plurality of connection electrodes electrically interconnecting the first substrate with the second substrate.
