FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view illustrating an organic light emitting display apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line II-II in FIG. 1.
Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a light emitting unit EU1 and a driving unit DU1 are formed on a base substrate 200.
The light emitting unit EU1 includes at least one organic light emitting element that emits light when a power supply voltage is applied to an organic layer laminated between positive and negative electrodes. In FIG. 2, the light emitting unit EU1 is illustrated to emit red R, green G and blue B light as an example for the sake of convenience.
The base substrate 200 beneath the light emitting unit EU1 may further include a display unit configured of a plurality of transistors and capacitors for driving the organic light emitting unit. The base substrate 200 may be a substrate which is normally used in the organic light emitting display apparatus, or may be a glass substrate that is excellent in mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, tractability and water-resistance.
The driving unit DU1 is located outside the light emitting unit EU1 on the base substrate 200. For example, the driving unit DU1 transfers an electrical signal to the display unit coupled to the light emitting unit EU1 like a scan driver or a data driver.
In embodiments of the present invention, the term driving unit DU1 is not limited only to the scan driver and data driver, but may include other kinds of circuit units located on the base substrate 200 outside the light emitting unit EU1 that are electrically coupled to the display unit including a power supply, which provides a power source to the organic light emitting unit.
In addition, even though the driving unit DU1 is illustrated as located in left and right sides of, and beneath, the base substrate 200 in FIG. 1, the present invention is not limited thereto, and there may be at least one or more driving units DU1 located on the base substrate 200.
Although not illustrated in detail, the foregoing driving unit DU1 includes Thin Film Transistors (TFTs) and various electrical elements.
When exposed to vapour (e.g., moisture) or oxygen in the air, the organic layer in the organic light emitting unit 1 deteriorates to generate progressive dark spots. Therefore the light emitting unit EU1 in which the organic layer is formed should be sealed thoroughly
To block the light emitting unit EU1 from outside, a seal substrate 100 is located opposite to the base substrate 200, and is bonded to the base substrate 200 with a sealing unit 300.
Like the foregoing base substrate 200, the seal substrate 100 may comprise a substrate normally used in the organic light emitting display unit, or a glass substrate having excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, tractability and water-resistance.
When an adhesive containing an organic material is used as the sealing unit 300, moisture blocking capability (for avoiding moisture permeation) is lowered. Therefore frit, which is an inorganic material, may be used as a sealing material.
Hereinafter, referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, comparative examples in which a sealing unit is made of frit will be described. FIG. 3 is a schematic plan view illustrating an organic light emitting display apparatus according to a comparative example of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IV-IV in FIG. 3. Referring FIGS. 3 and 4, a light emitting unit UE2 and a driving unit DU2 are formed on a base substrate 200.
The light emitting unit EU2 includes at least one organic light emitting element that emits light when a power supply voltage is applied to an organic layer laminated between positive and negative electrodes. In FIG. 4, the light emitting unit EU2 is illustrated to emit red R, green G and blue B light as an example for convenience's sake.
The base substrate 200 may be a substrate that is normally used in the organic light emitting display apparatus, or may be a glass substrate having excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, tractability and water-resistance. Furthermore, the sealing substrate 100 may adopt a glass substrate like the base substrate 200.
A driving unit DU2 is located outside the light emitting unit EU2 on the base substrate 200.
The foregoing driving unit DU2 includes TFTs and various electrical elements.
To protect the light emitting unit EU2 from outside (e.g., an exterior environment), the sealing substrate 100 is located to be opposite to the base substrate and the sealing substrate 100 is bonded to the base substrate 200 with a sealing unit 30 made of the frit, which is excellent in reducing or preventing moisture permeation. The sealing substrate 100 may be bonded to the base substrate 200 with a laser. Because a temperature of frit irradiated with the laser sharply increases (e.g., effectively instantly) and damages the driving unit DU2 around the frit, the sealing unit 30 is separated from the driving unit DU2 (e.g., separated by a predetermined interval) in the organic light emitting display apparatus 2 of the comparative example in which the sealing unit made of frit is involved.
Nowadays, as customer demand for a slim display apparatus increases, efforts are directed toward reducing a dead space. When the sealing unit is not separated from, but instead overlaps, the driving unit, the driving unit can be moved to the outskirts of the base substrate. Then an area of the light emitting unit increases, and the overall dead space can be reduced.
However, when the base substrate 200 and sealing substrate 100 are bonded with the sealing unit 30 made of frit, the temperature of the frit irradiated with a high-output laser may go higher than 600° C., as in the comparative example. Therefore the driving unit DU2 is separated from the sealing unit 30 to avoid damage from the high temperature. Accordingly, a dead space between an edge of the base substrate 200 and the light emitting unit EU2 is barely or minimally reduced.
Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the present embodiment adopts a low melting inorganic material (e.g., a material having a low temperature phase transition characteristic) instead of frit as the sealing unit 300. Here, a phase transition temperature of the low melting inorganic material indicates the minimum temperature at which fluidity occurs in the low melting inorganic material. Furthermore, the phase transition temperature of the low melting inorganic material may be lower than a temperature at which electrical characteristics of elements configuring the driving unit DU1 begin to change. For example, the phase transition temperature of the low melting inorganic material may be from about 80° C. to about 120° C.
The low melting inorganic material may include for example, one or more kinds of tin oxide, such as SnO, stannous fluoride, such as SnF2, phosphorous oxide, such as P2O5, niobium oxide, such as NbO, boron phosphate, such as BPO4, zinc oxide, such as ZnO, and tungsten oxide, such as WO3.
Because the sealing unit 300 of the present embodiment softens at a low temperature, and because the bonding of the base substrate 200 and the sealing substrate 100 is also performed at a low temperature, even with use of a laser, the driving unit DU1 and light emitting unit EU1 are not damaged by heat. Accordingly, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the sealing unit 300 is formed to overlap a portion of the driving unit DU1.
Compared to the comparative examples as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the driving unit DU1 may be located closer to the sealing unit 300 enabling the dead space to be reduced. Even though only portions of the sealing unit 300 and driving unit DU1 overlap each other in the drawings, the overlapping may be performed in a wider range. As the overlapping region is widened, the area of the light emitting unit EU1 is increased, and the dead space can be further reduced.
According to the present embodiments, because it is not necessary to prepare a separate protection member between the sealing unit 300 and driving unit DU1 to protect the driving unit DU1 from high temperature (e.g., heat applied to the sealing unit 300), the driving unit DU1 can directly contact the sealing unit 300. Therefore, the manufacturing process is simplified.
However, adhesion between the driving unit DU1 and sealing unit 300 may become weak. Here, the low melting inorganic materials may be mixed, for example, in ratios as follows:
i) powder mixture (mole %) of 40% SnF2+40% SnO+20% P2O5;
ii) mixture (mole %) of 40% SnF2+40% SnO+18% P2O5+2% Nb2O5;
iii) mixture (mole %) of 40% SnO+40% P2O5+20% ZnO;
iv) mixture (mole %) of 40% SnO+40% P2O5+18% ZnO+2% FeO.
Then adhesion of the sealing unit 300 according to the present embodiment was tested. As the test results, the adhesions of the samples were i) 15 kgf/mm, ii) 27 kgf/mm, iii) 7 kgf/mm, iv) 20 kgf/mm, respectively, confirming that the samples had sufficient adhesions.
Hereinafter various methods for manufacturing an organic light emitting display apparatus will be described.
FIGS. 5A to 5C are schematic plan views illustrating a method of manufacturing an organic light emitting display apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIGS. 5A to 5C, a dam unit 310 is formed doubly on the sealing unit 300 (e.g., the dam unit 310 is form at/as both sides of the sealing unit 300) to enclose the light emitting unit EU1 of the base substrate 200 and to overlap a portion of the driving unit DU1 (see FIG. 1) along an outskirt of a joined line (e.g., a continuous line, or an enclosing structure). The dam unit 310 may be formed by welding a glass tube to the sealing unit 300.
Next, as shown in FIG. 5B, the inside of the dam unit 310 is filled with the low melting inorganic material 320 in a powder state. Then, as shown in FIG. 5C, the base substrate 200 and the sealing substrate 100 are aligned for a joined line of the sealing unit 300-1 to at least partially overlap the driving unit DU1 (see FIG. 1).
After the alignment, the low melting inorganic material 320 is heated at a phase transition temperature, and the base substrate 200 and the sealing substrate 100 are bonded for the low melting inorganic material 320 to be at least partially and directly joined to the driving unit DU1 (see FIG. 1). Accordingly, a low melting inorganic material 320 in the powder state is difficult to contain, or to maintain as a certain shape. Therefore the dam unit 310 is formed to contain the powder, and the powder is put into the dam unit 310 and then heated.
Because high energy is not necessary to glassify (e.g., make into glass) the low melting inorganic material 320 in the powder state, the sealing unit 300-1 including the low melting inorganic material 320 does not damage electrical elements included in the driving unit DU1 (see FIG. 1). Therefore it is possible to design the driving unit DU1 (see FIG. 1) to overlap the sealing unit 300-1, thereby reducing the dead space.
FIGS. 6A to 6C are schematic plan views illustrating a method of manufacturing an organic light emitting display apparatus according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 6A, a frit 400 is formed on the sealing substrate 100.
Referring to FIG. 6B, a pyrolysis adhesive 500 is formed on the frit 400. The pyrolysis adhesive 500 may be made of at least one of ethyl cellulose, polyimide and a polyvinyl adhesive.
Referring to FIG. 6C, a pallet 600 containing the low melting inorganic material is formed on the pyrolysis adhesive 500.
Referring to FIG. 6D, before the sealing substrate 100 is bonded to the base substrate 200, the temperature of the frit 400 is raised by irradiating the frit 400 of the sealing substrate 100 with the laser L. The pyrolysis adhesive 400 is at least partly decomposed by the heat from the frit 400, and a portion of the pallet 600, which contains the low melting inorganic material and touches the frit 400, melts to be integrated to the frit 400, and forms a sealing unit 300-2.
Referring to FIG. 6E, the base substrate 200 and sealing substrate 100 are aligned for a joined line of the sealing unit 300-2 to at least partially overlap the driving unit DU1 (see FIG. 1).
After the alignment, the low melting inorganic material 600 is heated at a phase transition temperature, and the base substrate 200 and the sealing substrate 100 are bonded for the low melting inorganic material 600 to be at least partially and directly joined to the driving unit DU1 (see FIG. 1).
FIGS. 7A to 7C are schematic plan views illustrating a method of manufacturing an organic light emitting display apparatus according to a third embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 7A, a recess unit 100-1a and protruding unit 100-1b are formed in the sealing substrate 100-1. The recess unit 100-1a is formed in a region facing the light emitting unit EU1 to be described later, and the protruding unit 100-1b is formed along a joined line (e.g., continuously formed at an edge of the sealing substrate 100-1). The forgoing process may be performed by etching.
Referring to FIG. 7B, a sealing unit 300-3 of a pallet form that contains the low melting inorganic material is formed on the protruding unit 100-1b. 
Referring to FIG. 7C, the base substrate 200 and sealing substrate 100 are aligned so that a joined line of the sealing unit 300-3 at least partially overlaps the driving unit DU1 (see FIG. 1).
After the alignment, the sealing unit 300-3 containing the low melting inorganic material is heated at a phase transition temperature, and the base substrate 200 and the sealing substrate 100 are bonded for the sealing unit 300-3 to be at least partially and directly joined to the driving unit DU1 (see FIG. 1).
According to the foregoing first to third embodiments, because the sealing unit containing the low melting inorganic material is used, the electrical elements of the driving unit, and electrical elements of a light emitting material, are not damaged even though heat is applied while bonding the base substrate to the sealing substrate.
Therefore the sealing unit can be formed to overlap the driving unit, thereby reducing the dead space. In addition, it is not necessary to form a protection member to protect the driving unit between the driving unit and the sealing unit, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process.
While embodiments of the present invention have been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the following claims, and their equivalents.
