Patent ID: 8796701

Claim:
A display panel apparatus, comprising: at least one pixel including a lower electrode, an upper electrode provided opposite the lower electrode, and an organic layer having an organic material provided between the lower electrode and the upper electrode; a TFT (thin film transistor) layer formed below said at least one pixel and including a driver that drives said at least one pixel; a planarizing film for planarizing an upper surface of the TFT layer; an auxiliary electrode formed separately from said lower electrode and electrically connected to said upper electrode; a display that includes a plurality of the at least pixel; an electrode plate electrically connected to said auxiliary electrode arranged to cover said planarizing film outside the display, said electrode plate having a hole exposing a part of a surface of said planarizing film; and an inorganic material layer including an inorganic material, in contact with an upper surface of said electrode plate, located below said upper electrode, and covering said hole.
