Patent ID: 8120249

Claim:
An organic light emitting display (OLED) device comprising: a first substrate comprising a pixel region and a non-pixel region; an array of organic light emitting pixels formed over the pixel region; a conductive line formed over a surface of the non-pixel region, wherein the conductive line is substantially flat throughout the surface; a second substrate placed over the first substrate such that the array and the conductive line are interposed between the first and second substrates; a planarization layer formed over at least part of the non-pixel region of the first substrate, wherein the planarization layer comprises an opening; and a frit seal interposed between the first and second substrates and surrounding the array, the frit seal interconnecting the first and second substrates, the frit seal comprising a portion contacting the conductive line through the opening in the planarization layer and overlapping the conductive line in a segment of the device where the frit seal is formed, wherein the portion of the frit seal substantially eclipses the conductive line in the segment when viewed from the second substrate, wherein the frit seal contacts the planarization layer, and wherein the planarization layer covers a portion of the conductive line.
