Abstract
A display apparatus having an improved optical efficiency and a touch panel function, the display apparatus including a substrate; a display unit formed on the substrate and including a plurality of pixels; an encapsulation substrate disposed facing the display unit to encapsulate the display unit; an electrostatic capacitive pattern layer formed on the encapsulation substrate; and a black matrix layer formed between the substrate and the encapsulation substrate, and disposed to surround the plurality of pixels, wherein the plurality of pixels are disposed to correspond to the electrostatic capacitive pattern layer.
Claims25
A display apparatus comprising:
- a substrate;
- a display unit formed on the substrate and including a plurality of pixels;
- an encapsulation substrate disposed facing the display unit to encapsulate the display unit;
- an electrostatic capacitive pattern layer formed on the encapsulation substrate;
- and
- a black matrix layer formed between the substrate and the encapsulation substrate, and disposed to surround the plurality of pixels,
- wherein the plurality of pixels are disposed to correspond to the electrostatic capacitive pattern layer.
A method of adding an electrostatic capacitive-type touch panel function in a display apparatus including a substrate, a display unit, and an encapsulation substrate, the method comprising:
- forming an electrostatic capacitive pattern layer on the encapsulation substrate;
- forming a black matrix layer on the electrostatic capacitive layer;
- forming an insulating layer on the black matrix layer;
- forming the display unit including a plurality of pixels to emit light, the display unit being formed on the substrate;
- and
- disposing the encapsulation substrate on the display unit so that the electrostatic capacitive pattern layer faces the display unit.
