Abstract
An organic light emitting display device including a sub-pixel including a pixel electrode, a counter electrode, and a light emitting layer between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode, a planarization layer covering the counter electrode, and an auxiliary electrode in the planarization layer and coupled to the counter electrode.
Claims4
An organic light emitting display device comprising:
- a substrate;
- a sub-pixel comprising a pixel electrode, a counter electrode, and a light emitting layer between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode disposed on the substrate;
- a pixel defining layer surrounding the pixel electrode;
- a planarization layer covering the counter electrode and comprising an organic layer;
- an encapsulation layer covering the planarization layer;
- and
- an auxiliary electrode, comprising a vertical portion and a horizontal portion, in the planarization layer and directly contacting the encapsulation layer, the auxiliary electrode being electrically coupled to the counter electrode and being configured to apply a voltage to the counter electrode,
- wherein a first area defined by an interface between the auxiliary electrode and a first surface of the counter electrode overlaps a second area defined by an interface between a second surface of the counter electrode and the pixel defining layer, the first surface and the second surface of the counter electrode being opposing sides of the counter electrode, and
- wherein the horizontal portion of the auxiliary electrode overlaps with a portion of the pixel electrode along a direction perpendicular to the first area and the second area and does not extend entirely to a first edge and a second edge of the substrate, wherein the first edge and the second edge extend in a direction perpendicular to the first area and the second area.
