Description
The present invention relates to an organic light emitting display device and a method of manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to an organic light emitting display device capable of supplying a uniform current to an organic light emitting device in order to maintain a uniform luminance in an organic light emitting device while minimizing damage to a driving device by hydrogen And a method of manufacturing the same.
The organic light emitting display device OLED is a self-emissive display device, unlike a liquid crystal display device (LCD), a separate light source is not necessary, so that it can be manufactured in a light and thin shape. In addition, the organic light emitting display device is not only advantageous in terms of power consumption due to low voltage driving, but also has excellent color rendering, response speed, viewing angle, and contrast ratio (CR) and is being studied as a next generation display.
The organic light emitting display device includes an organic light emitting device including an organic light emitting layer to constitute a pixel. The organic light emitting layer may be oxidized to moisture and oxygen, resulting in defects such as a dark spot.
In order to minimize the influence of moisture and oxygen, the organic light emitting device has a thin film protective layer using organic and inorganic materials disposed on the top. Since the organic light emitting layer is vulnerable to heat, Lt; 0 > C.
In this process, residual diffusible hydrogen remains in the organic light emitting display device, and hydrogen can diffuse into the display device over time.
The residual diffusive hydrogen can affect the driving element using the oxide semiconductor as the active layer, and can reduce the oxide semiconductor.
If the oxide semiconductor is reduced, the properties as semiconductors may be lost. As a result, the driving device can not exhibit its function, and as a result, defects such as strong spots in the organic light emitting display device may occur.
On the other hand, in the organic light emitting display device, a plurality of pixels are disposed on a substrate, and light is emitted by electrons and holes injected into the organic light emitting layer disposed in each pixel, and the organic light emitting layer includes a plurality of driving elements Lt; / RTI >
In the organic light emitting display device, it is important to supply a uniform current for uniform light emission of each pixel. However, depending on the distance to be supplied with power, and in a large display device, the central portion of the display device may not be supplied with a uniform current due to problems such as electrical resistance of the electrodes, as compared with the peripheral portion.
Each pixel of the organic light emitting display device includes, in addition to the organic light emitting device including the organic light emitting layer, data lines and gate lines crossing each other and a driving device having a connection structure with the data lines.
An oxide semiconductor having a higher electron mobility and a lower manufacturing cost than a polysilicon thin film transistor having a semiconductor layer made of polysilicon and having a relatively lower manufacturing cost than an amorphous thin film transistor having a semiconductor layer made of amorphous silicon as a driving element, Active research is being conducted on the oxide thin film transistor driving device that constitutes the organic EL device.
In addition, due to the enlargement of the organic light emitting display device, a lot of researches for supplying a uniform current are proceeding. For example, researches such as the provision of an auxiliary electrode have been going on.

1. Organic electroluminescence display device and method of manufacturing the same (Patent Application No. 10-2013-0071823)
The organic light emitting display device arranges a plurality of pixels including an organic light emitting device to display an image or the like desired by a user by emitting light from the organic light emitting device.
The organic light emitting device includes two electrodes and an organic layer. At this time, the organic layer includes an organic light emitting layer and may further include a hole injecting layer, a hole transporting layer, an electron transporting layer, an electron injecting layer, etc. for smooth excition formation.
One of the two electrodes may be a pixel electrode connected to the driving element and the other may be a common electrode.
In the upward emission type organic light emitting display device (top emission), the common electrode generally uses a transparent electrode, and since the transparent electrode has a high resistance value, the organic light emitting display device The supplied current becomes lower due to an increase in electrical resistance of the common electrode.
In order to overcome the lowered luminance in the central portion, the auxiliary electrode may be disposed in the organic light emitting display device and the common electrode and the auxiliary electrode may be connected to reduce the electrical resistance of the central portion of the panel.
However, in recent years, a display device has been required to have a high-resolution function together with a large size. Accordingly, if an auxiliary electrode is formed in an organic light emitting display device, the aperture ratio is lowered due to a restriction on the size of a pixel.
Further, in order to seal the organic light emitting element and protect it from oxygen and moisture, a technique of disposing a thin film sealing layer, which alternately laminates an inorganic layer and an organic layer, on the organic light emitting element is used. SiNx, SiOx, SiON, AlOx, etc. are mainly used in consideration of mechanical strength, moisture permeability, ease of film formation, productivity and the like. PECVD and ALD methods are mainly used for the deposition method.
In the case of a thin film deposition process using a plasma, a considerable amount of hydrogen contained in the source gas generally remains in the thin film. Particularly, in the case of materials such as SiNx, SiO (N), and AlOx, which are used as a sealing layer to block moisture penetration, PECVD and ALD processes are used. Due to the thermal damage of the organic light emitting layer, Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 > 100 C < / RTI > so that more hydrogen and impurities remain. A certain amount of hydrogen remains in the case of the sealing layer for blocking penetration of moisture as well as the driving element protecting layer for protecting the driving element.
The hydrogen remaining in the thin films may diffuse as time elapses and may reduce the oxide semiconductor when reaching the active layer of the driving device. The reduction of the oxide semiconductor eventually causes a change in the electrical behavior of the driving element and affects the image to cause a stain or a luminance deviation.
Therefore, not only the problem caused by hydrogen in the thin film is a major cause of deteriorating the reliability of the organic light emitting display panel, but also the driving device including the oxide semiconductor is used in various products. Accordingly, the inventors of the present invention invented a new structure and method of an organic light emitting display device capable of minimizing defects of a driving device including an oxide semiconductor by hydrogen while supplying a uniform current to the organic light emitting device.
