Embodiment two
With reference to Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, the cover plate schematic top plan view of the organic light-emitting display device that Fig. 7 provides for embodiment two, Fig. 8
For Fig. 7 cover plate along bb ' direction sectional view.The organic light-emitting display device that embodiment two provides is on the basis of embodiment one
On, the thickness of the conductive layer 310 of corresponding viewing area diverse location is different, and thickness changing trend is had with the position of negative electrode via
Close.
Negative electrode via is shown a case that in viewing area all around in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, in Fig. 7, region shown in region 350
For negative electrode via corresponding region, specifically, when array base palte and cover plate are oppositely arranged, negative electrode via corresponding region 350 is corresponding
Negative electrode via area in array base palte, is negative electrode via area view field on the cover board.
Show the thickness change rule of conductive layer 310 in Fig. 8, correspond to for negative electrode via in the peripheral regions of substrate 300
Region 350, the negative electrode via area on corresponding array base palte.Described conductive layer 310, close to negative electrode via corresponding region 350
The thickness at place is less than away from the thickness at negative electrode via corresponding region 350.Conductive layer 310 is apart from negative electrode via corresponding region 350
More nearby, then thickness is thinner.After cover plate and array base palte bond, it is also believed to described conductive layer 310, close to negative electrode mistake
Thickness at bore region is less than away from the thickness at negative electrode via area.
Although the conductive layer 310 of diverse location has different thickness, because the pixel defining layer on array base palte has
Certain elasticity is it is ensured that conductive layer 310 has effective electrical contact with the negative electrode on array base palte, but due to display dress
Put the thick restriction of box, conductive layer 310 is unsuitable blocked up, and the maximum of the therefore thickness of conductive layer 310 is preferably the 2~3 of minima
Times.It is of course also possible to setting has certain thickness insulator spacer, such as organic membrane between substrate 300 and conductive layer 310
Deng to make up the thickness difference between the conductive layer 310 of diverse location it is ensured that conductive layer 310 is had with the negative electrode on array base palte
Preferably make electrical contact with.
When negative electrode via is arranged on both sides or side or one jiao of viewing area, the thickness change of conductive layer 310
Equally follow following rule: apart from the position of negative electrode via more nearby, the thickness of conductive layer 310 is thinner, conductive layer for conductive layer 310
310 get at a distance apart from the position of negative electrode via, and its thickness is thicker.
Alternatively, described conductive layer can be netted, or multiple strip, or multiple lamellar.
Because organic illuminating element is more remote apart from negative electrode via, the cathode layer series electrical that negative electrode drive signal flows through when inputting
Resistance is more, and therefore organic illuminating element is more remote with the distance of negative electrode via, and the voltage of its received negative electrode drive signal damages
Lose also more, the light intensity that it sends is also weaker.In the present embodiment, get at a distance apart from negative electrode via in conductive layer 310, it is thick that it is set
Degree is thicker, and less resistance is incorporated in the corresponding resistance of organic illuminating element farther out apart from negative electrode via, can be by electricity
Resistance reduces to a greater degree, thus reducing light-intensity difference and other organic illuminating element between further that is to say, that more
The compensating action of the light intensity to organic illuminating element for the little resistance is bigger, and the inhomogenous situation of display can be made preferably to be changed
Kind.
Embodiment three
With reference to Fig. 9, the schematic top plan view of the cover plate of the organic light-emitting display device that Fig. 9 provides for the embodiment of the present invention three.
The consistency of thickness of its conductive layer 410 of organic light-emitting display device that embodiment three provides, but viewing area diverse location is led
The density of setting of electric layer 410 is made to change, on cover plate conductive layer 410 in the distribution density heterogeneity of viewing area, variation tendency with
The position of negative electrode via is relevant.
Negative electrode via is shown a case that in viewing area all around, in Fig. 9, region 450 corresponds to for negative electrode via in Fig. 9
Region, specifically, when array base palte and cover plate are oppositely arranged, the negative electrode of the corresponding array base palte in negative electrode via corresponding region 450
Via area, is negative electrode via area view field on the cover board.Conductive layer 410 has hollow-out parts 411 and non-hollow-out parts
412, the region outside organic illuminating element on the corresponding array base palte of non-hollow-out parts 412, correspondence mentioned here refers to, works as array
When substrate and cover plate are oppositely arranged, on the direction of vertical substrate, projection on array base palte for the non-hollow-out parts 412 falls organic
Region outside light-emitting component, so can avoid conductive layer 410 to block the light that organic illuminating element sends, to improve light in lid
Transmitance on plate.
In the present embodiment, the density of the non-hollow-out parts 412 of the conductive layer 410 at negative electrode via corresponding region 450
Density less than the non-hollow-out parts 412 away from the conductive layer 410 at negative electrode via corresponding region 450.When cover plate and array base palte
After bonding, be also believed to described conductive layer 410, non-hollow-out parts 412 density at negative electrode via area be less than away from
The density of the non-hollow-out parts 412 at negative electrode via area.
When negative electrode via is arranged on both sides or side or one jiao of viewing area, the non-hollow-out parts of conductive layer 410
412 variable density equally follows following rule: conductive layer 410 apart from the position of negative electrode via area more nearby, conductive layer 410
Non- hollow-out parts 412 density less, conductive layer 410 is got at a distance apart from the position of negative electrode via area, and the non-of conductive layer 410 is engraved
The density in empty portion 412 is bigger.
Figure 10 is the cover plate schematic top plan view of the embodiment of the present invention three another embodiment, shows that conductive layer 410 is
The situation of multiple horizontal strips, the distribution density of the non-hollow-out parts 412 of the mid portion of viewing area is larger, the leading of horizontal strip
Electric layer 410 reduces to both sides arrangement density from centre, and that is, the distribution density of non-hollow-out parts 412 is gradually reduced.
Alternatively, conductive layer can also be multiple longitudinal strips, or is multiple lamellars.
Because organic illuminating element is more remote apart from negative electrode via, the cathode layer series electrical that negative electrode drive signal flows through when inputting
Resistance is more, and therefore organic illuminating element is more remote with the distance of negative electrode via, and the voltage of its received negative electrode drive signal damages
Lose also more, the light intensity that it sends is also weaker.In the present embodiment, setting conductive layer is nearer apart from the position of negative electrode via area
Place, the density of the non-hollow-out parts of conductive layer is less, and conductive layer is got at a distance apart from the position of negative electrode via area, and the non-of conductive layer is engraved
The density in empty portion is bigger, and less resistance is incorporated in the corresponding resistance of organic illuminating element farther out apart from negative electrode via,
Resistance value can be reduced to a greater degree, thus reducing the light-intensity difference and other organic illuminating element between further,
That is, the compensating action of the less resistance light intensity to organic illuminating element is bigger, and the inhomogenous situation of display can be made to obtain
Improve to more preferable.
