Embodiment
By embodiment, the present invention is described in further detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, but the present invention is not restricted to this.
In the prior art, active OLED (i.e. AMOLED) is mainly used in display.Because display is in order to control the gray scale variation of each display pixel so must adopt capacitor, circuit relative complex.And lighting device does not need the gray scale variation controlling each pixel, therefore can not make electricity container, and only adopt TFT.Based on this thought, present inventor expects active OLED (i.e. AMOLED) for making lighting device, circuit so not only can be made simple, and due to AMOLED employing TFT, each light emitting pixel unit can be controlled separately, so when defect appears in some light emitting pixel unit, other light emitting pixel unit can not be affected, whole illuminating device luminous inefficacy more can not be caused.
In addition, because grid lead exists resistance, so make voltage in the flow direction to reduce gradually, the electric current I that TFT provides
dsalso can decrease.Because OLED is current d pivability device, I
dsreduction can cause coupled OLED luminosity also can decrease, thus affects the uniformity of luminance of whole lighting device to a certain extent.For this reason, the present invention considers that there is pressure drop region in the flow direction uses the TFT of greater number to reduce the impact of resistance on the luminosity of OLED.
Based on above-mentioned consideration, the invention provides a kind of OLED illumination device, it is by external control Power supply.Particularly, this OLED illumination device comprises plural light emitting pixel unit, and each light emitting pixel unit comprises an Organic Light Emitting Diode and one or more TFT.In each light emitting pixel unit, grid, the drain electrode of TFT are all connected to external control power supply, and the source electrode of TFT is connected to the anode of the Organic Light Emitting Diode in light emitting pixel unit, and the negative electrode of described Organic Light Emitting Diode is connected to external control power supply.Wherein, the quantity of TFT in the light emitting pixel unit of external control power supply is less than the quantity away from the TFT in the light emitting pixel unit of external control power supply, to die down brought impact for stream ability with the TFT alleviated away from external control power supply.
In above-mentioned OLED illumination device of the present invention, in described light emitting pixel unit, the TFT quantity in the light emitting pixel unit of external control power supply is at least than few one of the light emitting pixel unit away from external control power supply.
In addition, in each light emitting pixel unit, described TFT can be arranged on any side of light emitting pixel unit or a few side or corner as requested, and described TFT can be non-crystalline silicon tft or multi-crystal TFT.In addition, in each light emitting pixel unit, grid, the drain potential of described TFT can be different, also can be identical.
In addition, described external control power supply can be DC constant voltage power supply, also can be the power supply containing compensating circuit.Each light emitting pixel cellar area size can be 100 μm × 100 μm and arrive 2cm × 2cm.
On the one hand, the present invention is owing to adopting TFT, so each light emitting pixel unit can be controlled separately, on the other hand, owing to present invention contemplates the resistance of grid lead etc. to the impact of the electric current that TFT provides, use the TFT of greater number in the region away from external control power supply, thus the uniformity of luminance of lighting device of the present invention obtains large increase, at least can reach more than 90%.
In addition, due to TFT be voltage driven and this as controllable current source, so the power supply plan of active OLED lighting device of the present invention is simply cheap, such as, can adopt DC constant voltage Power supply scheme, general notebook adapter such as can be used to be used as power supply.
In addition, the present invention is not owing to making electricity container in light emitting pixel unit, and circuit is simplified, thus makes light emitting pixel unit light-emitting area comparatively large, and aperture opening ratio up to more than 65%, can improve stability of photoluminescence.In addition, lighting device of the present invention is so high unlike display to the uniformity requirements of each TFT, and therefore make yield higher, cost also becomes cheap.
Also have, because the production equipment producing active OLED lighting device and active OLED display can share, so it is produce active OLED lighting device or production displayer that a set of production equipment can switch according to market situation, thus can control preferably in manufacture and equipment cost.
Active mode is applicable to OLED illumination by the present invention, makes to utilize the present invention more easily to make large area lighting device.
