Can obviously find out to have very good characteristic according to the organic EL display apparatus of the 3rd execution mode with comparing as the organic EL display apparatus of typical case's contrast display device 3 from Fig. 5 A and table 3.This be because, under the situation according to the organic EL display apparatus of the 3rd execution mode, second electrode 22 and first member 51 are in direct contact with one another, the feasible light that is sent by luminescent device 10 does not exist and obtains loss.In addition, can obviously find out from Fig. 5 A, compare with the organic EL display apparatus that is used as typical case's contrast display device 3 ' with the organic EL display apparatus as typical case's contrast display device 3, organic EL display apparatus according to the 3rd execution mode not only has higher front face brightness value, but also has the higher brightness relative value under the big angle of visual field.That is to say to have higher brightness value according to the organic EL display apparatus of the 3rd execution mode, and watching the angle of visual field of organic EL display apparatus irrelevant with the user.Therefore, the organic EL display apparatus according to the 3rd execution mode is the organic EL display apparatus that expectation is used for television receiver.
In addition, the angle of visual field by the light that will be sent by luminescent device 10 is taken as the variable element that expenditure is represented, the organic EL display apparatus according to the 3rd execution mode has been carried out simulation and has distributed with the angle of visual field that draws energy in first member 51.Analog result is shown in Fig. 5 B.In this case, critical angle is 33 degree, and the value by calculation expression arcsin (1.0/1.81) obtains.Critical angle is limiting angle, and in the configuration that does not comprise reflector, light can't surpass this limiting angle and export atmosphere to from first member 51 with refractive index 1.81.Therefore, can export atmosphere to from first member 51 at the degree of 0 shown in Fig. 5 B to the light in the 33 degree scopes.This light representations export to first member 51 the inboard all light 31%.
In the organic EL display apparatus as typical case's contrast display device 3, be adhered on the luminescent device of first substrate by the reflector of adhesive layer with second substrate.Therefore, light enters reflector by adhesive layer.Critical angle for the light that incides adhesive (such as the acrylic acid series reagent with refractive index of about 1.5) is 56 degree, and the value by calculation expression arcsin (1.5/1.81) obtains.Therefore, can utilize unlike 0 shown in Fig. 5 B degree light to the scope of the wide ranges of 56 degree.This light representations export to first member the inboard all light 75%.
On the other hand, under the situation according to the organic EL display apparatus that makes the 3rd execution mode that second electrode 22 and first member 51 be in direct contact with one another, can utilize unlike the light of the degree of 0 shown in Fig. 5 B to the scope of 90 wide ranges of spending.This light representations export to first member 51 the inboard all light 100%.Therefore, under the situation according to the organic EL display apparatus of the 3rd execution mode, can utilize the 3(=100/33 that has up to for the light quantity of the situation that reflector is not set) light of doubly amount.In addition, under the situation according to the organic EL display apparatus of the 3rd execution mode, can utilize to have up to for the 1.3(=100/75 as the light quantity of the organic EL display apparatus of typical case's contrast display device 3) light of doubly amount.It should be noted that to calculate to obtain from luminescent device 10 and be transmitted to light intensity that the efficient and multiply by of the light of first member 51 sends first member, 51 inboards to obtain the light intensity of first member, 51 inboards.After the light intensity of obtaining first member, 51 inboards, on all wavelengths intensity is being carried out integration to obtain the energy under the specific angle of visual field.Can obviously find out from Fig. 5 B, even if the light that is sent by luminescent device 10 also has bigger energy under the bigger angle of visual field.In other words, under the situation according to the organic EL display apparatus of the 3rd execution mode, even if the user also can watch bright image under the bigger angle of visual field.
The 4th execution mode
The 4th execution mode also is the revision of first execution mode.Under the first execution mode situation, the end face of first member 51 is positioned at the level approximately identical with the end face of second member 52.That is to say, with the space between adjacent second member 52 of first member, 51 fillings.On the other hand, under the situation of the 4th execution mode, as ise apparent from FIG. 6, make up the first member 51A with stratiform in the zone between adjacent second member 52, Fig. 6 is the illustraton of model that illustrates according to the part of the section of the display device of the 4th execution mode.Particularly, on second electrode 22, structure has 1.806 refractive index n 1The stratiform first member 51A with the average thickness of 0.2 μ m.Zone 51B is the zone of first electrode, 21 tops.Zone 51B by second member 52 and respectively the stratiform first member 51A of in second member 52 structure center on.Subsequently, by Si 1-yN yThe insulating protective film 31 that (silicon nitride) made is formed on the whole surface, and this surface is the zone of the top face of regional 51B and second member 52.The most important thing is, make up sealing material layer 32 and colour filter 33 at diaphragm 31.A part that it should be noted that sealing material layer 32 extends to regional 51B area inside.
Except as described above, have and the configuration identical according to the configuration of the organic EL display apparatus of first execution mode according to the organic EL display apparatus of the 4th execution mode.Therefore, do not elaborate configuration according to the organic EL display apparatus of the 4th execution mode.
Under the situation of the 4th execution mode 4A, will have the refractive index n of the first member 51A of stratiform 1Refractive index n with diaphragm 31 3Between poor (| n 1– n 3|) be set at 0.2 constant value, that is, (| n 1– n 3|)=0.2.By changing the refractive index n of the first member 51A 1Come the 4th execution mode 4A is simulated in the hope of the amount of light ratio.Shown in the table 4 that analog result provides hereinafter.Be 1.00 to obtain the light amount ratio shown in the table 4 by the light quantity setting that the typical case is contrasted display device 3 '.That is to say, be ratio for light quantity with the light quantity of typical case's contrast display device 3 ' of this situation for the light amount ratio of the situation in the table 4.In addition, with the refractive index n of second member 52 2Be set at 1.61.It should be noted that the parameter of the reflector layer that adopts is identical with the parameter shown in the table 1 at the reflector layer that adopts in the organic EL display apparatus according to the 3rd execution mode in the organic EL display apparatus according to the 4th execution mode 4A.In addition, the array of sub-pixels that adopts in the array of sub-pixels that adopts in the organic EL display apparatus according to the 4th execution mode 4A and the organic EL display apparatus according to the 3rd execution mode is identical.
Table 4
Can obviously find out from table 4, if will have the refractive index n of the first member 51A of stratiform 1Refractive index n with diaphragm 31 3Between poor (| n 1– n 3|) being set at 0.2 constant value, the first member 51A that then has stratiform can fully show the function of the photo-emission part that is used as reflector.In addition, if having the refractive index n of the first member 51A of stratiform 1Refractive index n greater than diaphragm 31 3, then light amount ratio is relatively little, as by at the digital certificate shown in the case (11) to (14) of table 4.
In addition, also checked relational expression between the angle of visual field and the brightness relative value.Such as before elaboration, the brightness relative value is to be 1 normalized value that obtains by the brightness settings that the typical case contrasted under 0 in the display device 3 ' the degree angle of visual field.Assay shows that for case (11) and (12), to the scope of the angles of visual field of-40 degree, the brightness relative value is relatively large in-90 angles of visual field of spending, and in the scope of the angle of visual field that the angles of visual field to 0 of-40 degree are spent, the brightness relative value is less relatively.On the other hand, in the scope of the angle of visual field that the angle of visual field to 40 of 0 degree is spent, the brightness relative value is relatively large again, and in the scope of the angle of visual field that the angles of visual field to 90 of 40 degree are spent, the brightness relative value is less relatively again.That is to say that assay shows that the brightness relative value has two peak values.Therefore it is evident that when the user watched organic EL display apparatus from the front, brightness reduced.
