Therefore, even though the portable electronic device supports the multi-tasking function, there is a problem that it is not easy to actually perform the multi-tasking because it is limited by the size of the electronic display unit 311. Existed. For example, when checking an e-mail while watching a video, conventionally, it is not easy to divide a limited electronic device display 311 and display two work windows on the electronic device display 311 at the same time. Even if two work windows are displayed at the same time, there has been a problem that it is not easy for the user to identify them.
또한, 휴대전자기기에서 처리할 수 있는 데이터의 용량이 늘어나고 휴대전자기기를 사용하여 데이터를 주고받을 수 있는 데이터 통신 속도가 향상됨에 따라, 휴대전자기기를 통해 시청할 수 있는 동영상의 크기 및 해상도 등도 비약적으로 증가하고 있다. 그러나, 이와 같은 대용량, 고해상도의 영상을 시청하는데 있어서, 휴대전자기기 자체의 크기는 사용자의 휴대가 가능한 정도의 크기로 한정되어 있기 때문에, 작은 화면으로 대용량, 고해상도의 영상을 시청하는 데는 일정 정도 한계가 존재하였다. In addition, as the capacity of data that can be processed by the portable electronic device increases and the data communication speed that can exchange data using the portable electronic device increases, the size and resolution of a video that can be viewed through the portable electronic device also increases dramatically. Is increasing. However, in watching such a large-capacity, high-resolution video, the size of the portable electronic device itself is limited to a size that can be carried by the user, so that there is a limit to watching a large-capacity, high-resolution video on a small screen. Was present.

또는 전자기기 디스플레이부(311)와 케이스 디스플레이부(121)에서는 서로 상이한 작업이 수행되어 상이한 화면이 디스플레이될 수 있다. 예를 들어, 전자기기 디스플레이부(311) 상에서는 동영상 재생 애플리케이션이 실행되어 동영상이 재생되고, 동시에 케이스 디스플레이부(121) 상에서는 이메일 송수신 애플리케이션이 실행되어 이메일 확인 또는 작성이 수행될 수도 있는 것이다. Alternatively, different operations may be performed on the electronic device display 311 and the case display unit 121 to display different screens. For example, a video playback application is executed on the electronic device display 311 to play a video, and at the same time, an email transmission / reception application is executed on the case display 121 to check or write an email.
또는 전자기기 디스플레이부(311)와 케이스 디스플레이부(121)의 두 개의 디스플레이부를 통합하여 하나의 디스플레이부로 사용될 수도 있다. 즉, 특정 화면의 왼쪽 부분은 케이스 디스플레이부(121)에 디스플레이되고, 오른쪽 부분은 전자기기 디스플레이부(311)에 디스플레이되어, 케이스 디스플레이부(121)와 전자기기 디스플레이부(311)가 통합된 하나의 큰 화면을 이룰 수도 있는 것이다. Alternatively, two display units of the electronic device display unit 311 and the case display unit 121 may be integrated and used as one display unit. That is, the left part of the specific screen is displayed on the case display unit 121, and the right part is displayed on the electronic device display unit 311 so that the case display unit 121 and the electronic device display unit 311 are integrated. It can also make a big screen.

이 중에서, 유기 전계 발광 소자는 형광성 유기 화합물을 전기적으로 여기(exitation)시켜서 발광시키는 자발광형 디스플레이로 낮은 전압에서 구동이 가능하고, 박형화가 용이하며, 광시야각, 빠른 응답 속도 등 액정 디스플레이에 있어서 문제점으로 지적되는 것을 해결할 수 있는 차세대 디스플레이로 주목받고 있다. 유기 전계 발광 소자는 애노드 전극과 캐소드 전극 사이에 유기물로 이루어진 발광층을 구비하고 있다. 유기 전계 발광 소자는 이들 전극들에 양극 및 음극 전압이 각각 인가됨에 따라 애노드 전극으로부터 주입된 정공(hole)이 정공 수송층을 경유하여 발광층으로 이동되고, 전자는 캐소드 전극으로부터 전자 수송층을 경유하여 발광층으로 이동되어서, 발광층에서 전자와 정공이 재결합하여 여기자(exiton)을 생성하게 된다. 이 여기자가 여기 상태에서 기저 상태로 변화됨에 따라, 발광층의 형광성 분자가 발광함으로써 화상을 형성하게 된다. 풀 컬러(full color)형 유기 전계 발광 소자의 경우에는 적(R),녹(G),청(B)의 삼색을 발광하는 화소(pixel)를 구비토록 함으로써 풀 컬러를 구현한다.Among them, the organic electroluminescent device is a self-luminous display that electrically emits fluorescent organic compounds to emit light, and can be driven at a low voltage, is easy to thin, and has a wide viewing angle and a fast response speed. It is attracting attention as the next generation display that can solve the problem pointed out. The organic EL device includes a light emitting layer made of an organic material between the anode electrode and the cathode electrode. In the organic electroluminescent device, as the anode and cathode voltages are applied to these electrodes, holes injected from the anode are moved to the light emitting layer via the hole transport layer, and electrons are transferred from the cathode electrode to the light emitting layer via the electron transport layer. The electrons and holes recombine in the emission layer to generate excitons. As the excitons change from the excited state to the ground state, the fluorescent molecules in the light emitting layer emit light to form an image. In the case of a full color organic electroluminescent device, a full color is realized by providing a pixel emitting three colors of red (R), green (G), and blue (B).
