manufacturing DISPLAY APPARATUS AND A METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME By www.freepatentsonline.com Published On :: Thu, 29 Jun 2017 08:00:00 EDT A display apparatus including a substrate; a display unit disposed on the substrate; a sealing layer disposed on the display unit; a touch screen layer disposed on the sealing layer; and a buffer layer disposed between the sealing layer and the touch screen layer. The sealing layer includes n sealing units each including an organic layer and an inorganic layer, in which n is an integer of 1 or greater. The organic layer and the inorganic layer are sequentially stacked on the display unit. The organic layer includes a cured product for forming an organic layer including a first photocurable monomer. The buffer layer includes a cured product for forming a buffer layer including a second and third photocurable monomer. The first and second photocurable monomers include a photocurable functional group. The third photocurable monomer is represented by Formulae 1A to 1C. Full Article
manufacturing DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A DISPLAY DEVICE By www.freepatentsonline.com Published On :: Thu, 29 Jun 2017 08:00:00 EDT A display device, which includes a display region constituted by a plurality of pixels, includes a first substrate having a hygroscopic agent formed in a peripheral region outside the display region and a sealing film covering the hygroscopic agent, a second substrate disposed facing the first substrate, and an adhesive layer, at least a portion of which is disposed closer to the side of the display region than the hygroscopic agent, and which bonds the first substrate to the second substrate.

manufacturing OLED DISPLAY PANEL AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME By www.freepatentsonline.com Published On :: Thu, 29 Jun 2017 08:00:00 EDT An OLED display panel with a method manufacturing the same includes: a substrate; an OLED display device, formed on the substrate; a cover plate, disposed on the substrate to seal the OLED display device; and a first resonant cavity layer, formed on the OLED display device and below the cover plate, configured to absorb blue light with wavelengths between 400 and 440 nm. By adjusting a resonant cavity length of the resonant cavity, the present disclosure changes a proportion of energy of blue light to a preset wavelength band in emitting light, significantly reduces a proportion of a spectrum below 435 nm to the preset wavelength band, and reduces material use of the resonant cavity layer, being conducive to improving device efficiency and reducing production cost, and being able to obtain eye-protecting effect at the same time.
