Abstract:
A display device includes a first substrate having a first step part formed in a frame area on a periphery of a display area, a second substrate arranged facing the first substrate, and a filler material filled between the first substrate in one part of the display area and the frame area, and the second substrate, a periphery edge part being located in a range from the first step part to an end part of the first substrate and the second substrate.
Abstract:
A sealing substrate is arranged to oppositely face an element substrate on which organic EL layers are formed in a matrix array with a sealing material sandwiched therebetween. A gel-state desiccant is filled in an inner space surrounded by the element substrate, the sealing substrate and the sealing material. Since the gel-state desiccant is in a gel state, the gel-state desiccant is flexibly filled in the inner space of the organic EL display device thus completely eliminating a gap. Since the inner space is filled with the gel-state desiccant, moisture hardly intrudes into the inner space from the outside and, at the same time, a mechanical strength of the organic EL display device is also enhanced.
