Abstract

The present invention is an electronic device comprising a first substrate, a second substrate arranged opposite the first substrate, a sealed portion arranged between the first substrate and the second substrate, and a sealing portion that connects the first and the second substrate and is provided around the sealed portion, wherein at least a portion of the sealing portion following along the periphery of the sealed portion has outer resin sealing portions respectively fixed to the first substrate and the second substrate and an intermediate resin sealing portion arranged so as to be interposed by the outer resin sealing portions between the first substrate and the second substrate, the outer resin sealing portions and the intermediate resin sealing portion contain resin, and a melt flow rate or melting point of the intermediate resin sealing portion differs from a melt flow rate or melting point of the outer resin sealing portions.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An electronic device comprising:
a first substrate;
a second substrate arranged opposite the first substrate;
a sealed portion arranged between the first substrate and the second substrate; and
a sealing portion that connects the first substrate and the second substrate and is provided around the sealed portion, wherein
at least a portion of the sealing portion following along the periphery of the sealed portion has:
outer resin sealing portions respectively fixed to the first substrate and the second substrate and,
an intermediate resin sealing portion arranged so as to be interposed by the outer resin sealing portions between the first substrate and the second substrate,
both the outer resin sealing portions and the intermediate resin sealing portion contain a resin, the resin being an acid-modified polyethylene,
a melt flow rate of the intermediate resin sealing portion is larger than a melt flow rate of the outer resin sealing portions, and
the difference between the melt flow rate of the intermediate resin sealing portion and the melt flow rate of the outer resin sealing portions is 1 g/10 min or more,
the first substrate includes a porous oxide semiconductor layer, an electrically conductive film having a surface, and a protruding portion,
the porous oxide semiconductor layer is formed on the surface of the electrically conductive film,
the protruding portion is formed on the surface of the electrically conductive film and protrudes on the surface of the electrically conductive film,
the protruding portion is arranged between the outer resin sealing portion and the electrically conductive film,
the protruding portion is composed of an inorganic insulating material, the inorganic insulating material consisting of a glass frit,
the protruding portion is in direct contact with the outer sealing portion and is interposed between the outer sealing portion fixed to the first substrate and the electrically conductive film, and
the sealed portion is an electrolyte.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising a covering portion on the opposite side of the sealed portion to the sealing portion, the covering portion at least covering a boundary between the first substrate and the sealing portion, a boundary between the second substrate and the sealing portion, and the boundaries between the intermediate resin sealing portion and the outer resin sealing portions, and the covering portion containing the second resin.

3. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the difference between the melt flow rate of the intermediate resin sealing portion and the melt flow rate of the outer resin sealing portions is from 2.5 g/10 min to 25 g/10 min.
