Abstract

Disclosed is an organic light emitting diode display device having improved light extraction efficiency and display quality. The organic light emitting diode display device includes a plurality of sub-pixels including organic light emitting cells arranged in an inner side of a substrate, a groove formed between neighboring sub-pixels, and a light extraction pattern formed over an outer surface of the substrate.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An organic light emitting diode display device comprising:
a substrate including grooves;
a plurality of sub-pixels comprising organic light emitting cells arranged in an inner side of the substrate; and
a light extraction pattern over an outer side surface of the substrate,
wherein each of the grooves corresponds to each boundary between neighboring subpixels and is engraved on the substrate.

2. The organic light emitting diode display device according to claim 1 , wherein the grooves are filled with air or a reflective material.

3. The organic light emitting diode display device according to claim 1 , wherein the grooves are positioned in the inner side of the substrate or the outer side of the substrate.

4. The organic light emitting diode display device according to claim 1 , wherein the grooves integrally surround boundaries of the sub-pixels.

5. An organic light emitting diode display device comprising:
a substrate;
a plurality of sub-pixels comprising organic light emitting cells arranged in an inner side of the substrate;
a light extraction pattern over an outer side of the substrate;
a resin layer between the organic light emitting cells and the substrate; and
a hole corresponding to each boundary between neighboring sub-pixels and penetrating the resin layer.

6. The organic light emitting diode display device according to claim 5 , wherein the hole is filled with air or a reflective material.

7. The organic light emitting diode display device according to claim 5 , wherein the hole integrally surrounds boundaries of the sub-pixels.
