Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a flat panel display field, and more particularly to a WOLED display device.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The active matrix panel display elements possess many merits of thin frame, power saving, no radiation, etc. and have been widely used. The Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display technology is a flat panel display technology which has great prospects for development. It possesses extremely excellent display performance, and particularly the properties of self-illumination, simple structure, ultra thin, fast response speed, wide view angle, low power consumption and capability of realizing flexible display, and therefore is considered as the “dream display”. Meanwhile, the investment for the production equipments is far smaller than the Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD). It has been favored by respective big display makers and has become the main selection of the third generation display element of the display technology field. At present, the OLED has reached the point before mass production. With the further research and development, the new technologies constantly appear, and someday, there will be a breakthrough for the development of the OLED display elements.

For realizing the full color of the OLED display device, one way is to achieve it by laminating the White Organic Light Emitting Diode (WOLED) and the Color Filter (CF). The lamination structure of the WOLED and CF does not require accurate mask process to achieve the high resolution of the OLED display device, which is the one that has been widely applied.

FIG. 1 is a structure diagram of a red sub pixel region of a WOLED display device utilizing the aforesaid structure; the device comprises a substrate 100, a TFT structure 200 located on the substrate 100, a first passivation layer 300 covering the TFT structure 200, a red color resist layer 410 located on the first passivation layer 300, a second passivation layer 500 being located on the first passivation layer 300 and covering the red color resist layer 410 and a WOLED 600 located on the second passivation layer 500 and driven by the TFT structure 200. The structures of the green sub pixel region and the blue sub pixel region on the WOLED display device are the same as that of the red sub pixel region. The white light emitting layer of the WOLED is formed by red, green, blue emitting fluorescent materials mixed evaporation. The red, green, blue color resist layers of the color filter cannot better filtrate the white light emitted by the white light emitting layer. As shown in FIG. 2, which is a spectrum diagram of white light emitted by an illustrated WOLED, there are certain peaks in the two positions which are indicated with circles (between 480 nm and 530 nm, between 530 nm and 580 nm). The existence of the peaks makes that the effects of and blue light and the green light are poor after the white light source emitted by the WOLED passes through the color filter layer. Particularly, after the white light passes through the blue color resist layer, the half band width of the blue light is wider in general, and the purity of the blue light is lower. As shown in FIG. 3, which is a spectrum diagram that the red, green, blue light resist layers in the color filter layer respectively filtrated white light emitted by the WOLED in an illustrated WOLED display device. The small protrusion in figure indicated with circle (between 480 nm and 530 nm) will influence the purity of the blue light. Therefore, the WOLED display device has drawbacks that the lighting purities of the red, green, blue, three primary colors are relatively low, and the color gamut is narrow.
