Organic electroluminescent white light source and method for manufacturing the same
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An organic electroluminescent device having a laminated structure that causes light emission, comprising:
- a common anode;
a common cathode; and
a plurality of luminous layers sandwiched between said common anode and said common cathode, said luminous layers emitting different colors, and grouped to define a plurality of luminous regions, wherein said common anode and said common cathode are arranged to activate all of said luminous regions by applying a voltage to said luminous layers, thereby emitting a light collectively mixed thereof.

Abstract
A white backlight is provided by mixing a plurality of luminous lights with balanced white light, while minimizing power consumption and reducing manufacturing cost. Luminous regions are finely arranged in order to uniformly mix a plurality of luminous colors. A white light is obtained by simultaneously lighting luminous colors in the plurality of luminous regions using a single power source. The shape of the luminous regions is determined for depositing the luminous layers.
