Arrangement of sealing materials for display device
First Claim
1. A display device comprising:
- a first substrate;
a pixel portion including a plurality of light emitting elements over the first substrate;
a second substrate over the first substrate and the pixel portiona first sealing material provided between the first substrate and the second substrate and surrounding the pixel portion, wherein the first sealing material has a first end, a second end, and an opening between the first end and the second end; and
a second sealing material provided on the inside of the first sealing material and covering the pixel portion,wherein a part of the second sealing material spreads out from the opening.

Abstract
A light emitting device having a structure in which oxygen and moisture are prevented from reaching light emitting elements, and a method of manufacturing the same, are provided. Further, the light emitting elements are sealed by using a small number of process steps, without enclosing a drying agent. The present invention has a top surface emission structure. A substrate on which the light emitting elements are formed is bonded to a transparent sealing substrate. The structure is one in which a transparent second sealing material covers the entire surface of a pixel region when bonding the two substrates, and a first sealing material (having a higher viscosity than the second sealing material), which contains a gap material (filler, fine particles, or the like) for protecting a gap between the two substrates, surrounds the pixel region. The two substrates are sealed by the first sealing material and the second sealing material. Further, reaction between electrodes of the light emitting elements (cathodes or anodes) and the sealing materials can be prevented by covering the electrodes with a transparent protective layer, for example, CaF2, MgF2, or BaF2.
