Light emitting apparatus including resin banks and electronic device having same
First Claim
1. A light emitting apparatus, comprising:
- an organic electroluminescence element including;
a substrate;
a first electrode having a light transmission property;
a second electrode having a light reflection property;
a light emitting layer sandwiched between the first and second electrodes, and the light emitting layer being disposed only inside a boundary defined by overlapping areas of the first and second electrodes;
a semi-reflection film that reflects at least a part of light;
a plurality of pixel apertures on which the light emitting layer is disposed;
spaces between the pixel apertures on which the light emitting layer is not disposed;
resin banks disposed at the spaces;
the first electrode is disposed between the light emitting layer and the semi-reflection film;
a transparent layer and a reflection layer formed on the spaces between the pixels;
a thickness of the transparent layer being set such that a phase of a third reflection light is deviated from a phase of a fourth reflection light at an angle of about 180°
;
the third reflection light being incident on the light emitting apparatus, reflected by the semi-reflection film and exits from the spaces between the pixel; and
the fourth reflection light being transmitted through the semi-reflection film and the transparent layer, and reflected by the reflection layer; and
a thin film transistor, the reflection layer functioning as an electrode of the thin film transistor.

Abstract
The invention provides an organic EL apparatus including a substrate, a pair of electrodes formed on the substrate, and a light emitting layer disposed between the electrodes is provided in order to implement a light emitting apparatus and an electronic device which decrease reflections in a display of the organic EL apparatus, and to enhance display quality. The substrate includes a transparent substrate, the pair of the electrodes is an anode disposed on the light emitting layer at the substrate side, and a cathode disposed on the light emitting layer at an opposite side of the substrate. A semi-reflection film is disposed near the anode. The semi-reflection film transmits a part of external light incident on the organic EL apparatus from the substrate, and reflects a part of the light other than the light transmitted.
