本發明係關於顯示裝置及顯示裝置的製造方法,更詳細為有關於提高具有藉由著色劑或量子點所構成的彩色濾光器層之彩色濾光器方式的顯示裝置之光提取效率,且提高耐光性及耐濕熱性之高品質的顯示裝置,與故障缺陷少而提高生產效率之顯示裝置的製造方法。The present invention relates to a display device and a method of manufacturing the display device, and more specifically to improving the light extraction efficiency of a color filter type display device having a color filter layer composed of colorants or quantum dots, and A high-quality display device with improved light resistance and humidity resistance, and a manufacturing method for a display device with fewer defects and improved production efficiency.
對於產業界,以電晶體及二極管作為代表的多數電子產品構件會因水或氧而引起劣化,故施予稱為密封加工或鈍化處理(鈍化)之加工。特別為將電子傳導由有機化合物來承擔的顯示裝置,例如有機薄膜電晶體或有機薄膜太陽電池、有機電致發光元件(以下稱為「有機EL元件」)等,對水分子特別敏感,故需要極高度之密封技術。In the industry, most electronic product components represented by transistors and diodes are degraded by water or oxygen, so processing called sealing processing or passivation (passivation) is applied. Especially for display devices where the conduction of electrons is undertaken by organic compounds, such as organic thin-film transistors or organic thin-film solar cells, organic electroluminescence elements (hereinafter referred to as "organic EL elements"), etc., which are particularly sensitive to water molecules, so they need Extremely high sealing technology.
顯示裝置之一的有機EL顯示器與液晶顯示裝置相比較,因具有視野角依賴性較少,對比較高,且可薄膜化等利點,故受到注目,而正進行著各種檢討。另外,大型電視已經投入市場中,平板顯示器加速擴大市場。Compared with the liquid crystal display device, the organic EL display, which is one of the display devices, has the advantages of less viewing angle dependence, higher contrast, and thin film thickness, so it is attracting attention and various reviews are being conducted. In addition, large-scale TVs have been put into the market, and flat-panel displays have accelerated their market expansion.
且,對於有機EL顯示器,由擴大適用領域的自由度之觀點來看,使用以樹脂薄膜等所構成的具備柔軟性之可撓性基材的有機EL顯示器之開發正受到重視。藉由對於有機EL顯示器等使用可撓性基材,除要求輕量化及大型化以外,具有可實現滾動再滾動之生產適性、提高形狀自由度、可曲面顯示等優點,取代重量重而容易裂開,且大面積化困難之玻璃基材而廣泛被利用。In addition, with regard to organic EL displays, from the viewpoint of expanding the degree of freedom in the field of application, the development of organic EL displays using flexible and flexible substrates made of resin films or the like is attracting attention. By using flexible substrates for organic EL displays, in addition to requiring lighter weight and larger size, it has the advantages of realizing roll-and-rolling production suitability, improved shape freedom, and curved display. It replaces heavy weight and easily cracks. It is widely used as a glass substrate which is difficult to open and enlarge the area.
然而,可撓性基材相對於玻璃基材,有著氣體阻隔性不佳的問題。例如,作為有機EL元件用之基材使用可撓性基材時,因水蒸氣透過性或氧透過性高,適用於對水分或氧較為弱的有機EL元件時,作為氣體阻隔性可說是不充分,所構成的有機功能層等會因水分或氧而劣化,引起像素收縮或亮度降低等,成為損失耐久性的要因。However, the flexible substrate has the problem of poor gas barrier properties compared to the glass substrate. For example, when a flexible substrate is used as a substrate for an organic EL element, it has high water vapor permeability or oxygen permeability and is suitable for organic EL elements that are weak to moisture or oxygen. Insufficient, the constituted organic functional layer and the like will be degraded by moisture or oxygen, causing shrinkage of pixels or reduction in brightness, etc., which will be a cause of loss of durability.
作為解決上述問題的方法之一,使用具備具有高氣體阻隔性的氣體阻隔層之可撓性基材,形成含有電極及發光層之有機功能層的可撓性有機EL顯示器之檢討正進行著(例如參照專利文獻1)。As one of the methods to solve the above-mentioned problems, the use of a flexible substrate with a gas barrier layer with high gas barrier properties to form an organic functional layer containing electrodes and a light-emitting layer is currently under review ( For example, refer to Patent Document 1).
另一方面,對於顯示裝置之開發,由製造成本之減低、大畫面TV之產率提高、製造步驟之簡便化等觀點來看,例如作為發光構件,使用白色發光方式之有機EL元件,配置於光提取側由著色劑所構成的彩色濾光器,使RGB發光之方式的檢討正被進行。進一步作為彩色濾光器之構成,對於RGB塗分法亦由於使用蒸鍍掩膜的製造精度或蒸鍍所造成的影子之影響,所顯示的彩色圖像之高精細化有著極限,作為進一步高精細化的嘗試,作為彩色濾光器,使用含有量子點而色變換發光的彩色濾光器之含有量子點的有機發光元件(以下亦稱為「QD-OLED」)之檢討正被檢討著(例如參照專利文獻2及3)。On the other hand, for the development of display devices, from the viewpoints of reducing manufacturing costs, increasing the yield of large-screen TVs, and simplifying manufacturing steps, for example, as a light-emitting member, an organic EL element of a white light-emitting method is used and arranged in The color filter made of coloring agent on the light extraction side is being reviewed for the way that RGB emits light. Furthermore, as the structure of the color filter, for the RGB coating method, due to the manufacturing accuracy of the vapor deposition mask or the influence of the shadow caused by vapor deposition, there is a limit to the high definition of the color image displayed. Attempts to refine, as a color filter, the use of a color filter containing quantum dots and color-converted light-emitting organic light-emitting devices containing quantum dots (hereinafter also referred to as "QD-OLED") is being reviewed ( For example, refer to
然而,使用上述著色劑的彩色濾光器方式,或使用量子點的彩色濾光器方式中,於形成彩色濾光器單元時,因必須設置平坦化層,而折射率小,且進一步有著與彩色濾光器層的折射率差變大等問題,提取光的損失為高,藉著彩色濾光器單元所顯示的發光性能會降低,欲不要降低作為發光裝置之發光亮度,作為該對應,提高發光層自體之發光效率成為必要,所望的光提取特性,例如發光亮度的確保盡力努力達成。又,於形成彩色濾光器後所填充的填充劑,因藉由有機聚合物所成的透明樹脂層而構成,藉此亦有透過率至少降低1%以上的問題。另外,彩色濾光器容易吸收水分,藉由自密封後的彩色濾光器釋出水分,導致接近經配置的有機EL元件之有機功能層等的劣化,有著密封缺陷所引起的產率降低之問題。[先前技術文獻][專利文獻]However, in the color filter method using the above-mentioned colorant or the color filter method using quantum dots, when the color filter unit is formed, a flattening layer must be provided, and the refractive index is small, and it is further The color filter layer has a large refractive index difference, and the loss of extracted light is high. The luminous performance displayed by the color filter unit will be reduced. If you want to reduce the luminous brightness of the light-emitting device, as a countermeasure, It is necessary to improve the luminous efficiency of the light-emitting layer itself, and the desired light extraction characteristics, such as the guarantee of the luminous brightness, are tried hard to achieve. In addition, the filler filled after the color filter is formed is composed of a transparent resin layer made of an organic polymer, which also has a problem that the transmittance is reduced by at least 1%. In addition, the color filter easily absorbs moisture, and the moisture is released from the sealed color filter, resulting in deterioration of the organic functional layer close to the configured organic EL element, and the reduction in yield caused by sealing defects problem.[Prior Technical Literature][Patent Literature]

依據本發明可提供,可提高在具有著色劑或量子點所構成的彩色濾光器層之彩色濾光器方式的顯示裝置之光提取效率,且提高耐光性及耐濕熱性之高品質的顯示裝置,與故障缺陷較少且生產效率提高的顯示裝置之製造方法。According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a high-quality display that can improve the light extraction efficiency of a color filter type display device having a color filter layer composed of a colorant or a quantum dot, and improve the light resistance and humidity resistance Device, and manufacturing method of display device with fewer defects and improved production efficiency.
由以本發明所規定的構成所成的面發光面板之技術特徵與該效果之表現機構可由以下做推察。The technical characteristics of the surface light-emitting panel formed by the configuration specified in the present invention and the performance mechanism of the effect can be inferred as follows.
在本發明中提供一種構成膜,其為對於具備彩色濾光器單元的顯示裝置,於構成彩色濾光器單元的彩色濾光器層或前述平坦化層的至少1層上,藉由含有具有前述一般式(1)所示結構的有機金屬氧化物,含有該有機金屬氧化物之構成層作為化學反應型的水分之吸氣劑而作用,且僅釋出與水分的反應之份量的撥水性或疏水性物質,具備如此對於水分透過的新穎吸濕特性或密封特性的構成膜者。In the present invention, there is provided a constituent film, which is, for a display device having a color filter unit, on at least one of the color filter layer constituting the color filter unit or the aforementioned planarization layer, by containing The organometallic oxide of the structure represented by the aforementioned general formula (1), the constituent layer containing the organometallic oxide acts as a getter of chemically reactive water, and only releases the water repellency of the amount of the reaction with the water Or a hydrophobic substance, which has such novel moisture absorption properties or sealing properties for water penetration.
即,具有前述一般式(1)所示結構的有機金屬氧化物藉由水解,而生成與經淬火的水分子等莫耳之氟化醇,因此具有撥水功能或疏水功能,可防止此以上的水侵入者。因此,比起過去的化學反應型的吸濕劑,水分的侵入防止效果極高,除對於單一組成膜具有乾燥性,亦可發揮藉由與水分之反應而加成撥水功能等的相乘效果(協同作用效果),具有在過去的吸濕劑及有機薄膜不具有的特徵之革新性技術。That is, the organometallic oxide having the structure represented by the general formula (1) is hydrolyzed to generate a molar fluorinated alcohol such as quenched water molecules. Therefore, it has a water-repellent function or a hydrophobic function, which can prevent this. Water invaders. Therefore, compared with the conventional chemical reaction type moisture absorption agent, the moisture intrusion prevention effect is extremely high. In addition to the drying property for a single composition film, it can also play a multiplier with the addition of water repellent function by reaction with moisture. Effect (synergistic effect), innovative technology with characteristics that were not available in the past moisture absorbents and organic films.
又,含有具有本發明有關一般式(1)所示結構之有機金屬氧化物的彩色濾光器層或前述平坦化層為採用以下方法形成,該方法為,將金屬烷氧化物溶液作為原料,一般稱為溶膠・凝膠法的藉由金屬烷氧化物之水解與接續進行的聚縮合反應而合成有機無機雜合化合物(Organic inorganic bismuth compound),形成該構成層的方法。In addition, the color filter layer containing the organometallic oxide having the structure represented by the general formula (1) of the present invention or the aforementioned planarization layer is formed by the following method, which uses a metal alkoxide solution as a raw material, The method of synthesizing organic inorganic bismuth compound (Organic inorganic bismuth compound) through the hydrolysis of metal alkoxide and subsequent polycondensation reaction, which is generally called the sol-gel method, to form the constituent layer.
作為將無機氧化物以塗布方式進行成膜的常規手段,已有溶膠・凝膠法廣泛被知道。該方法為,一般將金屬烷氧化物溶液作為原料,以藉由金屬烷氧化物之水解,與接續進行的聚縮合反應而形成無機氧化物的方法,將金屬烷氧化物的一部分非作為烷氧基而係作為烷基或芳基時,該基在溶膠・凝膠反應後亦可被保持,故可形成將無機氧化物作為基底的有機無機雜合化合物膜。As a conventional method for forming a film of an inorganic oxide by a coating method, the sol-gel method is widely known. This method generally uses a metal alkoxide solution as a raw material to form an inorganic oxide through the hydrolysis of the metal alkoxide and subsequent polycondensation reactions. A part of the metal alkoxide is not used as an alkoxide. When the group is an alkyl group or an aryl group, the group can be retained after the sol-gel reaction, so that an organic-inorganic hybrid compound film with an inorganic oxide as a base can be formed.
基本上,可進行烷氧基化的所有金屬元素雖可適用於該溶膠・凝膠法,但實際上,在大氣中作為溶液時會引起凝膠化,而幾乎皆成為無法塗布的情況,具有實用價值者僅限於矽(四烷氧基矽烷)。該理由為,金屬元素為鈦或鋯之情況時,因該烷氧化物化合物本身為路易氏酸,水解反應後的脫水聚縮合之反應會以觸媒方式加速,會馬上引起凝膠化之故。Basically, all metal elements that can be alkoxylated can be applied to the sol/gel method, but in fact, when used as a solution in the atmosphere, gelation occurs, and almost all of them cannot be applied. The practical value is limited to silicon (tetraalkoxysilane). The reason is that when the metal element is titanium or zirconium, since the alkoxide compound itself is Lewis acid, the dehydration polycondensation reaction after the hydrolysis reaction will be accelerated by a catalyst, which will immediately cause gelation. .
又,鹼金屬或鹼土類金屬之情況時,即使為烷氧化物,因成為鹼性,最初的水解反應非常快,另一方面,因脫水聚縮合反應較為慢,難得到有機金屬氧化物。但因具有該中間性質者為矽烷氧化物,對於藉由溶膠・凝膠法的有機金屬氧化物合成或有機金屬氧化物薄膜形成中僅可使用此為現狀。In the case of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal, even if it is an alkoxide, the initial hydrolysis reaction is very fast because it becomes alkaline. On the other hand, the dehydration polycondensation reaction is relatively slow, making it difficult to obtain an organometallic oxide. However, since the intermediate property is a silanoxide, it is the current state that it can only be used in organometallic oxide synthesis or organometallic oxide thin film formation by the sol-gel method.
相對於此,將金屬烷氧化物溶解於過剩醇(A)時,由化學平衡來看金屬的烷氧化物會被取代為醇(A),而生成該醇(A)之金屬烷氧化物,但此時,將醇(A)作為以氟原子取代的醇時,所生成的金屬氟化烷氧基化合物(以下亦稱為「金屬氟化烷氧化物」)可使前述溶膠・凝膠反應速度緩和。On the other hand, when metal alkoxide is dissolved in excess alcohol (A), the metal alkoxide will be replaced with alcohol (A) from the chemical equilibrium, and the metal alkoxide of alcohol (A) will be generated. However, in this case, when alcohol (A) is used as an alcohol substituted with a fluorine atom, the produced metal fluorinated alkoxy compound (hereinafter also referred to as "metal fluorinated alkoxide") can react with the aforementioned sol/gel The speed slows down.
此雖為藉由氟原子的電子吸引效果而降低金屬元素上的電子密度而加速水分子的求核反應者,但藉由氟原子的水之排除效果更大,因水分子不會接近金屬元素,故所謂的頻度因子會大大降低,作為結果,水解速度會變慢,例如,鈦或鋯,進一步為存在空d軌道的過渡金屬(例如4價釩或4價鎢等)之烷氧化物化合物為路易氏酸,故可表現酸觸媒的效果,因加入脫水聚縮合或脫醇聚縮合反應,而為具有容易生成高分子量之有機金屬氧化物的特長者。Although this is the one that accelerates the nuclear reaction of water molecules by reducing the electron density on the metal element by the electron attracting effect of fluorine atoms, the water removal effect by the fluorine atom is greater because water molecules will not approach the metal element. Therefore, the so-called frequency factor will be greatly reduced. As a result, the hydrolysis rate will be slower. For example, titanium or zirconium, and further alkoxide compounds of transition metals with empty d orbitals (such as tetravalent vanadium or tetravalent tungsten) are Lewis acid can exhibit the effect of an acid catalyst. It is easy to generate high molecular weight organometallic oxide due to the addition of dehydration polycondensation or dealcoholization polycondensation reaction.
藉此該效果,可滿足前述(I)具有與水分子進行反應的乾燥性者、(II)作為與水反應的功能,具有釋放不接近水的性質之物質者,及(III)可在大氣壓下塗布成膜者等全部,特別在(III)所記載的要件,對於一般的金屬烷氧化物藉由進行凝膠化的處理在實質上並未能達成者,卻可在氟化醇的存在下,使其成為可能,對於所形成的構成層施予紫外線或電漿照射、微波照射等高能量後,於薄膜表面上形成連續性高密度的有機金屬氧化物膜,結果該薄膜具有(I)之乾燥性,且因未反應的金屬氟化烷氧化物會殘存於內部,故進入的水分子會與此進行反應,可發揮生成排斥水的氟化醇的(II)之效果,作為結果,形成同時具有(I)與(II)之效果的新穎薄膜成為可能。With this effect, it is possible to satisfy the requirements of (I) those with drying properties that react with water molecules, (II) those with the function of reacting with water, those with properties that release substances that are not close to water, and (III) those capable of working at atmospheric pressure In particular, the requirements described in (III) can not be achieved substantially by the gelation treatment of general metal alkoxides. However, it can be used in the presence of fluorinated alcohols. In order to make it possible to apply high energy such as ultraviolet rays, plasma irradiation, microwave irradiation to the formed constituent layer, a continuous and high-density organometal oxide film is formed on the surface of the film. As a result, the film has (I ) Is dry, and because the unreacted metal fluorinated alkoxide will remain inside, the ingressed water molecules will react with it, and the effect of (II) generating fluorinated alcohol that repels water can be exerted, as a result , It becomes possible to form a novel film with both (I) and (II) effects.
又,以氟化醇取代的金屬烷氧化物中,異種金屬烷氧化物彼此反應或鹽形成亦因藉由氟原子之排除效果而使頻度因子降低,故可有效果地抑制,亦可將2種或複數種的金屬烷氧化物作為金屬氟化烷氧化物而於溶液中共存,由該溶液所得之薄膜亦可賦予混合無機氧化物薄膜。In addition, in the metal alkoxides substituted with fluorinated alcohols, dissimilar metal alkoxides react with each other or form a salt because the frequency factor is reduced due to the elimination effect of fluorine atoms, so it can be effectively suppressed, and 2 One or more kinds of metal alkoxides coexist as metal fluorinated alkoxides in the solution, and the thin film obtained from the solution can also be given to the mixed inorganic oxide thin film.
例如,對於通常會成為路易氏酸/路易斯鹼對而凝膠化的鈦四異丙氧化物與鋇二丁氧化物,即使將各自以大量過剩的四氟丙醇(TFPO)進行稀釋後混合亦不會引起凝膠化,可直接進行塗布並經溶膠・凝膠法而形成薄膜,將該薄膜以紫外線等高能量照射下,亦可形成混合有機金屬氧化物皮膜。For example, for titanium tetraisopropoxide and barium dibutoxide, which usually become a Lewis acid/Lewis base pair and gelled, even if each is diluted with a large excess of tetrafluoropropanol (TFPO) and mixed It does not cause gelation, and can be directly coated and formed into a thin film by the sol/gel method. The thin film can be irradiated with high energy such as ultraviolet rays to form a mixed organic metal oxide film.
進一步本發明可藉由溶膠・凝膠法(以下亦稱為「溶膠・凝膠反應」)製造出有機金屬氧化物。Furthermore, in the present invention, organometallic oxides can be produced by the sol-gel method (hereinafter also referred to as "sol-gel reaction").
如前述,藉由使用使溶膠・凝膠反應速度變緩和的金屬烷氧化物溶液,可將溶液穩定性之提高及成膜時的處理性變得容易。另一方面,雖由形成的膜形成高密度的有機金屬酸化膜時變得需要高能量,但因藉由氧分子或氮分子被吸收,故有溶膠・凝膠反應留置於膜表面,而不會進行至內部的情況等問題。As mentioned above, by using a metal alkoxide solution that slows the sol-gel reaction rate, the stability of the solution and the handling during film formation can be improved. On the other hand, although high energy is required to form a high-density organometallic acidified film from the formed film, oxygen molecules or nitrogen molecules are absorbed, so sol-gel reaction remains on the surface of the film instead of Will progress to internal issues and other issues.
相對於此,在本發明中,藉由進行金屬烷氧化物的溶膠・凝膠反應,解決膜形成前後之相反課題者為本發明之特徵。In contrast, in the present invention, it is a feature of the present invention to solve the opposite problems before and after the film formation by performing the sol-gel reaction of the metal alkoxide.
即,有關本發明的有機金屬氧化物,並非僅停留在欲得到生成撥水性或疏水性化合物的吸濕功能之組成物,可使過去難以共存的複數種金屬烷氧化物在穩定下存在,作為該結果所得之混合有機金屬氧化物薄膜本身亦在此範圍中。此在過去似乎可實現,但實際上其為並未能實現的技術,欲使其實現,對於各式各樣的適用領域中,期待可發揮至今未有的功能,故本發明對產業界有著非常大的好影響。In other words, the organometallic oxide of the present invention does not only remain in the composition to obtain the moisture absorption function of generating water-repellent or hydrophobic compounds, but can make it possible to stably exist in a plurality of metal alkoxides that were difficult to coexist in the past. The resultant mixed organometal oxide film itself is also within this range. This seems to be achievable in the past, but in fact it is a technology that has not been achieved.

(形態B:量子點構成)適用於有關本發明之彩色濾光器的形態B之量子點,其為以半導體結晶所構成,且具有表現量子點效果之所定粒徑的粒子狀之材料。量子點的能量準位E,在一般狀況下,將普朗克的常數以「h」表示,將電子的有效質量以「m」表示,將微粒子之半徑以「R」表示時,如下式(I)所示。(Form B: Quantum dot composition)The quantum dots of form B suitable for the color filter of the present invention are made of semiconductor crystals and have a particle-like material with a predetermined particle size that exhibits the effect of quantum dots. For the energy level E of quantum dots, under normal conditions, Planck’s constant is represented by "h", the effective mass of electrons is represented by "m", and the radius of the particle is represented by "R", as follows ( I) shown.
如式(I)所示,量子點之帶間隙為,對於「R-2」之比例變大,而得到量子點效果。如此,藉由控制及規定量子點之粒子徑,可控制量子點之帶間隙值。即,藉由控制及規定量子點之粒子的粒子徑,可其具有通常分子中未具有的多樣性。因此,藉由經光使其激起,對於含有量子點的有機EL元件輸入電壓,於量子點封閉電子與洞而使其再結合後,可將電能量變換為所望波長之光而射出。在有關本發明之彩色濾光器中,將表現如此量子點效果之粒子狀材料作為量子點使用。As shown in formula (I), the band gap of quantum dots is such that the ratio of "R-2 "becomes larger, and the quantum dot effect is obtained. In this way, by controlling and specifying the particle diameter of the quantum dot, the band gap value of the quantum dot can be controlled. That is, by controlling and regulating the particle diameter of the particles of quantum dots, it is possible to have diversity not found in ordinary molecules. Therefore, by being excited by light, a voltage is input to an organic EL device containing quantum dots, and after the quantum dots confine the electrons and holes and recombine them, the electric energy can be converted into light of a desired wavelength and emitted. In the color filter of the present invention, a particulate material exhibiting such a quantum dot effect is used as a quantum dot.
量子點之粒子徑為對應所望發光光線譜的適宜值,其為較佳1~20nm之範圍內,更佳為1~10nm之範圍內。具體而言,量子點之粒子徑在將發光色設定為紅色時,設定在3.0~20nm之範圍內,將發光色設定在綠色時,設定在1.5~10nm之範圍內。且,如此粒子徑之範圍若為量子點之平均粒子徑含於此等範圍者即可。The particle diameter of the quantum dot is an appropriate value corresponding to the desired luminescence light spectrum, which is preferably in the range of 1-20 nm, more preferably in the range of 1-10 nm. Specifically, the particle diameter of the quantum dots is set within the range of 3.0-20 nm when the emission color is set to red, and within the range of 1.5-10 nm when the emission color is set to green. In addition, the range of such particle diameters is only necessary if the average particle diameter of the quantum dots is included in these ranges.
量子點之平均粒子徑可利用公知測定方法而進行測定。例如可舉出藉由透過型電子顯微鏡(TEM)進行量子點材料之粒子觀察,由此可藉由粒子徑分布求得數平均粒子徑之方法,或藉由動態光散射法之粒徑測定裝置,例如使用「ZETASIZER Nano Series Nano-ZS」(Malvern公司製)進行測定之方法,或由藉由X線小角散射法而得之光譜使用量子點之粒子徑分布模擬計算而導出粒子徑分布之方法等。The average particle diameter of the quantum dot can be measured by a known measurement method. For example, a method of observing the particles of quantum dot materials by a transmission electron microscope (TEM), which can obtain the number average particle diameter from the particle diameter distribution, or a particle size measuring device by the dynamic light scattering method For example, a method of measuring using "ZETASIZER Nano Series Nano-ZS" (manufactured by Malvern), or a method of deriving particle diameter distribution from the spectrum obtained by the small-angle X-ray scattering method using quantum dot particle diameter distribution simulation calculations Wait.
量子點之添加量,對於所要添加之彩色濾光器的全構成物質100質量份而言,以0.01~50質量份之範圍內者為佳,以0.05~25質量份之範圍內者為佳,以0.1~20質量份之範圍內者為特佳。若量子點之添加量為0.01質量份以上時,將發光層之摻合物材料的發光作為適宜的波長,藉由調節量子點材料之吸收能量,可得到顯著量子點效果,可容易穩定取出之光亮度或色度。又,量子點之添加量若為50質量份以下時,可充分地確保經分散的量子點之粒子間距離,故可確實地發揮藉由經添加的量子點之量子點效果。The amount of quantum dots to be added is preferably within the range of 0.01-50 parts by mass, preferably within the range of 0.05-25 parts by mass, with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total constituent material of the color filter to be added. It is particularly preferable that it is within the range of 0.1-20 parts by mass. If the added amount of quantum dots is 0.01 parts by mass or more, the light emission of the blend material of the light-emitting layer is taken as the appropriate wavelength.

[彩色濾光器單元之形成方法]對於由有關本發明的上述說明之第2基材17、彩色濾光器層18及平坦化層19所構成的彩色濾光器單元16之形成方法做說明。[Method of forming color filter unit]The method of forming the color filter unit 16 composed of the
彩色濾光器單元16如圖1及圖2所示,對於在後述TFT形成步驟或有機EL裝置形成步驟所使用的第1基材2,在其之對面位置上配置第2基材17。於該第2基材17上,作為有關本發明之彩色濾光器層18,將射出紅・綠・藍之特定波長區域的光之複數種彩色濾光器,使用含有顯示這些顏色的著色材料(著色劑或量子點)之感光性樹脂材料,以濕式塗布法等配置形成為短冊狀。As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the color filter unit 16 has a
各彩色濾光器之厚度為,依據所選擇的種類或空腔結構之形成的有無而可進行適宜設定,通常形成為0.5~2μm之範圍內的厚度。雖可具有與鄰接各色彩色濾光器部分性重疊的部分,但以形成使用感光性聚醯亞胺等的隔壁層為佳,欲使各色濾器進行分離下形成紅・綠・藍之彩色濾光器。隔壁層或彩色濾光器可為正形態或負形態任一種。隔壁層可藉由所關連的彩色濾光器之厚度進行調整,亦可形成0.5~5μm之範圍內的厚度。特別為在紅・綠・藍之彩色濾光器的膜厚為相異時,使用隔壁時更可以抑制端部的厚度所引起的透過率變動,故適用此為佳。The thickness of each color filter can be appropriately set according to the selected type or the presence or absence of the cavity structure, and it is usually formed to a thickness in the range of 0.5-2 μm. Although it may have a part that overlaps with the adjacent color filters of each color, it is better to form a partition layer using photosensitive polyimide, etc., and to separate the color filters to form a red, green, and blue color filter Device. The barrier layer or the color filter may be in either a positive form or a negative form. The barrier layer can be adjusted by the thickness of the color filter to which it is connected, and can also be formed to have a thickness in the range of 0.5-5 μm. Especially when the film thicknesses of the red, green, and blue color filters are different, it is better to apply this because it is better to suppress the change in the transmittance caused by the thickness of the end when the partition wall is used.
其次,於形成紅・綠・藍之彩色濾光器(CFR、CFG、CFB)後,欲進行平坦化處理,形成平坦化層19。平坦化層19對於鄰接層的第2接著層15必須具有充分的密著性,且使用於平坦化處理上。Next, after forming the red, green, and blue color filters (CFR , CFG , and CFB ), a planarization process is to be performed to form a

以下對於噴墨印刷法之概要做說明。The outline of the inkjet printing method is explained below.
對於有關本發明之彩色濾光器單元的形成,以至少於彩色濾光器層的形成上使用噴墨印刷法者為特佳。Regarding the formation of the color filter unit of the present invention, it is particularly preferable to use an inkjet printing method for the formation of the color filter layer.
以下對於使用於噴墨印刷法的噴墨頭、水墨液滴之射出條件、噴墨記錄方法與記錄裝置及具體面發光面板之噴墨印刷法的製造程序,附上圖式說明。The following is a description of the inkjet head used in the inkjet printing method, the ejection conditions of the ink droplets, the inkjet recording method and the recording device, and the manufacturing process of the inkjet printing method of the specific surface-emitting panel.
<噴墨頭>作為使用於噴墨印刷法的噴墨頭,可為按需方法亦可為連續性方法。又,作為吐出方式,可將電氣-機械變換方式(例如單腔型、雙腔型、彎管機類型、活塞型、分享模式型、共享壁型等)、電-熱變換方式(例如,熱噴墨型、泡沫噴射(註冊商標)型等)、靜電吸引方式(例如,電場控制型、狹縫噴射型等)、放電方式(例如火花噴射型等)等作為具體例子而舉出,但所有吐出方式皆可使用。又,作為印字方式,可無限制下使用串行頭方式、線頭方式等。<Inkjet head>The inkjet head used in the inkjet printing method may be an on-demand method or a continuous method.

In addition, as a printing method, a serial head method, a thread head method, etc. can be used without limitation.
<墨液滴尺寸>對於彩色濾光器層之形成,自噴墨頭所射出的墨液滴之體積以設定為0.5~100pL之範圍內者為佳。以彩色濾光器層之塗布不均為少,且可使印字速度高速化的觀點來看,其為2~20pL之範圍者為較佳。且,墨液滴之體積可藉由外加電壓之調整等,適宜地調整至所望條件。<Ink droplet size>For the formation of the color filter layer, the volume of the ink droplets emitted from the inkjet head is preferably set to be in the range of 0.5-100 pL. From the viewpoint that the coating unevenness of the color filter layer is small and the printing speed can be increased, it is preferably in the range of 2 to 20 pL. In addition, the volume of the ink droplets can be appropriately adjusted to desired conditions by adjusting the applied voltage.
<印字方法>對於藉由噴墨印刷法之印字方法,有一遍打印方法與多遍打印方法。一遍打印方法為於所定印字區域上固定配置複數個噴墨頭,以1次頭部掃描方式進行印字的方法。相對於此,多遍打印方法(亦稱為串行打印方法)為將所定印字區域以複數次的頭部掃描進行印字的方法。<Printing method>For the printing method by the inkjet printing method, there is a one-pass printing method and a multi-pass printing method. The one-pass printing method is a method in which a plurality of inkjet heads are fixedly arranged on a predetermined printing area, and printing is performed by a head scan method. In contrast, the multi-pass printing method (also referred to as the serial printing method) is a method of printing a predetermined printing area by scanning the head in multiple times.
在一遍打印方法中,在作為所望的塗布圖型之寬度以上的寬度下,使用並列噴嘴的廣寬噴頭者為佳。於同一基材上,形成彼此圖型未連續的獨立複數塗布圖型時,至少使用各塗布圖型的寬度以上的廣寬噴頭即可。In the one-pass printing method, it is better to use a wide nozzle with parallel nozzles at a width greater than the width of the desired coating pattern. When forming a plurality of independent coating patterns that are not continuous with each other on the same substrate, at least a wide nozzle with a width of at least the width of each coating pattern may be used.

By transporting holes while blocking electrons, the probability of recombination of electrons and holes can be improved.

有關本發明的各阻擋層,例如可藉由含有真空蒸鍍法、旋轉塗布法、澆鑄法、噴墨印刷法之印刷法及LB法等公知方法,使其薄膜化而形成,但對於本發明之圖像顯示構件之製造方法,於所形成的隔壁(bank)內使用濕式塗布法而形成阻擋層的方法為佳,以濕式塗布法為噴墨印刷法者為更佳。Each barrier layer of the present invention can be formed by thinning it into a thin film by a known method including a vacuum vapor deposition method, spin coating method, casting method, inkjet printing method, and LB method.

[密封構件]其次,對於構成本發明之發光裝置的密封構件做說明。[Sealing member]Next, the sealing member constituting the light emitting device of the present invention will be described.
在圖1及圖2所示第1密封層9及第2密封層10中,發光層因藉由水分會形成暗點或收縮等非發光部,故使用於阻斷水分或氧的功能層。發光層為藉由底部發光型(Bottom emission type)或頂部發光型(Top emission type),於密封構件所要求的透過率等光學特性會起變化。In the
通常作為密封層之性能,水蒸氣透過度(環境條件:25±0.5℃、相對濕度(90±2)%RH)約0.01g/(m2・day) 以下,氧透過度約0.01cm3/(m2・day・atm)以下,電阻率為1×1012Ω・cm以上,具有氣體阻隔性的透明絕緣膜者為佳。特別以氧透過度成為0.0001cm3/(m2・day・atm)以下之值,且水蒸氣透過度成為約0.0001g/(m2・day)以下的值之高阻隔性多層膜所構成者為佳。且,所謂「水蒸氣透過度」為,依據JIS(日本工業規格)-K7129(1992年),藉由紅外傳感器法所測定的值,所謂「氧透過度」表示依據JIS-K7126 (1987年)藉由庫侖分析法所測定的值。Generally used as the performance of the sealing layer, the water vapor permeability (environmental conditions: 25±0.5℃, relative humidity (90±2)%RH) is below 0.01g/(m2 ・day), and the oxygen permeability is about 0.01cm3 / (m2 ・day・atm) or less, a resistivity of 1×1012 Ω・cm or more, and a transparent insulating film with gas barrier properties is preferred. In particular, it is composed of a high-barrier multilayer film whose oxygen permeability is less than 0.0001cm3 /(m2 ・day・atm) and water vapor transmission is less than about 0.0001g/(m2 ・day) Better. In addition, the so-called "water vapor permeability" is a value measured by infrared sensor method in accordance with JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards)-K7129 (1992), and the so-called "oxygen permeability" means a value in accordance with JIS-K7126 (1987) The value determined by coulometric analysis.
作為上述密封層的形成材料,對於導致有機發光層的劣化之例如水或氧等氣體,可抑制其對有機發光層的浸入之材料即可,可使用任意材料。As a material for the formation of the above-mentioned sealing layer, any material may be used that can inhibit gas such as water or oxygen that causes deterioration of the organic light-emitting layer into the organic light-emitting layer.
例如,作為第1密封層之構成,例如可由氧化矽、氮化矽、氮氧化矽、碳化矽、碳氧化矽、氧化鋁、氮化鋁、氧化鈦、氧化鋯、氧化鈮、氧化鉬等無機材料所成的被膜所構成。對於有機發光層,考慮到氣體阻隔性或透明性、分割時的割斷性等,以密封層由將氮化矽或氧化矽等矽化合物作為主原料的無機材料被膜所構成者為佳。For example, as the composition of the first sealing layer, for example, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, silicon carbide, silicon oxycarbide, aluminum oxide, aluminum nitride, titanium oxide, zirconium oxide, niobium oxide, molybdenum oxide and other inorganic The material is made of a film. For the organic light-emitting layer, in consideration of gas barrier properties, transparency, and severability during division, the sealing layer is preferably composed of an inorganic material film mainly composed of silicon compounds such as silicon nitride or silicon oxide.
且,欲改良密封層之脆弱性,不僅為上述無機材料被膜,可為由與有機材料的複合材料所成的被膜,或亦可為合併層合這些被膜的混合(Hybrid)被膜而構成。此時,由無機材料所成的無機層,及由有機材料所成的有機層之層合順序可為任意,但對於作為有機層/無機層的構成,亦可為將有機層及無機層以交互方式進行複數層合的構成。Moreover, to improve the fragility of the sealing layer, not only the above-mentioned inorganic material film, but also a film made of a composite material with an organic material, or a hybrid film obtained by laminating these films together. At this time, the order of the lamination of the inorganic layer made of inorganic materials and the organic layer made of organic materials can be arbitrary, but for the composition as an organic layer/inorganic layer, the organic layer and the inorganic layer may be The structure of multiple layers is performed interactively.
藉此,可得到具有可迴避有機發光層因水分或氧所造成的損傷之良好阻隔功能的密封層。Thereby, it is possible to obtain a sealing layer with a good barrier function that can avoid damage to the organic light-emitting layer due to moisture or oxygen.
作為圖1及圖2所示第2密封層10,於上述第1密封層9的上層,可進一步設置可施予阻斷水分的第2密封層10。特別在底部發光型(Bottom emission type)之有機EL面板的情況,因於與光的射出方向呈對向的位置上設置有具備防濕性的彩色濾光器層,故形成不需要考慮到金屬箔(例如ALPET等)等光學特性之構成的第2密封層10者為佳。又,金屬層可舉出鋁箔、杜拉鋁(duralumin)箔、鈦箔、銅箔、磷青銅箔、SUS304箔、殷鋼箔、鎂合金箔,又可舉出此等混合箔等。通常這些金屬箔若過薄時有著針孔等缺陷,故使其變厚時可防止這些密封缺陷。較佳的厚度為5~50μm之範圍內,而使準備除去金屬箔的針孔或缺陷的箔片成為可能。As the

《偏光板》有機EL元件為由於電極的功函數,且因有效率地將發光的光子輸出於外部,特別為在底部發光型(Bottom emission type)之有機EL元件,於第2電極使用Al或Ag或合金、層壓等金屬材料者為多,又對於頂部發光型(Top emission type),於陽極的ITO等下層形成TFT時,欲使光子可有效率地輸出於外部而形成反射電極。因此,有機EL面板形成時,因會有外光反射,故貼上圓偏光板,使外光反射消失,表現非發光部之黑色為一般情況。對於本發明之顯示裝置,於彩色濾光器單元16的外側上貼合圓偏光板20,進行黑色顯示。"Polarizer"The organic EL element is due to the work function of the electrode, and because it efficiently outputs the light-emitting photons to the outside, especially in the bottom emission type (bottom emission type) organic EL element, the second electrode uses Al, Ag or alloy, There are many metal materials such as laminates. For the top emission type (Top emission type), when forming a TFT underneath the anode, such as ITO, it is necessary to efficiently output photons to the outside to form a reflective electrode. Therefore, when the organic EL panel is formed, external light will be reflected, so a circular polarizing plate is attached to make the external light reflection disappear, and it is normal to express the black of the non-light emitting part. For the display device of the present invention, the
圓偏光板僅含有λ/4板放入即可,可為液晶形態或薄膜形態,並非受到限定者。圓偏光板為藉由光學接著劑而貼合於彩色濾光器單元。The circularly polarizing plate only needs to contain a λ/4 plate and can be in the form of liquid crystal or film, and it is not limited. The circular polarizing plate is attached to the color filter unit through an optical adhesive.

又,在頂部發光型(Top emission type)等,將密封層以CVD法等形成後,可直接將彩色濾光器單元形成於密封層正上面。此時,於密封層上層,將彩色濾光器層例如以噴墨法進行製圖塗布,其後以旋轉法或噴墨法等形成有關本發明之平坦化層後,形成彩色濾光器單元。此時,因無須藉由熱硬化接著劑,故可容易判斷出可預測到信賴性的進一步提高。In addition, in the top emission type, etc., after the sealing layer is formed by a CVD method or the like, the color filter unit can be formed directly on the sealing layer. At this time, on the top layer of the sealing layer, the color filter layer is pattern-coated by, for example, the inkjet method, and then the planarization layer according to the present invention is formed by the spin method or the inkjet method, and then the color filter unit is formed. In this case, since there is no need to use a thermosetting adhesive, it can be easily judged that the reliability can be further improved.

且,發光亮度的測定為使用分光放射亮度計CS2000(Konica Minolta公司製)而進行。In addition, the measurement of emission brightness was performed using a spectroradiometer CS2000 (manufactured by Konica Minolta).

◎:初期亮度值與通常設計值比較為+10%以上之亮度值○:初期亮度值與通常設計值比較為+5%以上且未達+10%之亮度值-:初期亮度值與通常設計值比較為300cd/m2以上且未達+5%之亮度值×:初期亮度值與通常設計值比較為未達300cd/m2之亮度值[耐光性之評估]耐光性試驗為,在試樣數3(n=3)下,依據以JIS D 0205為準的方法,在黑色面板溫度65℃,且55%RH之環境下進行碳弧試驗,藉由UV光照射使自彩色濾光器單元的水分擴散下,會對發光元件造成損傷,故目視觀察發光時的發光不均或亮點、滅點、暗點之有無等,依據下述基準進行耐光性之評估。◎: The initial brightness value is more than +10% brightness value compared with the normal design value ○: The initial brightness value is more than +5% and less than +10% brightness value compared with the normal design value -: The initial brightness value is compared with the normal design value The value comparison is 300cd/m2 or more and less than +5% brightness value×: The initial brightness value is less than 300cd/m2 brightness value compared with the usual design value [Evaluation of light resistance] The light resistance test is under test With sample number 3 (n=3), the carbon arc test is carried out in an environment with a black panel temperature of 65°C and 55% RH according to JIS D 0205, and the self-color filter is irradiated by UV light The diffusion of moisture in the cell will cause damage to the light-emitting element. Therefore, visually observe the uneven light emission or the presence or absence of bright spots, dark spots, and dark spots during light emission, and evaluate the light resistance based on the following criteria.
◎:在所有n=3中,完全未確認到所有發光不均、亮點、暗點之產生○:在n=2中,完全未確認到所有發光不均、亮點、暗點之產生△:在n=2中,對於發光不均、亮點、暗點之中,稍微確認到其中1項目的產生,但在實用上沒有問題×:在n=1以上之試樣,對於發光不均、亮點、暗點之中,強烈確認到2個以上項目的產生,在實用上有問題[高溫高濕耐性之評估]將各顯示裝置,在試樣數3(n=3),且在60℃且90%RH之高溫高濕環境下放置500小時後,以目視觀察發光時之發光不均或亮點、滅點、暗點之有無等,依據下述基準,進行高溫高濕耐性之評估。◎: In all n=3, the occurrence of uneven light emission, bright spots and dark spots has not been confirmed at all○: In n=2, no uneven light emission, bright spots, and dark spots have been confirmed at all△: In n=2, among the uneven luminescence, bright spots, and dark spots, the occurrence of one of them is slightly confirmed, but there is no practical problem×: For samples with n=1 or more, the occurrence of two or more items among uneven luminescence, bright spots, and dark spots is strongly confirmed, which is problematic in practice[Evaluation of resistance to high temperature and humidity]After placing each display device in a sample number of 3 (n=3), and placed in a high temperature and high humidity environment of 60°C and 90%RH for 500 hours, visually observe the uneven luminescence, bright spots, vanishing spots, and The presence or absence of dark spots is evaluated based on the following criteria for high temperature and high humidity resistance.
◎:在所有n=3中,完全未確認到所有發光不均、亮點、暗點之產生○:在n=2中,完全未確認到所有發光不均、亮點、暗點之產生△:在n=2中,對於發光不均、亮點、暗點之中,稍微確認到其中1項目的產生,但在實用上沒有問題×:在n=1以上之試樣,對於發光不均、亮點、暗點之中,強烈確認到2個以上項目的產生,在實用上有問題將由以上所得之結果表示於表I。◎: In all n=3, the occurrence of uneven light emission, bright spots and dark spots has not been confirmed at all○: In n=2, no uneven light emission, bright spots, and dark spots have been confirmed at all△: In n=2, among the uneven luminescence, bright spots, and dark spots, the occurrence of one of them is slightly confirmed, but there is no practical problem×: For samples with n=1 or more, the occurrence of two or more items among uneven luminescence, bright spots, and dark spots is strongly confirmed, which is problematic in practiceThe results obtained from the above are shown in Table 1.
由表I所記載的結果得知,對於作為顯示裝置的有關基本品質之初期發光特性,任一顯示元件皆無問題。From the results described in Table I, it is known that there is no problem with any display element regarding the initial light-emitting characteristics related to the basic quality of the display device.
又,得知以初期亮度作為代表的亮度提高為,對於比較品之顯示裝置7,本發明之顯示裝置1~5中任一者的初期亮度為高,可藉由高折射率來提高光提取效率。又,亦可確認對於液晶顯示裝置形態之顯示裝置6,對於作為比較的顯示裝置8,可確認到亮度提高,且由對比的觀點來看,亦可得到1.1倍以上之對比。In addition, it is known that the brightness improvement represented by the initial brightness is that for the
又,對於本評估,雖未進行作為顯示裝置之壽命試驗的實施,但亦可理解因提高光提取效率時,在相同亮度下的發光元件之壽命本身亦可提高。In addition, for this evaluation, although the implementation of the life test as a display device was not carried out, it can be understood that when the light extraction efficiency is improved, the life of the light-emitting element under the same brightness can also be improved.
在耐光性之評估中,在比較例之顯示裝置7中會產生暗點,此推測為對於阻隔密封具有缺陷,因由同部位會有水分侵入而產生DS。對於顯示裝置7,作為暗點產生率,發光面積與DS面積比率約2%程度,故得知產生同程度的缺陷。過去的彩色濾光器或過去的平坦化膜為含有大量水分,藉由耐光性試驗而釋出該水分,經由同缺陷將水分擴展到發光元件。又,在液晶顯示方式之顯示裝置8,確認到收縮及暗點之產生。In the evaluation of light resistance, dark spots were generated in the
雖在本實施例無記載,對於頂部發光型(Top emission type)亦相同,缺陷原因主要為由外來附著物所成的異物之情況為多,無論基板還是密封皆為大概相同的產生率,推測最近的密封技術的TFE亦具有同樣缺陷產生率。因此,可推測發光方式無論為底部發射還是頂部發射,藉由同樣缺陷所引起的水分所造成的品質不良,可藉由分子轉換所產生之水分子的捕集功能予以改善。Although there is no description in this example, it is the same for the top emission type. The defect is mainly caused by foreign matter formed by foreign matter. The generation rate of both the substrate and the seal is approximately the same. The latest sealing technology TFE also has the same defect generation rate. Therefore, it can be inferred that whether the light emission method is bottom emission or top emission, the poor quality caused by the moisture caused by the same defect can be improved by the trapping function of water molecules generated by molecular conversion.
其次作為彩色濾光器單元所保持的水分引起的強制損傷評估,實施在60℃之90%RH的高溫高濕試驗,本評估中,在比較例之顯示裝置6中產生暗點。具體為在顯示裝置6,將試樣數設定為3時,對於所有試樣,在面內約3%前後之面積產生暗點。Next, as a forced damage evaluation caused by moisture retained in the color filter unit, a high temperature and high humidity test at 60° C. and 90% RH was performed. In this evaluation, dark spots were generated in the
同樣地,在顯示裝置7中產生收縮,推測為自彩色濾光器亦有水分傳送,自光學接著劑或彩色濾光器的平坦化膜之面板端部會有水分浸透,未被水分過飽和的彩色濾光器捕集到,水分往基板方向擴散而產生收縮。Similarly, shrinkage occurs in the
相對於此,得知使用由在本發明規定的構成所成的彩色濾光器單元之顯示裝置1~5(有機EL面板)中,因彩色濾光器或平坦化膜會吸收水分,水分不會到達發光層,進而得到不會產生收縮的有機EL面板。又,對於光提取效率,亦可比比較例更提高亮度,並可控制折射率。On the other hand, it is known that in the
對於本發明之顯示裝置,自彩色濾光器層所產生的水分可考慮為1000ppm以上之水分,含有具有一般式(1)所示結構的有機金屬氧化物之彩色濾光器層或平坦化層進行分子變換,吸收水分子,故考慮到防止對有機發光層之水分浸透成為可能。For the display device of the present invention, the moisture generated from the color filter layer can be considered to be 1000 ppm or more moisture, and the color filter layer or the planarization layer containing the organometallic oxide having the structure represented by the general formula (1) It performs molecular transformation and absorbs water molecules, so it is possible to prevent the penetration of water into the organic light-emitting layer.
又,對於顯示裝置3,可確認適用量子點,對於具有含有一般式(1)所示結構之有機金屬氧化物的彩色濾光器層,亦可顯示製作出具有分子變換功能的彩色濾光器層,藉此即使使用耐水性劣位的量子點之彩色濾光器材料,亦可抑制劣化,可製造出品質提高的彩色濾光器單元。In addition, for the
又,對於上述實施例,對於主要使用有機EL面板及液晶顯示裝置進行評估檢證,得知對於其他方式的顯示裝置,特別對於使用有機材料的電子裝置亦可得到相同的效果,例如得知對於QD-OLED或QLED、使用OTFT的電子裝置、使用微膠囊的電子紙或電子裝置、使用彩色濾光器的微型LED等亦有效。[產業上可利用性]In addition, for the above-mentioned embodiments, the evaluation and verification of organic EL panels and liquid crystal display devices are performed, and it is known that the same effects can be obtained for other display devices, especially for electronic devices using organic materials. QD-OLED or QLED, electronic devices using OTFT, electronic paper or electronic devices using microcapsules, and micro LEDs using color filters are also effective.[Industrial availability]
