Solution Overview

Problem

Current OLED display manufacturing processes are complex and costly, with low color conversion efficiency due to mismatched electroluminescent and absorption spectra between blue OLED devices and color conversion films, leading to poor display quality.

Innovation Solution

An OLED display substrate with a first blue OLED light-emitting layer and additional blue OLED light-emitting layers, each emitting different wavelengths of blue light, combined with a quantum-dot color film layer that excites these emissions to produce red, green, and blue colors, simplifying the manufacturing process and improving color conversion efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If traditional OLED manufacturing processes are used with color conversion films, then full-color display is achieved, but the electroluminescent and absorption spectra are mismatched resulting in low color conversion efficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing process simplicityVSAvoidcolor conversion efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The blue OLED light-emitting layer is divided into multiple sub-layers, each emitting blue light at different wavelengths. This segmentation allows the electroluminescent spectrum to be divided into multiple bands that can better match the absorption spectra of different quantum dot layers, thereby improving color conversion efficiency while maintaining manufacturing simplicity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different regions of the OLED structure emit blue light at different wavelengths (e.g., first blue light-emitting layer emits at 450-480nm, second blue light-emitting layer emits at 420-450nm). This local quality variation enables each region to excite specific quantum dot layers optimally, improving overall color conversion efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Manufacturing precision

If multiple color OLED light-emitting layers are used to achieve full-color display, then display quality improves, but device complexity and manufacturing cost increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay qualityVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Multiple blue OLED light-emitting layers serve universal functions: they all emit blue light to excite quantum dots, but each layer contributes to different color channels through wavelength-specific excitation. This multi-functionality approach achieves full-color display capability while maintaining a unified blue OLED-based structure, reducing device complexity compared to using separate red, green, and blue OLED layers

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

Quantum dot color conversion layers act as intermediaries that convert blue light from multiple OLED layers into full-color output. The quantum dots absorb specific wavelengths of blue light and emit corresponding colors (red, green, blue), enabling full-color display without requiring multiple color OLED light-emitting layers

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
