Definitions
- the present invention relates to an organic electroluminescence lighting device using an organic light emitting film as a light source and a method for manufacturing the lighting device.
- an organic electroluminescence lighting device using an organic light emitting film as a light source is known.
- an organic light emitting film is sandwiched between a transparent anode film and a cathode film, and emits light when an electric field is generated between the electrodes. The light is irradiated to the outside through the anode film.
- a transparent conductive material such as ITO (Indium Tin ⁇ Oxide), ZnO, or SnO2 (nesa glass) is used.
- the transparent conductive material (or transparent metal oxide) described above has a relatively large electrical resistivity ⁇ ( ⁇ ⁇ m).
- the anode film is generally fed from both ends thereof. Therefore, the wiring resistance increases as the distance from both ends increases. As the wiring resistance increases, the voltage drop also increases, so that the voltage is not uniformly applied to the entire organic light emitting film. Since the brightness of the organic light emitting film depends on the voltage, the brightness of the organic light emitting film may become non-uniform if the voltage is not evenly applied to the organic light emitting film.
- a technique is known in which an auxiliary electrode film having a resistance lower than that of the anode film is formed on the surface of the anode film in a lattice shape (see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-14128).
- FIG. 1A is a top view of an organic electroluminescence lighting device 100 related to the present invention.
- 1B is a cross-sectional view taken along a cutting line AA shown in FIG. 1A
- FIG. 1C is a cross-sectional view taken along a cutting line BB shown in FIG. 1A.
- FIG. 1A shows a state in which the inside of the organic electroluminescence lighting device 100 is seen through.
- 1B and 1C show a state in which the organic light-emitting film 114 and the electrode film 115 are separated from the organic electroluminescence lighting device 100.
- FIG. 2A to 2E are top views showing respective manufacturing steps of the organic electroluminescent lighting device 100 shown in FIG. 1A.
- one electrode film 111, a power supply terminal film 121, and a power supply terminal film 131 are formed on the surface of the transparent substrate 110 (see FIG. 2A). ).
- the electrode film 111 and the power supply terminal film 121 are integrated, and the power supply terminal film 131 is separated from the electrode film 111 and the power supply terminal film 121.
- a transparent conductive material or transparent metal oxide (for example, ITO) is used for the electrode film 111 and the power supply terminal films 121 and 131.

At this time, since the auxiliary electrode film 112 is formed on the surface of the electrode film 111, the wiring resistance is reduced. Therefore, the value of the drop voltage is also reduced. Therefore, it is possible to suppress nonuniform brightness in the organic light emitting film.

- the auxiliary electrode film 112 has a thickness of 1 to 2 ⁇ m including the portion covered with the insulating film 113, and the organic light emitting film 114 has a thickness of about 300 nm. Therefore, the auxiliary electrode film 112 has a very thick structure as compared with the film thickness of the organic light emitting film 114. For this reason, there is a concern that the organic light emitting film 114 is cut off due to the thickness of the auxiliary electrode 112 and a problem such as short circuit or open occurs.
