This application is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 16/894,953 filed on Jun. 8, 2020, now U.S. Pat. No. 11,342,404, which claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119 to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0101063 filed in the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Aug. 19, 2019, the disclosures of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entireties.
The present invention relates to an organic light emitting diode display and a manufacturing method thereof, and more particularly to an organic light emitting diode display including a partition made of an inorganic material and a manufacturing method thereof.
An organic light emitting diode (OLED) display works without a backlight because it emits visible light. Thus, it can display deep black levels and can be thinner and lighter than a liquid crystal display (LCD) device. Further, the OLED display has high quality characteristics such as low power consumption, high luminance, high response speed, and the like.
In an OLED display, a pixel may include a thin film transistor and an OLED, the thin film transistor may be protected by a planarization layer, and the OLED may be partitioned by a partition. Typically, the planarization layer and the partition are made of an organic material such as a polyimide or a polyamide.
However, when the organic material is exposed to sunlight for a long time, the organic material generates gases such as carbon or oxygen, thereby deteriorating the OLED.
