US Patent 7663310 Organic electro luminescence display and method of fabricating the same

An organic electro luminescence (EL) display with low light transmittance material removed from an emission region. The organic EL display comprises a substrate having the emission region and a TFT region. A TFT is formed on the substrate in the TFT region and includes an active layer having source/drain regions, a gate electrode formed on a gate insulating layer, and source/drain electrodes electrically coupled to the source/drain regions. A passivation layer is formed in the TFT region only and it includes a via hole exposing one of the source/drain electrodes. An organic EL element is formed in the emission region and is electrically coupled to one of the source/drain electrodes exposed through the via hole.
