Abstract

The present disclosure provides a flexible organic light-emitting diode (OLED) device and a fabrication method thereof, wherein the flexible organic light emitting diode (OLED) device includes a substrate, an array unit layer, a light-emitting device layer, and an encapsulation layer that are sequentially disposed. The encapsulation layer includes a first inorganic layer, a first organic layer and a second inorganic layer that are sequentially disposed. The second inorganic layer has a continuous wavy curved-configuration, and an interface between the second inorganic layer and the first organic layer has a continuous wavy curved-shape. The present disclosure is directed to a flexible OLED device using a novel outer inorganic layer to increase the contact area between the outer inorganic layer and the inner organic layer, thereby effectively reducing risks of breakage of the outer inorganic layer.
