Provided is a display device. The display device includes a flexible substrate comprising an active area, and a non-active area surrounding a border of the active area; a thin-film transistor and a light-emitting element on the active area; an encapsulation unit over the thin-film transistor and the light-emitting element; a hole formed in the active area by removing a portion of the flexible substrate; a first common layer disposed on a side surface of the hole, extended from the light-emitting element and comprising same elements with the light-emitting element; and a tip protruding from the side surface of the hole. The first common layer disposed adjacent to the tip is disconnected from the light-emitting element.

Display device and method for fabricating the same

A display device comprises a display panel configured to display an image. A fingerprint sensor is under the display panel and is configured to sense a fingerprint. An impact mitigating layer partially surrounds the fingerprint sensor and is configured to absorb impacts or pressure to the display device. A shielding layer is between the display panel and the fingerprint sensor and the impact mitigating layer. The shielding layer blocks at least one of heat, electromagnetic interference, or light.

Display device

A flexible display device can include a first portion in which an organic light emitting element is disposed on a first surface; a base layer made of a flexible substrate including a second portion, outside of the first portion, having a bend section bent toward a second surface opposite to the first surface; and a protective coating layer covering at least a part of the second portion, wherein a polarization layer is on the organic light emitting element of the first portion without a barrier film, and wherein the protective coating layer is coated such that a portion adjacent to the polarization layer is thicker than the other portion.

Flexible display including protective coating layer having different thickness in bend section

Provided is a display device that includes a display panel defined with an active area displaying an image and an inactive area outside the active area, the display panel including a substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface; a plurality of pixels on the first surface of the substrate in the active area, each pixel including a pixel drive circuit; a transparent conductive layer on the second surface of the substrate covering the active area and a part of the inactive area; and a metal pattern on the second surface of the substrate in the inactive area, the metal pattern electrically connected to the transparent conductive layer, receiving an electrical signal and having a lower resistance than the transparent conductive layer, wherein the metal pattern serves as a conductive path to reduce a potential difference with respect to the electrical signal in an entire area of the transparent conductive layer compared to a display device without the metal pattern.

Provided is a display panel including a loop-shaped conductive path which is manufactured by performing a conductive ink jetting process and a high-degree vacuum removal process to effectively vaporizing a solvent in a conductive ink line at lower temperature than the boiling point at atmospheric pressure of the solvent. The conductive path manufactured as such does not allow a stain or a trace, such as a pull-back region, to be left around the conductive path. Thus, it is possible to obtain the loop-shaped conductive path having an initially intended design without being damaged during a process.

Display panel and method of manufacturing the same

Discussed is a display device in which a first pressure electrode configuring a pressure touch panel is adhered to a first polarizing film attached on a lower end of a panel. The display device includes a display panel displaying an image, a capacitive touch panel provided in the display panel and including a plurality of touch electrodes, a first polarizing film adhered to a first side surface of the display panel, a first pressure electrode part adhered to a first side surface of the first polarizing film and including a first pressure electrode, and a second pressure electrode part spaced apart from the first pressure electrode part and including a second pressure electrode facing the first pressure electrode.

Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a display device having a display area and a non-display area, the method including aligning a mask over a substrate, the mask including a central shield portion, a peripheral shield portion outside the central shield portion, with an opening between the central shield portion and the peripheral shield portion, a holding portion in the opening that connects the central shield portion with the peripheral shield portion, and a diffusion area under the holding portion defined by a thickness difference of the mask between the holding portion and one of the central and peripheral shield portions; depositing a conductive material on the substrate through the mask to form a single pieced, loop-shaped conductive path surrounding the display area in the non-display area; and forming a transparent conductive layer on the substrate, the transparent conductive layer being continuously formed in the display and non-display areas and formed to be in direct contact with the single pieced, loop-shaped conductive path.
