A display device includes a substrate with a display region and a non-display region. The display region includes first pixels, second pixels, and third pixels. Each of the first to third pixels have emission regions from which light is to be emitted, a light emitting element in the emission region, and a pixel circuit area to drive the light emitting element. A dummy pattern extends through a non-emission region of the substrate located in the display region between adjacent pixels. A thin film encapsulation layer covers the dummy pattern and each of the emission regions.

Display device and manufacturing method thereof

A display device includes a substrate with a display region and a non-display region. First to third pixels are in the display region and have emission regions to emit light from corresponding light emitting elements. Pixel circuit areas in the first to third pixels drive the light emitting elements. A dummy pattern is in a non-emission region, except the emission region. The dummy pattern extends along the extending direction of one pixel among the first to third pixels. A thin film encapsulation layer covers the dummy pattern and the light emitting element.

According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, an organic light emitting element includes: a first electrode; a second electrode overlapping the first electrode; and an emission layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode includes a metal layer including a first material, an oxidation layer including a second material and disposed on two opposing surfaces of the metal layer, and a barrier layer disposed at a surface of the oxidation layer, and the second material has a smaller Gibbs free energy than that of the first material.

The optical patterning mask had a protection layer on a light absorption layer. It prevents the light absorption layer from damaged by the cleaning gas when processing the used optical patterning mask for reuse. The protection layer may be made of the same material as bank layer or of material different from the bank layer. The bank layer defines the boundary of the area to be transferred in the transfer layer. The protection layer of the present invention can maintain longer the transfer efficiency of the optical patterning mask, even when the same mask is used repeatedly after cleaning, since the light absorption layer protected from cleaning process can maintain longer its heat conversion property.
