A display device includes a substrate including a first surface from which a pattern including an end portion is defined and a second surface which is parallel to the first surface. When an inner radius from a reference line positioned above the end portion and parallel with the first surface of the substrate to a surface of the pattern defining about 90 degrees is referred to as a first inner radius and an inner radius from the reference line to the surface of the pattern defining about 45 degrees is a second inner radius, a ratio of the second inner radius to the first inner radius is about 0.7 or more.

Display device including substrate including patterns and patterning method of substrate

A window includes a window layer that includes a first section, a second section, and a folding section that is disposed between the first section and the second section and is foldable with respect to a folding axis extending in a direction. The folding section includes at least one opening pattern, and in a plan view, a maximum distance between two points on an inner line of the folding section that defines the at least one opening pattern is about 10 micrometers to about 200 micrometers.
