A display apparatus can include a substrate including a hole area, an insulating layer disposed over the substrate, a transistor including a gate electrode, a source electrode and a drain electrode over the insulating layer, a planarization layer over the transistor, an anode electrode on the planarization layer, an organic light emitting layer on the anode electrode, and a cathode electrode on the organic light emitting layer. Also, the display apparatus can further include a bank-spacer layer over the anode electrode and partitioning the organic light emitting layer, a plurality of signal lines, a dam disposed between the hole area and the plurality of signal lines, and a structure disposed between the dam and the hole area. Also, the bank-spacer layer is configured by a half-tone exposure process and the structure disconnects some of the cathode electrode and the organic light emitting layer.

Display apparatus having substrate hole

The present disclosure discloses a display apparatus, including a substrate including a pixel area including a disconnected area which encloses a hole area, an organic light emitting diode formed in the pixel area and the disconnected area, a plurality of inorganic insulating layers disposed below the organic light emitting diode, a disconnection structure which is disposed in the disconnected area and encloses the hole area, and an internal dam which is disposed in the disconnected area and encloses the disconnection structure, and in which the disconnection structure includes an eave portion which is simultaneously formed with the internal dam and a trench which is formed by etching the plurality of inorganic insulating layers disposed below the eave portion, and the disconnection structure is configured to have a predetermined overhang and a predetermined depth by the eave portion and the trench structure.

Disclosed herein is a display device for increasing the transmittance of R, G, and B sub-pixels and reducing a transmittance of W sub-pixel through a pixel asymmetric design. To this end, the display device has a pixel asymmetric structure in which W sub-pixel has a different area from R, G and B sub-pixels. As a result, as the display device has an asymmetric structure in which the areas of W, R, G, and B sub-pixels are different from one another, particularly, an asymmetric structure in which the area of W sub-pixel is reduced and the area of R sub-pixel is increased. Such design has a structural advantage that the transmittance of R, G, and B sub-pixels can be increased and the transmittance of W sub-pixel can be lowered so that it is possible to correspond the product specifications in various ways.
