[0002] This application claims the priority and benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10 - 2020 - 0046822, filed on April 17, 2020, which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes as if fully set forth herein. Technical field

[0003] The present invention relates to a display device. Background art

[0004] Types of electronic paper include a twisted - sphere display using hemispherical twisted spheres with static charges, an electrophoretic display using an electrophoretic method and microcapsules, an in - plane switching electrophoretic display, and a cholesteric display using cholesteric liquid crystals. The most commercially available electrophoretic display utilizes the electrophoretic phenomenon, in which charged particles are dispersed in a dielectric liquid and move through an applied electric field.

[0005] The most representative electrophoretic display utilizes microcapsules filled with a dielectric liquid, which contain various types of ink particles having different charging characteristics and colors. When the microcapsules are mixed with an adhesive and placed between upper and lower electrodes, and then an electric field is applied, the charged ink particles move to the surface according to the electric field applied to each pixel, thereby completing color display.

[0006] The in - plane switching electrophoretic display has a partition structure called a microcup The microcup structure is formed by molding a photosensitive polymer layer using a calender with a patterned surface and then curing it with ultraviolet light. When observed on a plane, the microcup structure can have various shapes, but generally has a hexagonal honeycomb structure. The in - plane switching electrophoretic display is manufactured by spraying an electrophoretic dispersion liquid obtained by dispersing various charged pigment particles in a dielectric liquid onto the microcup structure and filling it, and then sealing the entrance of the microcup using a sealing layer formed by calendering.

[0060] Referring to Figures 1 to 4 , a display device 1 can be provided. The display device 1 may include a substrate 100, a driving chip 10, a driving layer 200, a display layer 300, a common electrode layer 400, a common pad 410, a conductive via 600, a lower pad 610, a protective layer 500, a protection pad 510, and a sealing film 700. The driving layer 200, the display layer 300, the common electrode layer 400, the common pad 410, the protective layer 500, and the protection pad 510 may be referred to as an electronic paper layer. The substrate 100 may include a transparent electrical insulating material. For example, the substrate 100 may be a glass substrate or a plastic substrate.

[0061] The driving chip 10 may be provided on the substrate 100. The driving chip 10 may be electrically connected to the driving layer 200 and the common electrode layer 400. For example, the driving chip 10 may be electrically connected to the driving layer 200 and the common electrode layer 400 through wires (not shown) provided on the substrate 100. The driving chip 10 may control driving elements in the driving layer 200 and may apply a common voltage to the common electrode layer 400.

[0062] The driving layer 200 may be provided on the substrate 100. The driving layer 200 and the driving chip 10 may be arranged along a first direction DR1 parallel to the upper surface 100u of the substrate 100. For example, the driving layer 200 may be spaced apart from the driving chip 10 along the first direction DR1. The driving layer 200 may include driving elements, a first conductive wire, and a second conductive wire. The driving elements may define each pixel. For example, the driving elements may be thin film transistors. The driving elements may respectively have pixel electrodes facing the display layer 300.

[0063] The first conductive wire may extend along a first direction DR1 parallel to the upper surface 100u of the substrate 100. The second conductive wire may extend along a second direction DR2, which is parallel to the upper surface 100u of the substrate 100 and intersects the first direction DR1. The driving elements may be respectively arranged in regions where the first conductive wire and the second conductive wire intersect. The first conductive wire and the second conductive wire may receive electrical signals from the driving chip. A driving voltage may be applied to the pixel electrodes of the driving elements in the regions where the first conductive wire and the second conductive wire receiving the electrical signals intersect.

[0064] ​The display layer 300 may be provided on the driving layer 200. The display layer 300 may cover the driving layer 200. As an example, a bonding layer may be provided between the display layer 300 and the driving layer 200. The display layer 300 may include electrophoretic particles having different electrical properties and different colors. For example, among the electrophoretic particles, some electrophoretic particles may have a positive charge and black color, and some other electrophoretic particles may have a negative charge and white color. For example, the electrophoretic particles having a positive charge and black color may be carbon black particles, and the electrophoretic particles having a negative charge and white color may be titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles or silicon dioxide (SiO2) particles. The electrophoretic particles may be provided within microcapsules or a partition structure together with a transparent dielectric liquid. The content output by the display device 1 may be determined according to the positions of the electrophoretic particles. In one embodiment, the electrophoretic particles may include white particles, black particles, and colored particles. The white particles and the black particles may be substantially the same as described above. The colored particles may have a color different from white and black. For example, the colored particles may have cyan, magenta, yellow, red, green, or blue. The colored particles may be charged negatively or positively. For example, the net charge amount of the colored particles may be less than the net charge amounts of the white particles and the black particles. The common electrode layer 400 may be provided on the display layer 300. The common electrode layer 400 may face the driving layer 200 with the display layer 300 therebetween. The common electrode layer 400 may include a transparent conductive material. For example, the common electrode layer 400 may include indium tin oxide (ITO). A common voltage different from the driving voltage may be applied to the common electrode layer 400. An electric field may be formed between the common electrode layer 400 and the pixel electrode. The positions of the electrophoretic particles may be controlled by the electric field between the common electrode layer 400 and the pixel electrode. In other words, the content output by the display device 1 may be determined by the electric field between the common electrode layer 400 controlled by the driving chip 10 and the pixel electrode. From the perspective of the third direction DR3 perpendicular to the upper surface 100u of the substrate 100, although the common electrode layer 400 is illustrated as including the display layer 300, it is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, from the perspective of the third direction DR3, the common electrode layer 400 may completely overlap with the display layer 300.

[0065] The common pad 410 may be provided on the first reference side 400s of the common electrode layer 400. The first reference side 400s may be the side of the common electrode layer 400 facing the first direction DR1. From the perspective of the angle along the third direction DR3, the distance between the first reference side 400s and the side of the substrate 100 may be approximately 5 to 7 millimeters. The common pad 410 may be provided at one end of the first reference side 400s. The common pad 410 may protrude from the first reference side 400s. For example, the common pad 410 may extend along the first direction DR1 on the first reference side 400s. The common pad 410 may include a conductive material. For example, the common pad 410 may include a metal (e.g., aluminum (Al) or copper (Cu)) or a transparent electrode material (e.g., ITO). The common pad 410 may be electrically connected to the common electrode layer 400. For example, the common pad 410 may directly contact the common electrode layer 400. As an example, the common pad 410 and the common electrode layer 400 may form a single-layer film. In other words, the common pad 410 and the common electrode layer 400 may be connected to each other without an interface therebetween. As an example, the common pad 410 and the common electrode layer 400 may be different films. In other words, the common pad 410 and the common electrode layer 400 may be connected to each other with an interface therebetween.

[0066] The lower pad 610 may be provided between the common pad 410 and the substrate 100. For example, the lower pad 610 may directly contact the upper surface 100u of the substrate 100. The lower pad 610 may be electrically connected to the driving chip 10 through a conductive wire extending along the upper surface 100u of the substrate 100. The lower pad 610 may include a conductive material. For example, the lower pad 610 may include aluminum (Al) or copper (Cu).

[0067] The conductive via 600 may be provided between the lower pad 610 and the common pad 410. The conductive via 600 may be electrically connected to the lower pad 610 and the common pad 410. For example, the conductive via 600 may directly contact the lower pad 610 and the common pad 410. The conductive via 600 may apply a common voltage to the common pad 410. For example, the conductive via 600 may include silver paste. The common pad 410 may apply a common voltage to the common electrode layer 400.

[0068] The protective layer 500 may be provided on the common electrode layer 400. The protective layer 500 may cover the common electrode layer 400. The protective layer 500 may protect the film disposed thereunder to prevent damage to the film. The protective layer 500 may include a transparent electrical insulating material. For example, the protective layer 500 may include a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film. As an example, an antiglare film may be provided on the upper or bottom surface of the protective layer 500. Although the protective layer 500 is illustrated as including the common electrode layer 400 when viewed from the angle along the third direction DR3, it is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, when viewed from the angle along the third direction DR3, the protective layer 500 may completely overlap with the common electrode layer 400.

[0069] The protection pad 510 may be provided on the common pad 410. The protection pad 510 may cover the common pad 410. The protection pad 510 may be provided on the second reference side surface 500s of the protective layer 500. The second reference side surface 500s may be the side surface of the protective layer 500 facing the first direction DR1. The second reference side surface 500s may be the side surface of the protective layer 500 directly adjacent to the first reference side surface 400s. The protection pad 510 may protrude from the second reference side surface 500s. For example, the protective layer 500 may extend along the first direction DR1 on the second reference side surface 500s. The protection pad 510 may include an electrical insulating material. For example, the protection pad 510 may include a PET film. As an example, the protection pad 410 and the protective layer 500 may form a single-layer film. In other words, the protection pad 510 and the protective layer 500 may be connected to each other without an interface therebetween. As an example, the protection pad 510 and the protective layer 500 may be different films. In other words, the protection pad 510 and the protective layer 500 may be connected to each other with an interface therebetween. Although the protection pad 510 is illustrated as including the common pad 410 when viewed from the angle along the third direction DR3, it is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, when viewed from the angle along the third direction DR3, the protection pad 510 may completely overlap with the common pad 410.

[0070] The sealing film 700 can be provided between the protective layer 500 and the substrate 100 and between the protective pad 510 and the substrate 100. The sealing film 700 can extend along the edges of the protective layer 500 and the protective pad 510. The sealing film 700 can cover the technical features to prevent the driving layer 200, the display layer 300, the common electrode layer 400, the common pad 410, the lower pad 610, and the conductive vias 600 from being damaged. The outer side surface 700s of the sealing film 700 can be perpendicular to the upper surface 100u of the substrate 100. The outer side surface 700s of the sealing film 700 can extend along the third direction DR3. Although the outer side surface 700s of the sealing film 700 directly adjacent to the second reference side surface 500s is illustrated as being coplanar with the second reference side surface 500s, it is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the outer side surface 700s of the sealing film 700 and the second reference side surface 500s can have a step difference, or the sealing film 700 can cover the second reference side surface 500s. The sealing film 700 can include an electrically insulating material. For example, the sealing film 700 can include silicon (Si) or a hot melt epoxy adhesive.

[0071] An additional region R1 can be provided on the second reference side surface 500s. The additional region R1 can be the region between the sealing film 700 directly adjacent to the second reference side surface 500s and the sealing film 700 provided under the protective pad 510. As an example, additional components can be provided on the opposite side of the additional region R1 with respect to the substrate 100. For example, the additional components can be at least one of a light-emitting component and an antenna component. When the additional component is a light-emitting component, the additional region R1 can be a region for emitting the light generated from the light-emitting component to the outside of the display device 1. When the additional component is an antenna component, the additional region can be a region for smoothly performing radio wave transmission / reception operations between the antenna component and an external device. When the driving layer 200, the display layer 300, and the common electrode layer 400 are arranged in the additional region R1, these layers can absorb light or interfere with communication.

[0072] Different from the present disclosure, when the common pad 410, the protective pad 510, the lower pad 610, and the conductive vias 600 are arranged adjacent to the driving chip 10, in order to arrange the common pad 410, the protective pad 510, the lower pad 610, and the conductive vias 600, the substrate 100 on the driving chip 10 side may be required to have a large area. In addition, in order for the display device 1 to have additional components (for example, a light-emitting component or an antenna component), as described in the present disclosure, an additional region R1 may be additionally required.

[0073] The common pad 410, the protection pad 510, the lower pad 610, the conductive via 600, and the additional region R1 of the present disclosure can improve the integration degree of the display device 1 by being provided on the opposite side of the driving chip 10. The size of the non-display region of the display device 1 (i.e., the region other than the display layer 300 when viewed from the angle along the third direction DR3) can be reduced.
