[0045] Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, various embodiments will be described in detail so that those skilled in the art can easily implement the inventive concept.

[0046] The inventive concept may be embodied in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments set forth herein.

[0047] In order to clearly describe the present inventive concept, parts irrelevant to the description are omitted, and the same reference numerals are assigned to the same or similar components throughout the specification.

[0048] In addition, since the size and thickness of each component shown in the drawings are arbitrarily illustrated for convenience of explanation, the present inventive concept is not necessarily limited to the size and thickness of each component shown.

[0049] In the drawings, the thickness is exaggerated to clearly express each layer and region.

[0050] Also, in the drawings, the thicknesses of some layers and regions are exaggerated for convenience of explanation.

[0051] Furthermore, when a component such as a layer, film, region, panel, or assembly is referred to as being “on” or “over” another component, this means not only when the component is “directly on” the other component but also when there is another component between the component and the other component.

[0052] In contrast, when a component is referred to as being “directly on” another component, it means that there are no other components between the component and the other component.

[0053] In addition, “above” or “on” a reference component means being located above or below the reference component, and does not necessarily mean being located “above” or “on” the reference component in an opposite direction of gravity.

[0054] In addition, throughout the specification, when a certain component is referred to as “comprising”, unless otherwise specified, it means that the certain component may also include other components rather than excluding the other components.

[0055] In addition, throughout the specification, when “in a plan view” is mentioned, it means when the target component is viewed from above, and when “in a cross-sectional view” is mentioned, it means when a vertically cut cross section of the target component is viewed from the side.

[0056] In addition, throughout the specification, when "connected" is used, it not only means that two or more components are directly connected, but also means that when two or more components are indirectly connected through other components, the two or more components are physically connected. In addition to being connected or electrically connected, a plurality of components that are referred to by different names according to their positions or functions but are substantially integral may also be connected to each other.

[0057] In addition, throughout the specification, when a portion such as a wiring, layer, film, region, board, component, etc. "extends in a first direction or a second direction", the portion only means a straight line extending in the corresponding direction. On the contrary, the portion is a structure extending substantially along the first direction or the second direction, and includes a structure that is bent at one part, has a zigzag structure, or extends while including a curved structure.

[0058] In addition, electronic devices (e.g., mobile phones, televisions (TVs), monitors, and notebook computers) that include the display devices and display panels described in this specification or the display devices and display panels manufactured by the manufacturing methods described in this specification are not excluded from the scope of this specification.

[0059] In the following, we will Figures 1 to 3 A schematic structure of a display device is described.

[0060] Figure 1 is a schematic perspective view showing a use state of a display device according to an embodiment, Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view of a display device according to an embodiment, and Figure 3 is a block diagram of a display device according to an embodiment.

[0061] Reference Figure 1 The display device 1000 according to the embodiment is a device for displaying a moving image (or dynamic image) or a static image, and may be a smart phone, a tablet personal computer (PC), or a mobile phone. Not only portable electronic devices such as communication terminals, electronic notebooks, electronic books, portable multimedia players (PMP), navigation devices, and ultra mobile PCs (UMPCs), but also such as televisions, laptop computers, monitors, billboards, Internet of Things (IoT), etc., can be used as a display screen for various products.

[0062] In addition, the display device 1000 according to the embodiment may be used for wearable devices such as a smart watch, a watch phone, a glasses-type display, and a head-mounted display (HMD).

[0063] In addition, the display device 1000 according to the embodiment includes a central information display (CID) set on the instrument panel of the vehicle, the central instrument panel or dashboard of the vehicle, or an interior rearview mirror display (interior rearview mirror display) of the vehicle instead of a side mirror, an entertainment facility for the rear seats of the vehicle, and can be used as a display placed on the back of the front seats of the vehicle.

[0064] For ease of explanation, Figure 1 The display device 1000 is shown used as a smartphone.

[0065] The display device 1000 may display an image in the third direction DR3 on a display surface parallel to each of the first direction DR1 and the second direction DR2 .

[0066] The display surface on which the image is displayed may correspond to the front surface of the display device 1000 , and may correspond to the front surface of the cover window WU.

[0067] Images can include static images as well as dynamic images.

[0068] In the present embodiment, the front (or upper) surface and the rear (or lower) surface of each member are defined based on the direction in which an image is displayed.

[0069] The front surface and the rear surface face away from each other in the third direction DR3, and a normal direction of each of the front surface and the rear surface may be parallel to the third direction DR3.

[0070] A separation distance between the front surface and the rear surface in the third direction DR3 may correspond to a thickness of the display panel in the third direction DR3.

[0071] The display device 1000 according to the embodiment may detect a user's input applied from the outside (refer to Figure 1 hand in the middle).

[0072] The user's input may include various types of external inputs, such as a part of the user's body, light, heat, or pressure.

[0073] In one embodiment, the user's input is shown as being applied with the user's hand in the foreground.

[0074] However, the inventive concept is not limited thereto.

[0075] The user's input may be provided in various forms, and the display apparatus 1000 may detect the user's input applied to a side surface or a rear surface of the display apparatus 1000 according to the structure of the display apparatus 1000 .

[0076] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the display device 1000 may include a cover window WU, a housing HM, a display panel DP, and an optical element ES.

[0077] In one embodiment, the cover window WU and the housing HM may be combined to form an appearance of the display device 1000 .

[0078] The cover window WU may include an insulating panel.

[0079] For example, the cover window WU may be made of glass, plastic, or a combination thereof.

[0080] The front surface of the cover window WU may define the front surface of the display device 1000 .

[0081] The transmission area TA may be an optically transparent area.

[0082] For example, the transmission area TA may have a visible light transmittance (light transmittance) of about 90% or more.

[0083] The blocking area BA may define the shape of the transmission area TA.

[0084] The blocking area BA may be disposed adjacent to the transmission area TA, and may surround the transmission area TA.

[0085] The blocking area BA may have relatively low light transmittance compared to the transmission area TA.

[0086] The blocking area BA may include an opaque material that blocks light.

[0087] The barrier area BA may have a predetermined color.

[0088] The blocking area BA may be defined by a bezel layer provided separately from the transparent substrate defining the transmission area TA, or may be defined by an ink layer inserted into or colored in the transparent substrate.

[0089] The display panel DP may include display pixels PX (pixels PX) displaying an image and a driving unit 50 , and the display pixels PX are located in the display area DA.

[0090] The display panel DP may include a front surface including a display area DA and a peripheral area PA.

[0091] The display area DA may be a region including display pixels PX in which the pixels PX operate according to electrical signals to emit light.

[0092] In an embodiment, the display area DA may be a region including pixels PX and displaying an image, and may also be a region in which the touch sensors TS (see FIG. Figure 3 ) is an area positioned above the pixel PX in the third direction DR3 to detect an external input.

[0093] The transmission area TA of the cover window WU may at least partially overlap the display area DA of the display panel DP.

[0094] For example, the transmission area TA may overlap the entire surface of the display area DA or may overlap at least a portion of the display area DA.

[0095] Therefore, the user may observe an image through the transmissive area TA or provide an external input based on the image.

[0096] However, the inventive concept is not limited thereto.

[0097] For example, within the display area DA, an area in which an image is displayed and an area in which an external input is sensed may be separated from each other.

[0098] The peripheral area PA of the display panel DP may at least partially overlap the blocking area BA of the cover window WU.

[0099] The peripheral area PA may be an area covered by the barrier area BA.

[0100] The peripheral area PA is disposed adjacent to the display area DA and may surround the display area DA.

[0101] An image is not displayed in the peripheral area PA, and a driving circuit or driving wiring for driving the display area DA may be provided in the peripheral area PA.

[0102] The peripheral area PA may include a first peripheral area PA1 located outside the display area DA and a second peripheral area PA2 including the driving unit 50, the connection wiring, and the bending area.

[0103] exist Figure 2 In the embodiment of the present invention, the first peripheral area PA1 is located on three sides of the display area DA, and the second peripheral area PA2 is located on the remaining sides of the display area DA.

[0104] In one embodiment, the display panel DP may be assembled in a flat state having the display area DA and the peripheral area PA facing the cover window WU.

[0105] However, the inventive concept is not limited thereto.

[0106] A portion of the peripheral area PA of the display panel DP may be bent.

[0107] In this case, a portion of the peripheral area PA faces the rear surface of the display device 1000, so that the blocking area BA visible on the front surface of the display device 1000 can be reduced, and Figure 2 In the embodiment, the second peripheral area PA2 may be bent and positioned on the rear surface of the display area DA, and then assembled.

[0108] In addition, the display area DA of the display panel DP may include an assembly area EA, and specifically, may include a first assembly area EA1 and a second assembly area EA2.

[0109] The first assembly area EA1 and the second assembly area EA2 may be at least partially surrounded by the display area DA.

[0110] The first assembly area EA1 and the second assembly area EA2 are shown to be spaced apart from each other, but the configuration of the first assembly area EA1 and the second assembly area EA2 is not limited thereto and may be at least partially connected.

[0111] The first component area EA1 and the second component area EA2 may be areas in which components using infrared light, visible light, or / and sound are disposed.

[0112] In the display area DA, a plurality of light emitting diodes and a plurality of pixel circuit units that generate and transfer light emitting current are formed as a plurality of pixels PX.

[0113] Here, one light emitting diode and one pixel circuit unit are referred to as one pixel PX.

[0114] In the display area DA, one pixel circuit unit and one light emitting diode are formed in a one-to-one arrangement.

[0115] The first assembly area EA1 may include a transmission (transmission) portion through which light or / and sound may penetrate and a display portion including a plurality of pixels PX.

[0116] The transmission (transmission) portion is positioned between adjacent pixels PX, and is composed of a layer through which light or / and sound can penetrate.

[0117] The display unit may be formed to have one unit structure by combining a plurality of pixels PX, and a transmission (transmission) unit may be positioned between adjacent unit structures.

[0118] According to an embodiment, a layer that does not transmit light, such as a light blocking layer, may overlap the first component area EA1.

[0119] The second component area EA2 includes an area composed of a transparent layer that allows light to penetrate, no conductive layer or semiconductor layer is positioned, and a pixel defining layer such as a light blocking layer (including a light blocking material) is provided in the second component area EA2, and by including an opening in a region corresponding to a position corresponding to the second component area EA2, it is possible to have a structure that does not block light.

[0120] A portion of the second component area EA2 may include a portion in which pixels PX including light emitting diodes are formed to block light.

[0121] Reference Figure 3 In addition to the display area DA including the display pixels PX, the display panel DP may further include a touch sensor TS.

[0122] The display panel DP including the pixels PX can be Figure 2 ) is visually recognized by a user from the outside, and the pixel PX is a component for generating an image.

[0123] In addition, the touch sensor TS may be positioned above the pixel PX and may detect an external input applied from the outside.

[0124] The touch sensor TS can detect the touch signal provided to the cover window WU (see Figure 2 ) external input.

[0125] Again, refer to Figure 2 , the second peripheral area PA2 may include a bent portion.

[0126] The display area DA and the first peripheral area PA1 may have a flat surface substantially parallel to a plane defined by the first direction DR1 and the second direction DR2, and the second peripheral area PA2 may be bent. One side of the second peripheral area PA2 may extend from the flat surface. The second peripheral area PA2 may have a flat surface, a bent surface, and a flat surface sequentially disposed along the second direction DR2.

[0127] As a result, at least a portion of the second peripheral area PA2 may be bent and assembled to be positioned at the rear side of the display area DA.

[0128] When assembled, at least a portion of the second peripheral area PA2 overlaps the display area DA in a plan view, and thus the blocking area BA of the display device 1000 may be reduced.

[0129] However, the inventive concept is not limited thereto.

[0130] For example, the second peripheral area PA2 may not be bent.

[0131] The driving unit 50 may be mounted on the second peripheral area PA2, and may be mounted on the bent surface or on one of both sides of the bent surface.

[0132] The driving unit 50 may be provided in the form of a chip.

[0133] The driving unit 50 may be electrically connected to the display area DA to transmit an electrical signal to the display area DA.

[0134] For example, the driving unit 50 may provide data signals to the pixels PX disposed in the display area DA.

[0135] Alternatively, the driving unit 50 may include a touch driving circuit and may be electrically connected to the touch sensor TS provided in the display area DA (see FIG. Figure 3 ).

[0136] Meanwhile, the driving unit 50 may include various circuits other than the above-mentioned circuits, or may be designed to provide various electrical signals to the display area DA.

[0137] Meanwhile, the display device 1000 may have a pad part at an end of the second peripheral area PA2 and may be electrically connected to a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) including a driving chip through the pad part.

[0138] Here, the driving chip positioned on the flexible printed circuit board may include various driving circuits for driving the display device 1000 or a connector for supplying power.

[0139] According to an embodiment, a rigid printed circuit board (PCB) may be used instead of a flexible printed circuit board.

[0140] The optical element ES may be disposed under the display panel DP.

[0141] The optical element ES may include a first optical element ES1 overlapping the first component area EA1 and a second optical element ES2 overlapping the second component area EA2.

[0142] The first optical element ES1 may use infrared light. In this case, a layer through which light is not transmitted, such as a light blocking layer, may overlap the first component area EA1.

[0143] The first optical element ES1 may be an electronic element using light and / or sound.

[0144] For example, the first optical element ES1 can be a sensor that receives and uses light (such as an infrared sensor), a sensor that outputs and detects light or sound to measure distance or recognize fingerprints, or a small lamp that outputs light, and the first optical element ES1 can be a speaker that outputs sound, etc.

[0145] In the case of an electronic component using light, light of various wavelength bands such as visible light, infrared light, and ultraviolet light can be used.

[0146] The second optical element ES2 may include at least one of a camera, an infrared (IR) camera, a dot projector, an IR illuminator, and a time-of-flight sensor (ToF sensor).

[0147] Reference Figure 3 , the display device 1000 may include a display panel DP, a power module PM, a first electronic module EM1 and a second electronic module EM2.

[0148] The display panel DP, the power module PM, the first electronic module EM1 and the second electronic module EM2 may be electrically connected to each other.

[0149] Figure 3 The display pixels PX and the touch sensors TS positioned in the display area DA are shown among the multiple components of the display panel DP.

[0150] The power module PM may supply power required for overall operations of the display apparatus 1000 .

[0151] The power module PM may include a conventional battery module.

[0152] The first electronic module EM1 and the second electronic module EM2 may include various functional modules for operating the display device 1000 .

[0153] The first electronic module EM1 may be directly mounted on a motherboard electrically connected to the display panel DP, or may be mounted on a separate board and electrically connected to the motherboard through a connector (not shown).

[0154] The first electronic module EM1 may include a control module CM, a wireless communication module TM, an image input module IIM, an audio input module AIM, a memory MM, and / or an external interface IF.

[0155] Some modules may not be mounted on the main board, and may be electrically connected to the main board through a flexible printed circuit board connected thereto.

[0193] The display device 1000 may be folded outward or inward with respect to the folding axis FAX.

[0194] When folded outwardly with respect to the folding axis FAX, the display surface of the display device 1000 is positioned on the outside in the third direction DR3 so that images can be displayed in two directions.

[0201] Figure 5 is a plan view showing an enlarged portion of a light emitting display device according to an embodiment.

[0202] Figure 5 A portion of a light emitting display panel DP of a light emitting display device according to an embodiment is shown and is illustrated using a display panel for a mobile phone.

[0203] The light emitting display panel (display panel) DP has a display area DA positioned at the front, and may include an assembly area EA at the front. Specifically, the light emitting display panel DP may include a first assembly area EA1 and a second assembly area EA2.

[0208] In the display area DA, a plurality of light emitting diodes and a plurality of pixel circuit units that generate and transfer light emitting current are formed as a plurality of pixels PX.

[0209] Here, one light emitting diode and one pixel circuit unit are referred to as one pixel PX.

[0210] In the display area DA, one pixel circuit unit and one light emitting diode are formed in a one-to-one arrangement.

[0211] The display area DA is also referred to as a “normal display area”.

[0212] although Figure 5 The structure of the light-emitting display panel DP below the cutting line is not shown in FIG. 1 , but the display area DA may be located below the cutting line.

[0214] Meanwhile, even if the light transmission area is located in the lower panel layer, if there is no corresponding opening in the upper panel layer, it may be the display area DA instead of the first assembly area EA1.

[0215] Meanwhile, when the first optical element ES1 corresponding to the first component area EA1 uses infrared rays instead of visible light, the first component area EA1 may overlap the light blocking layer 220 that blocks the visible light.

[0216] The light emitting display panel DP according to the embodiment may be mainly divided into a lower panel layer and an upper panel layer.

[0217] The lower panel layer is a portion where the light emitting diodes constituting the pixels and the pixel circuit units are located, and may even include an encapsulation layer covering the lower panel layer (see Fig. 22 The encapsulation layer 400 in FIG.

[0219] On the other hand, the upper panel layer is a portion located on top of the lower panel layer, and the upper panel layer includes a sensing insulating layer (see Fig. 22 The sensing insulating layers 501, 510 and 511 in FIG. 5 and the plurality of sensing electrodes capable of detecting touch (refer to FIG. 5 ) Fig. 22 The sensing electrodes 540 and 541 in FIG. 5 ) may include a light blocking layer (see FIG. Fig. 22 The light blocking layer 220 in Fig. 22 The color filter layer 230 in Fig. 22 The planarization layer 550 in FIG.

[0221] although Figure 5 Not shown in the figure, the peripheral area may also be positioned outside the display area DA.

[0222] In addition, although Figure 5 A display panel for a mobile phone is shown, but the present embodiment can be applied to any display panel in which an optical element can be positioned on the rear surface of the display panel, or a flexible display device.

[0223] In the case of a foldable display device among the flexible display devices, the positions of the second assembly area EA2 and the first assembly area EA1 may be formed at the same Figure 5 The location is different from the location.

[0232] The first scan line 151 is connected to a scan driving unit (not shown) to transmit a first scan signal GW to the second transistor T2 and the seventh transistor T7.

[0233] A voltage having a polarity opposite to that of the voltage applied to the first scan line 151 may be applied to the second scan line 152 simultaneously with the signal of the first scan line 151 .

[0234] For example, when a voltage of a negative polarity is applied to the first scan line 151 , a voltage of a positive polarity may be applied to the second scan line 152 .

[0235] The second scan line 152 transmits the second scan signal GC to the third transistor T3.

[0324] After forming the first gate conductive layer GAT1 including the gate electrode 1151 of the driving transistor T1 , plasma treatment or a doping process is performed so that the first semiconductor layer 130 exposed by and not covered by the first gate conductive layer GAT1 may become conductive.

[0325] In other words, the first semiconductor layer 130 covered by the first gate conductive layer GAT1 may form a channel without being conductive, and a portion of the first semiconductor layer 130 not covered by the first gate conductive layer GAT1 may have the same characteristics as a conductive layer.

[0334] Since the portion of the first semiconductor layer 130 overlapping the shielding layer SHL in a plan view is located on a path where the output current output from the driving transistor T1 is transmitted to the anode of the light emitting diode LED, it is also referred to as an output current passing region of the first semiconductor layer 130 .

[0356] The third gate insulating layer 143 may be positioned on the entire surfaces of the oxide semiconductor layer and the first interlayer insulating layer 161 .

[0357] Therefore, the third gate insulating layer 143 is formed on the channel 3137, the first region 3136 and the second region 3138 of the third transistor T3, the channel 4137, the first region 4136 and the second region 4138 of the fourth transistor T4, and may cover the boosting capacitor C boost The top surface and side surfaces of the upper boosting electrode 3138t.

[0358] However, the present embodiment is not limited thereto, and the third gate insulating layer 143 may not be located on the entire surfaces of the oxide semiconductor layer and the first interlayer insulating layer 161 .

[0359] For example, the third gate insulating layer 143 may overlap with the channel 3137 and may not overlap with the first region 3136 and the second region 3138 of the third transistor T3 .

[0360] In addition, the third gate insulating layer 143 may overlap with the channel 4137 and may not overlap with the first region 4136 and the second region 4138 of the fourth transistor T4.

[0366] The gate electrode 4151 of the fourth transistor T4 may overlap with the lower shielding layer 4155 of the fourth transistor T4.

[0367] The third gate conductive layer GAT3 may further include an upper second scan line 152 b and an initialization control line 153 .

[0368] The upper second scan line 152 b and the initialization control line 153 may extend substantially in the horizontal direction (the first direction DR1 ).

[0369] The upper second scan line 152b includes a gate electrode 3151 of the third transistor T3 and forms the second scan line 152 together with the lower second scan line 152a (see Figure 6 ).

[0370] The initialization control line 153 includes a gate electrode 4151 of the fourth transistor T4 and is electrically connected to the second gate conductive layer GAT2 through the opening OP1 (see FIG. 1 ). Fig. 22 )'s lower shielding layer 4155.

[0371] Here, the opening OP1 is formed in the third gate insulating layer 143 (see Fig. 22 ) and the first interlayer insulating layer 161 (see Fig. 22 ) to expose a portion of the lower shielding layer 4155 of the second gate conductive layer GAT2, and the portion of the lower shielding layer 4155 is electrically connected to the initialization control line 153 located thereover.

[0372] In addition, the third gate conductive layer GAT3 may further include a first initialization voltage line 127 .

[0373] The first initialization voltage line 127 may extend substantially in a horizontal direction (first direction DR1) and apply a first initialization voltage Vinit (see FIG. Figure 6 ).

[0374] The initialization control line 153 may overlap the shielding layer SHL and the lower shielding layer 4155 positioned in the second gate conductive layer GAT2 .

[0375] First, the role of the shield layer SHL overlapping the initialization control line 153 will be described below.

[0376] Even if the initialization control signal GI (see Figure 6 ) changes, the fluctuation of the initialization control signal GI does not affect the output current passing area overlapping with the initialization control line 153 and the shielding layer SHL in the plan view.

[0377] As a result, the output current delivered to the light emitting diode LED has no influence on the change of the initialization control signal GI, and the display quality can be improved.

[0378] Meanwhile, the lower shield layer 4155 overlapping the initialization control line 153 functions as follows.

[0379] Reference Fig.10 and Fig.12 , the second scan line 152 (see Figure 6 ) has a double-layer structure including a lower second scan line 152a and an upper second scan line 152b, but the initialization control line 153 only includes Fig.12 The initialization control line 153 in the embodiment has a single-layer structure.

[0380] As a result, due to the third transistor T3 (see Figure 6) is vertically applied in the cross-sectional view by the second scanning signal GC (see Figure 6 ) control, so the third transistor T3 can be more strongly controlled and properly operated, and leakage current can be avoided.

[0381] On the contrary, since the initialization control line 153 has a single-layer structure, the fourth transistor T4 (see FIG. 14 ) connected to the initialization control line 153 is larger than the third transistor T3. Figure 6 ) may be weakly controlled, which may cause leakage current.

[0382] However, in the present inventive concept, although the initialization control line 153 has a single-layer structure, the lower shielding layer 4155 is positioned below the channel 4137 of the fourth transistor T4, and the lower shielding layer 4155 is connected to the initialization control line 153 through the opening OP1, and the channel 4137 of the fourth transistor T4 can be subjected to the initialization control signal GI (see FIG. Figure 6 ) influence, the fourth transistor T4 is also more strongly controlled so that the fourth transistor T4 operates properly and leakage current can be avoided.

[0383] As a result, each pixel can be appropriately controlled to provide improved display quality.

[0384] The third gate conductive layer GAT3 may include a metal or a metal alloy such as copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), aluminum (Al), or titanium (Ti), and may be composed of a single layer or a multilayer.

[0385] In forming the third gate conductive layer GAT3 including the gate electrode 3151 of the third transistor T3 and the gate electrode 4151 of the fourth transistor T4 (see Fig. 22 ), the portion of the oxide semiconductor layer not covered by the gate electrode 3151 of the third transistor T3 and the gate electrode 4151 of the fourth transistor T4 may have enhanced conductivity through a plasma treatment or a doping process. The oxide semiconductor layer covered by the gate electrode 3151 of the third transistor T3 and the gate electrode 4151 of the fourth transistor T4 may not have enhanced conductivity and may form a channel of the third transistor T3 and a channel of the fourth transistor T4.

[0386] The channel 3137 of the third transistor T3 may be positioned below the gate electrode 3151 to overlap with the gate electrode 3151 .

[0455] The third data conductive layer may include data lines 171 and 171 - 1 and a third anode connection electrode ACM3 .

[0456] The data lines 171 and 171 - 1 may extend substantially in a vertical direction (second direction DR2 ).

[0457] The data lines 171 and 171-1 are connected to the connection portion 171CM2 of the second data conductive layer and the first data conductive layer and the second transistor T2 (see FIG. 1 ) through the opening OP4. Figure 6 ) connection part 171CM.

[0458] Here, the data lines 171 and 171 - 1 may each have a structure connected to the second transistors T2 included in two adjacent pixels in the second direction DR2 .

[0459] The third anode connection electrode ACM3 is electrically connected to the second anode connection electrode ACM2 of the second data conductive layer through the opening OP4, and is thus electrically connected to the sixth transistor T6 (see FIG. 2 ). Figure 6 ).

[0460] The third data conductive layer may include a metal or a metal alloy such as aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), or titanium (Ti), and may be composed of a single layer or a multi-layer.

[0461] Reference Fig. 22 , the third organic layer 183 is positioned on the third data conductive layer.

[0462] The third organic layer 183 may be an organic insulating layer, and may include one or more materials selected from the group consisting of polyimide, polyamide, acrylic resin, benzocyclobutene, and phenolic resin.

[0463] The opening OP5 is formed in the third organic layer 183, and the anode and the third anode connection electrode ACM3 (see Fig.18 ) are electrically connected to each other through the opening OP5.

[0464] The first organic layer 181 , the second organic layer 182 , and the third organic layer 183 are formed by stacking organic layers and then planarizing the surface using a slit mask, so that the anode thereon can be more planarly formed.

[0465] A process using such a slit mask may be formed every time each organic layer is stacked, and some organic layers may not be subjected to a process of being exposed to light through a slit mark even after being stacked.

[0466] Furthermore, the slit marks used at this time have patterns parallel to the first direction DR1 (ie, horizontal direction), so they can more easily remove steps of the organic layer occurring due to vertical direction (second direction DR2) patterns formed on the first data conductive layer and / or the second data conductive layer.

[0467] Reference Fig. 20 and Fig.21 , an anode Anode is formed on the third organic layer 183 .

[0468] The anode Anode may further include an extension portion Anode-e to form a contact hole to receive current from the pixel circuit through the anode connection opening OP5.

[0469] exist Fig. 20 , Fig.21 and Fig. 22 In the embodiment, the pixel defining layer 380 is positioned on the anode Anode, and the openings OPr, OPg, and OPb of the pixel defining layer 380 are connected to the anode Anode.

[0470] The openings OPr, OPg, OPb formed by the pixel defining layer 380 may include a red opening OPr overlapping an anode of a red LED, a green opening OPg overlapping an anode of a green LED, and a blue opening OPb overlapping an anode of a blue LED.

[0471] The extension portion Anode-e of the anode Anode is not exposed through the openings OPr, OPg, and OPb of the pixel defining layer 380 , and has a structure overlapping the pixel defining layer 380 in a plan view.

[0472] As a result, the anode connection opening OP5 also has a structure overlapping the pixel defining layer 380 in a plan view.

[0473] According to an embodiment, the pixel defining layer 380 may have an opaque property, and in this case, may include a black pigment.

[0474] exist Fig.21 A planar structure in which the above structures are completely stacked is shown in FIG.

[0475] Further references Fig. 22Since the opening OP5 for connecting the anode does not overlap with the openings OPr, OPg, and OPb of the pixel defining layer 380 and the opening OPBM of the light blocking layer 220 in a plan view, the pixel defining layer 380 and the light blocking layer 220 overlap each other.

[0476] In addition, some of the openings OP3 located in the first organic layer 181 overlap with the openings OPBM of the light blocking layer 220 in a plan view, and the remaining openings OP3 overlap with the light blocking layer 220 in a plan view.

[0477] Meanwhile, in a plan view, all the openings OP3 may overlap the pixel defining layer 380 .

[0478] In addition, in the present embodiment, the openings OPr, OPg, OPb of the pixel defining layer 380 are formed in a region corresponding to the opening portion FL-SD2 of the second data conductive layer under the anode Anode, and thus the anode Anode may be formed to be flat.

[0479] As a result, external light is not reflected asymmetrically, so that the user cannot recognize the reflective color band.

[0480] As a result, degradation of display quality due to reflection of external light can be eliminated.

[0554] The encapsulation layer 400 may serve to protect the light emitting layer EML from moisture or oxygen that may be introduced from the outside.

[0555] According to an embodiment, encapsulation layer 400 may include a structure in which an inorganic layer and an organic layer are sequentially stacked.

[0556] On the encapsulation layer 400 , sensing insulation layers 501 , 510 , and 511 and a plurality of sensing electrodes 540 and 541 for touch sensing are positioned.

[0557] exist Fig. 22 In the embodiment of FIG. 5 , two sensing electrodes 540 and 541 may be used to sense touch in a capacitive type.

[0558] Specifically, the first sensing insulating layer 501 is formed on the encapsulation layer 400 , and a plurality of sensing electrodes 540 and 541 are formed thereon.

[0559] The plurality of sensing electrodes 540 and 541 may be insulated with the second sensing insulating layer 510 interposed therebetween, and some of the sensing electrodes 540 and 541 may be electrically connected through openings located in the sensing insulating layer 510 .

[0560] Here, the sensing electrodes 540 and 541 include a metal or a metal alloy such as aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), silver (Ag), gold (Au), molybdenum (Mo), titanium (Ti), and tantalum (Ta), and may be composed of a single layer or a multilayer.

[0561] The third sensing insulating layer 511 is formed on the sensing electrode 540 .

[0562] The light blocking layer 220 and the color filter 230 are positioned on the sensing electrode 540 and the third sensing insulating layer 511 .

[0563] The light blocking layer 220 may be positioned to overlap the sensing electrodes 540 and 541 in a plan view, and may be positioned not to overlap the anode Anode in a plan view.

[0564] This is to prevent the anode electrode Anode capable of transmitting an image from being covered by the light blocking layer 220 and the sensing electrodes 540 and 541 .

[0565] The color filter 230 may be positioned on the third sensing insulating layer 511 and the light blocking layer 220 .

[0566] The color filter 230 includes a red color filter that transmits red light, a green color filter that transmits green light, and a blue color filter that transmits blue light.

[0567] Each color filter 230 may be positioned to overlap an anode Anode of a light emitting diode in a plan view.

[0568] Light emitted from the light emitting layer EML may be emitted while passing through the color filter and changing into a corresponding color.

[0569] The light blocking layer 220 may be positioned between each color filter 230 .

[0570] According to an embodiment, the color filter 230 may be replaced with a color conversion layer or may further include a color conversion layer.

[0571] The color conversion layer may include quantum dots.

[0572] In addition, according to an embodiment, a reflection control layer filling the opening OPBM of the light blocking layer 220 may be positioned instead of the color filter 230 .

[0573] The reflection control layer 235 may have a structure covering the light blocking layer 220, which will Fig.29 review.

[0574] A planarization layer 550 covering the color filter 230 may be positioned on the color filter 230 .

[0575] In this embodiment, the polarizer may not be attached to the top of the planarization layer 550 .

[0576] That is, a polarizing plate (polarizer) is attached to prevent external light from being reflected. In the present embodiment, the opening OPBM of the light blocking layer 220 is formed into a specific structure to reduce the reflection color band problem in which external light is asymmetrically reflected, so there is no need to include a polarizer. However, a polarizing plate may be attached to the planarization layer 550 to further reduce the light reflectivity.

[0577] At the same time, Fig. 22 , the cross-sectional structure of the first component area EA1 is also shown.

[0578] The first assembly area EA1 may be an area in the lower panel layer where the photo sensor area OPS is located, and the first assembly area EA1 may be an area where the pixel defining layer 380 , the light blocking layer 220 , and the color filter 230 are not formed.

[0579] According to an embodiment, the second component area EA2 (see Figure 5 ) may have a light transmission area with Fig. 22 The cross-sectional structure of the first component area EA1 is the same as the cross-sectional structure.

[0580] The first component area EA1 is composed only of a transparent layer so that light can penetrate the first component area EA1, no conductive layer or semiconductor layer is positioned, and the pixel defining layer 380, the light blocking layer 220 and the color filter 230 are not included, and an opening (hereinafter referred to as an additional opening) can be formed at a position corresponding to the light sensor area OPS to have a structure that does not block light.

[0581] Specifically, based on Fig. 22 , the stacking structure of the first assembly area EA1 according to the embodiment is as follows.

[0582] A buffer layer 111 as an inorganic insulating layer is positioned on the substrate 110 , and a first gate insulating layer 141 and a second gate insulating layer 142 as inorganic insulating layers are sequentially positioned thereon.

[0583] In addition, a first interlayer insulating layer 161 , a third gate insulating layer 143 , and a second interlayer insulating layer 162 , which are inorganic insulating layers, are sequentially stacked on the second gate insulating layer 142 .

[0584] Only the first organic layer 181 among the plurality of organic insulating layers is stacked on the second interlayer insulating layer 162 .

[0585] However, according to embodiments, the second organic layer 182 and the third organic layer 183 may be stacked on the first organic layer 181 .

[0586] The functional layer FL may be positioned on the third organic layer 183 , and the cathode Cathode may be positioned thereon.

[0587] The stack structure from the substrate 110 up to the cathode Cathode may correspond to the photo sensor region OPS.

[0588] The encapsulation layer 400 is positioned on the cathode, and the sensing insulating layers 501 , 510 , and 511 are sequentially positioned on the encapsulation layer 400 .

[0589] The encapsulation layer 400 may have a three-layer structure including a first inorganic encapsulation layer, an organic encapsulation layer, and a second inorganic encapsulation layer.

[0590] In addition, all of the sensing insulating layers 501 , 510 , and 511 may be inorganic insulating layers.

[0591] Over the third sensing insulating layer 511 , additional openings of the light blocking layer 220 and the color filter 230 are positioned, and in the first assembly area EA1 , the light blocking layer 220 and the color filter 230 are not formed.

[0592] An additional opening is also located in the pixel defining layer 380 so that the pixel defining layer 380 is not formed in the first assembly area EA1.

[0593] The planarization layer 550 may be positioned on the third sensing insulation layer 511 in the first assembly area EA1 .

[0594] The first component area EA1 and the optical sensor area OPS do not include the metal layer BML, the first semiconductor layer ACT1 (P-Si), the first gate conductive layer GAT1, the second gate conductive layer GAT2, the oxide semiconductor layer ACT2 (IGZO), the third gate conductive layer GAT3, the first data conductive layer, the second data conductive layer, the third data conductive layer and the anode.

[0595] In addition, the light emitting layer EML and the sensing electrodes 540 and 541 are not formed.

[0596] In the first component area EA1 and the light sensor area OPS, additional openings are formed in the pixel defining layer 380, the light blocking layer 220, and the color filter 230 so that the pixel defining layer 380, the light blocking layer 220, and the color filter 230 may not be formed in the first component area EA1 and the light sensor area.

[0597] However, when the optical sensor uses a wavelength other than visible light (eg, a wavelength of infrared light), the light blocking layer 220 may be located in a region corresponding to the first component area EA1 and the optical sensor area OPS and located on the front side.

[0598] In the above, the overall structure of the light emitting display device and the pixel of the light emitting display device has been described in detail.

[0599] In the following, we will Fig.23 and Fig.24 The detailed study is located in the second gate conductive layer GAT2 (see Fig. 22 )The structure around the shielding layer SHL on and the function of the shielding layer SHL.

[0600] Fig.23 is a plan view showing the vicinity of an initialization control line in a light emitting display device according to an embodiment, and Fig.24 It is along Fig.23 A cross-sectional view taken along section line XXIV-XXIV'.

[0601] Fig.23 It is a reference Figures 7 to 21 The shielding layer SHL and an enlarged view of the surrounding structure of the shielding layer SHL among the multiple pixels described in detail include a first semiconductor layer, a first gate conductive layer, a second gate conductive layer, an oxide semiconductor layer, a third gate conductive layer and a first data conductive layer.

[0602] Fig.24 is a cross-sectional view showing the overall stacked structure positioned above and below the shielding layer SHL.

[0603] The shielding layer SHL positioned on the second gate insulating layer is connected to the driving voltage connection electrode FL-SD1 positioned on the first data conductive layer through the opening OP2.

[0604] As reference Fig.16 and Fig.17 As shown in FIG. , the driving voltage is connected to the electrode FL-SD1 (see Fig.23 ) is connected to the driving voltage line 172 located in the second data conductive layer through the opening OP3, thereby transmitting the driving voltage ELVDD (see Figure 6 ).

[0605] Therefore, the driving voltage ELVDD is also transmitted to the shielding layer SHL.

[0606] The shielding layer SHL does not overlap with the first gate conductive layer in a plan view, and overlaps with the first semiconductor layer 130 (see FIG. Fig.15 )'s output current passes through the region and overlaps with the initialization control line 153 of the third gate conductive layer.

[0607] Here, the output current passing region of the first semiconductor layer 130 overlapping with the shielding layer SHL in a plan view is a portion of the first semiconductor layer 130, and refers to Fig.11 and Figure 6The output current passing region of the first semiconductor layer 130 may be a portion located between the channel 1136 of the sixth transistor T6 and the channel 1137 of the seventh transistor T7, and the output current passing region of the first semiconductor layer 130 may be a portion located between the second region (or second electrode) of the sixth transistor T6 and the first region (or first electrode) of the seventh transistor T7.

[0608] Reference Fig.24 In the cross-sectional view, the shielding layer SHL is positioned on the first semiconductor layer 130 (see Fig.15 ) output current passes through the initialization control line 153 between the region and the third gate conductive layer, and the driving voltage ELVDD (see Figure 6 ) is constantly applied to the shielding layer SHL, and the shielding layer SHL can play a shielding role so that the voltage change on one side is not transmitted to the other side.

[0609] Specifically, even if the initialization control signal GI applied to the initialization control line 153 changes, the output current passing region of the first semiconductor layer 130 located below the shielding layer SHL may not be affected by the initialization control signal GI (see FIG. Figure 6 )’s fluctuations.

[0610] The result is transmitted to the light emitting diode LED (see Figure 6 ) has no effect on the change of the initialization control signal GI, and can improve the display quality.

[0611] Reference Fig.23 Since the shielding layer SHL is formed on the second gate conductive layer in the present embodiment, the initialization control line 153 may not have a double-layer structure including the second gate conductive layer and the third gate conductive layer, but may have a single-layer structure including only the third gate conductive layer. Therefore, the fourth transistor T4 connected to the initialization control line 153 is relatively weakly controlled, and thus current leakage may occur.

[0612] However, in this embodiment, the lower shielding layer 4155 is formed as a fourth transistor T4 (see Figure 6 ) is formed in the second gate conductive layer below the channel 4137 and is connected to the initialization control line 153 through the opening OP1. The fourth transistor T4 is also strongly controlled so as to operate correctly and no current leakage occurs.

[0613] That is, since the lower shielding layer 4155 is also connected to the initialization control line 153 through the opening OP1 and receives the initialization control signal GI, the channel 4137 of the fourth transistor T4 is disposed between the lower shielding layer 4155 and the initialization control line 153 in the cross-sectional view. The initialization control signal GI is applied from the positioned initialization control line 153 and the lower shielding layer 4155, so that the fourth transistor T4 is more strongly controlled, so that the fourth transistor T4 operates correctly and current leakage may not occur.

[0614] As a result, each pixel can be appropriately controlled to provide improved display quality.

[0615] At the same time, in the following, reference will be made to Fig.25 and Fig.26 The structures of comparative examples are compared.

[0616] Fig.25 is a top view showing the vicinity of an initialization control line in a light-emitting display device according to a comparative example, and Fig.26 It is along Fig.25 A cross-sectional view taken along the section line XXVI-XXVI'.

[0617] Fig.25 is corresponding to Fig.23 A plan view of a comparative example, and Fig.26 It is along Fig.25 A cross-sectional view taken along the section line XXVI-XXVI'.

[0618] Reference Fig.25 In the comparative example, the initialization control line 153 has a double-layer structure with a gate insulating layer 142 positioned in the second gate insulating layer 142 (see Fig. 22 ) and the lower initialization control line 153a located on the third gate insulating layer 143 (see Fig. 22 ) on the upper initialization control line 153b.

[0619] Since the lower initialization control line 153a is formed on the second gate insulating layer 142, a separate shielding layer SHL is not formed (see Fig.24 ). A portion of the lower initialization control line 153a may be used as a lower shielding layer.

[0620] The biggest difference between the present embodiment and the comparative example is whether the shielding layer SHL is located between the output current passing region of the first semiconductor layer and the initialization control line.

[0621] Reference Fig.26 In the comparative example, due to the initialization control signal GI (see Figure 6) is applied to the lower initialization control line 153a, so when the initialization control signal GI changes, the first semiconductor layer 130 (see Fig.15 ) output current passes through the area not through the shield layer SHL (see Fig.24 ) shielding, and as a result, may be transmitted to the light emitting diode LED (see Figure 6 )’s output current quantity changes.

[0622] As a result, the brightness emitted by the light emitting diode LED may vary, resulting in degradation of display quality.

[0623] In contrast, in this embodiment, the shielding layer SHL is disposed on the initialization control line 153 (see Fig.25 ) and the output current passes between the regions.

[0624] Therefore, since the layer to which the initialization control signal GI is applied is located farther from the output current passing region of the first semiconductor layer 130 than in the comparative example, signal interference may be relatively small.

[0625] In addition, in this embodiment, the driving voltage ELVDD (see Figure 6 ) is located between the initialization control line 153 and the output current passing region of the first semiconductor layer 130, and the fluctuation of the initialization control signal GI does not affect the output current.

[0626] As a result, since the output current delivered to the light emitting diode LED is not affected by the fluctuation of the initialization control signal GI, the display quality can be improved.

[0627] In the following, we will Fig. 27 and Fig.28 The simulation results of the change of the output current according to the change of the initialization control signal GI are reviewed.

[0628] Fig. 27 and Fig.28 It is a view to compare and explain the difference in characteristics based on the comparative example and the embodiment.

[0629] first, Fig. 27 Shown in Fig.23 and Fig.24 Embodiments and Fig.25 and Fig.26 In the comparative example, when the initialization control signal GI (see Figure 6 ) when the voltage in the pixel increases. The peak values ​​of the output current I_Peak_R, I_Peak_G, and I_Peak_B are simulated in pixels displaying red (R), green (G), and blue (B).

[0630] exist Fig. 27 , ①③⑤ represent comparative examples, and ②④⑥ represent embodiments.

[0631] Reference Fig. 27 It can be seen that the fluctuation range of the peak value I_Peak_B of the output current of the blue pixel is not high overall, but in the comparative example, the peak value I_Peak_R of the output current of the red pixel and the peak value I_Peak_G of the output current of the green pixel can be confirmed to have a relatively large fluctuation range.

[0632] A light emitting diode receiving such an output current may gradually change to a normal brightness after emitting strong light, which deteriorates display quality.

[0633] In contrast, in the present embodiment, it can be confirmed that the fluctuation range of the peak values ​​I_Peak_R, I_Peak_G and I_Peak_B of the output current in all colors is not large, and it can also be confirmed that the fluctuation range of the peak value I_Peak_B of the output current of the blue pixel, the fluctuation range of the peak value I_Peak_R of the output current of the red pixel and the fluctuation range of the peak value I_Peak_G of the output current of the green pixel are almost the same.

[0634] In addition, since the range of changes is not large, it is difficult for users to recognize and detect it.

[0635] Therefore, in the present embodiment, it can be confirmed that the display quality is not deteriorated due to the fluctuation of the output current.

[0636] Fig.28 The above differences are shown in the table.

[0637] Fig.28 Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 are distinguished, wherein Comparative Example 1 corresponds to Fig.25 and Fig.26 , and Comparative Example 2 is a case where the shielding layer SHL is not formed in the present embodiment. Fig.23 and Fig.24 Examples in .

[0638] Reference Fig.28 , describes a parasitic capacitance between an output current of the first semiconductor layer 130 and an initialization control line 153 to which an initialization control signal GI is applied.

[0639] Comparing Comparative Examples 1 and 2, it can be seen that the parasitic capacitance of Comparative Example 2 is only about 44% and is reduced by about 56%.

[0640] However, it can be seen that the parasitic capacitance in the present embodiment is only about 21% of the parasitic capacitance of Comparative Example 1, which is reduced by about 79%.

[0641] Due to the difference in parasitic capacitance, the maximum variation values ​​of the peak values ​​I_Peak_R of the output current of the red pixel, the maximum variation values ​​of the peak values ​​I_Peak_G of the output current of the green pixel, and the maximum variation values ​​of the peak values ​​I_Peak_B of the output current of the blue pixel show that the variation values ​​are very small in this embodiment.

[0642] As a result, a change in the brightness of the light emitting diode that may occur in the comparative example does not occur in this example, and the display quality can be improved.

[0643] In the above, Fig. 22 As shown in FIG. 1 , an embodiment in which the color filter layer 230 is formed in the opening OPBM of the light blocking layer 220 is mainly reviewed.

[0644] More specifically, a red color filter, a blue color filter, and a green color filter may be formed in the openings OPBM corresponding to red, the openings OPBM corresponding to blue, and the openings OPBM corresponding to green of the light blocking layer 220, respectively.

[0645] However, a reflection control layer may be used instead of the color filter layer 230, and reference will be made to Fig.29 A stacked structure of an embodiment in which a reflection control layer 235 is applied instead of the color filter layer 230 is described.

[0646] Fig.29 is a cross-sectional view of a light emitting display device according to another embodiment.

[0647] Fig.29 is with Fig. 22 The corresponding cross-sectional view, and in the following, will focus on Fig. 22 The different parts are described.

[0648] The reflection control layer 235 may be disposed on the light blocking layer 220 .

[0649] The reflection control layer 235 may selectively absorb light having a partial band of wavelengths among light reflected inside the display device or light incident from outside the display device.

[0650] The reflection control layer 235 may fill the opening OPBM of the light blocking layer 220 .

[0651] For example, the reflection control layer 235 absorbs light having a first wavelength range of 490 nm to 505 nm and a second wavelength range of 585 nm to 600 nm, so that light transmittance in the first wavelength range and the second wavelength range of 40% or less may be provided.

[0652] The reflection control layer 235 can absorb the light from the light emitting diode LED (see Figure 6) emits light of wavelengths outside the red, green or blue emission wavelength range.

[0653] In this way, the reflection control layer 235 absorbs light of wavelengths that do not belong to the red, green or blue wavelength range emitted from the light emitting diode LED, thereby preventing or minimizing a reduction in the brightness of the display device and displaying an image at the same time, thereby preventing or minimizing a reduction in the luminous efficiency of the display device and improving visibility.

[0654] In one embodiment, the reflection control layer 235 may include an organic material layer including a dye, a pigment, or a combination thereof.

[0655] The reflection control layer 235 includes tetraazaporphyrin (TAP)-based compounds, porphyrin-based compounds, metal porphyrin-based compounds, oxazine-based compounds, as well as squarylium-based compounds, triarylmethane-based compounds, polymethine compounds, anthraquinone-based compounds, phthalocyanine-based compounds, azo-based compounds, perylene-based compounds, xanthene-based compounds, diimmonium-based compounds, dipyrromethene-based compounds, cyanine-based compounds and combinations thereof.

[0656] In one embodiment, the reflectivity measured in a specular component included (SCI) mode on the surface of the reflection control layer 235 may be 10% or less.

[0657] That is, the reflection control layer 235 may improve visibility by absorbing external light reflection of the display device.

[0658] In one embodiment, the reflection control layer 235 may have a transmittance of about 64% to about 72%.

[0659] The transmittance of the reflection control layer 235 may be adjusted according to the amount of the pigment and / or dye included in the reflection control layer 235 .

[0660] According to an embodiment, the reflection control layer 235 may not be located in the first element area EA1.

[0661] Furthermore, in the embodiment including the reflection control layer 235 , a cladding layer AL1 and a low reflection layer AL2 may be additionally formed between the cathode and the encapsulation layer 400 .

[0662] The cladding layer AL1 can be used to improve the luminous efficiency of the light emitting diode LED through the principle of constructive interference.

[0663] The cladding layer AL1 may include, for example, a material having a refractive index of 1.6 or higher with respect to light having a wavelength of 589 nm.

[0664] The coating layer AL1 may be an organic coating layer including an organic material, an inorganic coating layer including an inorganic material, or a composite coating layer including an organic material and an inorganic material.

[0665] For example, the coating layer AL1 may include a carbocyclic compound, a heterocyclic compound, an amine group-containing compound, a porphyrin derivative, a phthalocyanine derivative, a naphthalocyanine derivative, an alkali metal complex, an alkaline earth metal complex, or any combination thereof.

[0666] The carbocyclic compounds, heterocyclic compounds and amine group-containing compounds may be optionally substituted with substituents including O, N, S, Se, Si, F, Cl, Br, I or any combination thereof.

[0667] The low reflection layer AL2 may be disposed on the cladding layer AL1.

[0668] The low reflection layer AL2 may overlap the front surface of the substrate SUB.

[0669] The low reflection layer AL2 may include an inorganic material having low reflectivity, and in one embodiment may include a metal or a metal oxide.

[0670] When the low-reflection layer AL2 includes a metal such as ytterbium (Yb), bismuth (Bi), cobalt (Co), molybdenum (Mo), titanium (Ti), zirconium (Zr), aluminum (Al), chromium (Cr), niobium (Nb), platinum (Pt), tungsten (W), indium (In), tin (Sn), iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), tantalum (Ta), or manganese (Mn), the low-reflection layer AL2 may include zinc (Zn), germanium (Ge), silver (Ag), magnesium (Mg), gold (Au), copper (Cu), calcium (Ca), or a combination thereof.

[0671] In addition, when the low reflection layer AL2 includes a metal oxide, for example, SiO 2 、TiO 2 、ZrO 2 、 2 O 5 , HfO 2 、Al 2 O 3 , ZnO, Y 2 O 3 , BeO, MgO, PbO 2 , WO 3 、SiN x 、LiF、CaF 2 MgF 2 , CdS or a combination thereof may be included as a constituent compound.

[0672] In one embodiment, an absorption coefficient (k) of the inorganic material included in the low reflection layer AL2 may be 4.0 or less and 0.5 or more (0.5≤k≤4.0).

[0673] In addition, the inorganic material included in the low reflection layer AL2 may have a refractive index n of 1 or more (n≥1.0).

[0674] The low reflection layer AL2 causes destructive interference between light incident to the inside of the display device and light reflected from metal disposed under the low reflection layer AL2, thereby reducing external light reflectivity.

[0675] Therefore, the external light reflectivity of the display device is reduced by the low-reflection layer AL2, so that the display quality and visibility of the display device can be improved.

[0676] According to an embodiment, the cladding layer AL1 may be omitted so that the low reflection layer AL2 may be in contact with the cathode.

[0677] The encapsulation layer 400 is positioned on the low reflection layer AL2, and the other structures are the same as Fig. 22 The structures are the same, so the description is omitted.

[0678] Meanwhile, the cathode Cathode formed in the display area may not be formed in the first assembly area EA1, and Fig.29 In an embodiment, a low adhesion layer WAL may be positioned.

[0679] The low adhesion layer WAL may be positioned on the functional layer FL in the first component area EA1 .

[0680] The low adhesion layer WAL is a material having weak adhesion, and according to an embodiment, an upper surface of the low adhesion layer WAL may not have a cathode disposed thereon, or the low adhesion layer WAL may include a material having a property of being a very thin film on the cathode.

[0681] For example, the low adhesion layer WAL is 8-hydroxyquinolate lithium (Liq; [8-hydroxyquinolate lithium]), N,N-diphenyl-N,N-bis(9-phenyl-9H-carbazole-3-yl)biphenyl-4,4′-diamine (N,N-diphenyl-N,N-bis(9-phenyl-9H-carbazole-3-yl)biphenyl-4,4′-diamine; HT01), N(diphenyl-4-yl)9,9-dimethyl-N-(4(9-phenyl-9H-carbazole-3-yl)phenyl)-9H -fluoren-2-amine (N(diphenyl-4-yl)9,9-dimethyl-N-(4(9-phenyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl)phenyl)-9H-fluoren-2-amine; HT211), 2-(4-(9,10-di(naphthalene-2-yl)anthracen-2-yl)phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-benzo-[D]imidazole (2-(4-(9,10-di(naphthalene-2-yl)anthracen-2-yl)phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-benzo-[D]imidazole; LG201).

[0682] Although this specification has shown and described an embodiment in which the low adhesion layer WAL is located in the first assembly area EA1, in other embodiments the low adhesion layer WAL may be removed by a laser process or the like.

[0683] In this case, the laser process may be a laser process performed on a cathode.

[0684] In the first assembly area EA1 , the cover layer AL1 , the low reflection layer AL2 , and the encapsulation layer 400 may be disposed on the low adhesion layer WAL.

[0685] Although the embodiments have been described in detail above, the scope of the inventive concept is not limited thereto, and various modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art using the basic concept of the inventive concept defined in the appended claims are also included in the scope of the inventive concept.
