On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.

[0056] It will also be understood that when a layer is referred to as being "on" another layer or substrate, it can be directly on the other layer or substrate, or intervening layers may also be present. Throughout the specification, like reference numerals denote like components. In the drawings, the thickness of layers and regions are exaggerated for clarity.

[0057] Although the terms "first", "second", etc. can be used to describe various elements here, these elements should not be limited by these terms.

[0076] The data driver 700 may receive the digital video data DATA and the data timing control signal DCS from the timing control circuit 400. The data driver 700 converts the digital video data DATA into an analog data voltage according to the data timing control signal DCS, and outputs the converted analog data voltage to the data line DL. In this case, the pixels PX1, PX2, and PX3 may be selected by the write scan signal of the scan driver 610, and the data voltage may be supplied to the selected pixels PX1, PX2, and PX3.

[0077] The pad area PDA includes a plurality of pads PD arranged in the first direction DR1. Each of the plurality of pads PD may be removed by removing an insulating layer (eg, a cover layer ( Figure 6 The CVL) and polarizing plate (not shown) in the embodiment are exposed.

[0078] The heat dissipation layer 200 may overlap the display panel 100 in the third direction DR3 which is the thickness direction of the display panel 100. The heat dissipation layer 200 may be provided on one surface (e.g., the rear surface) of the display panel 100. The heat dissipation layer 200 serves to dissipate heat generated from the display panel 100. The heat dissipation layer 200 may include a metal layer having high thermal conductivity such as graphite, silver (Ag), copper (Cu), or aluminum (Al).

The circuit board 300 may be a flexible printed circuit board having a flexible material or a flexible film. Figure 1 , the circuit board 300 is shown unfolded, but the circuit board 300 may be bent. In this case, one end of the circuit board 300 may be disposed on the rear surface of the display panel 100. The one end of the circuit board 300 may be an opposite end of the circuit board 300 connected to the other end of the plurality of pads PD in the pad area PDA.

[0084] Reference Figure 4 , the first pixel PX1 may be connected to the write scan line GWL, the control scan line GCL, the bias scan line EBL, the first emission control line EL1, the second emission control line EL2, and the data line DL. In addition, the first pixel PX1 may be connected to a first drive voltage line VSL to which a first drive voltage VSS corresponding to a low potential voltage is applied, a second drive voltage line VDL to which a second drive voltage VDD corresponding to a high potential voltage is applied, and a third drive voltage line VIL to which a third drive voltage VINT corresponding to an initialization voltage is applied. That is, the first drive voltage line VSL may be a low potential voltage line, the second drive voltage line VDL may be a high potential voltage line, and the third drive voltage line VIL may be an initialization voltage line. In this case, the first drive voltage VSS may be a voltage lower than the third drive voltage VINT. The second drive voltage VDD may be a voltage higher than the third drive voltage VINT.

[0085] The first pixel PX1 includes a plurality of transistors T1 to T6 , a light emitting element ED, a first capacitor C1 , and a second capacitor C2 .

[0086] The light emitting element ED emits light according to the driving current flowing through the channel of the first transistor T1. The amount of light emitted from the light emitting element ED may be proportional to the driving current. The light emitting element ED may be disposed between the fourth transistor T4 and the first driving voltage line VSL. The first electrode of the light emitting element ED may be connected to the drain electrode of the fourth transistor T4, and the second electrode thereof may be connected to the first driving voltage line VSL.

The fourth transistor T4 includes a gate electrode connected to the first emission control line EL1, a source electrode connected to the second node N2, and a drain electrode connected to the third node N3.

The fifth transistor T5 is turned on by the bias scan signal of the bias scan line EBL, and connects the third node N3 to the third driving voltage line VIL. Therefore, the third driving voltage VINT of the third driving voltage line VIL may be applied to the first electrode of the light emitting element ED. The fifth transistor T5 includes a gate electrode connected to the bias scan line EBL, a source electrode connected to the third node N3, and a drain electrode connected to the third driving voltage line VIL.

[0092] The sixth transistor T6 may be connected between the source electrode of the first transistor T1 and the second drive voltage line VDL. The sixth transistor T6 is turned on by the second emission control signal of the second emission control line EL2, and connects the source electrode of the first transistor T1 to the second drive voltage line VDL. Therefore, the second drive voltage VDD of the second drive voltage line VDL may be applied to the source electrode of the first transistor T1. The sixth transistor T6 includes a gate electrode connected to the second emission control line EL2, a source electrode connected to the second drive voltage line VDL, and a drain electrode connected to the source electrode of the first transistor T1.

[0093] The first capacitor C1 is formed between the first node N1 and the drain electrode of the second transistor T2. The first capacitor C1 includes one electrode connected to the drain electrode of the second transistor T2 and the other electrode connected to the first node N1.

[0094] The second capacitor C2 is connected between the gate electrode of the first transistor T1 and the second driving voltage line VDL. The second capacitor C2 includes one electrode connected to the gate electrode of the first transistor T1 and the other electrode connected to the second driving voltage line VDL.

[0095] The first node N1 is a contact point of the gate electrode of the first transistor T1, the drain electrode of the third transistor T3, the other electrode of the first capacitor C1, and one electrode of the second capacitor C2. The second node N2 is a contact point of the drain electrode of the first transistor T1, the source electrode of the third transistor T3, and the source electrode of the fourth transistor T4. The third node N3 is a contact point of the drain electrode of the fourth transistor T4, the source electrode of the fifth transistor T5, and the first electrode of the light emitting element ED.

[0096] Each of the first transistor T1 to the sixth transistor T6 may be a metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET). For example, each of the first transistor T1 to the sixth transistor T6 may be a P-type MOSFET, but the exemplary embodiments of the present specification are not limited thereto. Each of the first transistor T1 to the sixth transistor T6 may be an N-type MOSFET. Alternatively, some of the first transistor T1 to the sixth transistor T6 may be a P-type MOSFET, and the other transistors of the first transistor T1 to the sixth transistor T6 may be an N-type MOSFET.

The first to third color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 may be disposed on the adhesive layer ADL.

[0165] The first color filter CF1 may overlap the first light emitting area EA1 of the first pixel PX1. The first color filter CF1 may transmit light of the first color (i.e., light in the blue band). The blue band may be approximately 370 nm to 460 nm. Therefore, the first color filter CF1 may transmit light of the first color among the light emitted from the first light emitting area EA1.

[0166] The second color filter CF2 may overlap the second light emitting area EA2 of the second pixel PX2. The second color filter CF2 may transmit light of the second color (i.e., light in the green band). The green band may be approximately 480 nm to 560 nm. Therefore, the second color filter CF2 may transmit light of the second color among the light emitted from the second light emitting area EA2.

[0167] The third color filter CF3 may overlap the third light emitting area EA3 of the third pixel PX3. The third color filter CF3 may transmit light of a third color (i.e., light in a red band). The red band may be approximately 600nm to 750nm. Therefore, the third color filter CF3 may transmit light of a third color among the light emitted from the third light emitting area EA3.

[0168] Each of the plurality of lenses LNS may be disposed on each of the first color filter CF1, the second color filter CF2, and the third color filter CF3. Each of the plurality of lenses LNS may be a structure for increasing the ratio of light guided to the front of the display device 10. Each of the plurality of lenses LNS may have a cross-sectional shape convex in an upward direction.

[0169] The filling layer FIL may be disposed on the plurality of lenses LNS.

In addition, the filling layer FIL may be a planarization layer. The filling layer FIL may be an organic film made of an acryl resin, an epoxy resin, a phenolic resin, a polyamide resin, or a polyimide resin.

[0170] The cover layer CVL may be disposed on the filling layer FIL. The cover layer CVL may be a glass substrate or a resin such as a polymer resin. When the cover layer CVL is a glass substrate, the cover layer CVL may be attached to the filling layer FIL. In this case, the filling layer FIL may be used to adhere the cover layer CVL. When the cover layer CVL is a glass substrate, the cover layer CVL may be used as a packaging substrate. When the cover layer CVL is a resin such as a polymer resin, the cover layer CVL may be directly applied to the filling layer FIL.

[0171] A polarizing plate (not shown) may be provided on one surface of the cover layer CVL. The polarizing plate may be a structure for preventing visibility degradation caused by reflection of external light. The polarizing plate may include a linear polarizing plate and a phase delay film.

However, when visibility degradation caused by reflection of external light is sufficiently improved by the first to third color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3, the polarizing plate may also be omitted.

[0188] Fig.10 is a plan view of a display device according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0189] like Fig.10 As shown in , the display device 10 may include a first pixel PX1, a second pixel PX2, and a third pixel PX3. The first pixel PX1, the second pixel PX2, and the third pixel PX3 may form a unit pixel. In other words, the unit pixel may include the first pixel PX1, the second pixel PX2, and the third pixel PX3 disposed adjacent to each other.

[0190] The first pixel PX1 to the third pixel PX3 of the unit pixel may be pixels providing light of different colors (or wavelengths). For example, the first pixel PX1 may emit light of a first color, the second pixel PX2 may emit light of a second color, and the third pixel PX3 may emit light of a third color. Here, the first color may be any one of red, green, and blue, the second color may be another color different from the first color among the above red, green, and blue, and the third color may be another color different from the first color and the second color among the above red, green, and blue.

[0191] The first pixel PX1 may include a first pixel electrode AND1 , the second pixel PX2 may include a second pixel electrode AND2 , and the third pixel PX3 may include a third pixel electrode AND3 .

[0192] The first pixel electrode AND1, the second pixel electrode AND2, and the third pixel electrode AND3 may be disposed adjacent to each other. For example, the first pixel electrode AND1 and the second pixel electrode AND2 may be disposed adjacent to each other in the first direction DR1, the second pixel electrode AND2 and the third pixel electrode AND3 may be disposed adjacent to each other in the second direction DR2, and the third pixel electrode AND3 and the first pixel electrode AND1 may be disposed adjacent to each other in the second direction DR2.

[0193] The first pixel electrode AND1 to the third pixel electrode AND3 may have different sizes. For example, the area of ​​the third pixel electrode AND3 may be greater than the sum of the area of ​​the first pixel electrode AND1 and the area of ​​the second pixel electrode AND2. In this case, the third pixel PX3 including the third pixel electrode AND3 may provide blue light, the first pixel PX1 including the first pixel electrode AND1 may provide red light, and the second pixel PX2 including the second pixel electrode AND2 may provide green light. At the same time, as described above, when the third pixel PX3 provides blue light, the first pixel PX1 provides red light, and the second pixel PX2 provides green light, the area of ​​the second pixel electrode AND2 may be greater than the area of ​​the first pixel electrode AND1 and smaller than the area of ​​the third pixel electrode AND3.

[0194] A portion of the first pixel electrode AND1 (e.g., an edge of the first pixel electrode AND1), a portion of the second pixel electrode AND2 (e.g., an edge of the second pixel electrode AND2), and a portion of the third pixel electrode AND3 (e.g., an edge of the third pixel electrode AND3) may be formed by a bank ( Fig.11 In other words, a portion of the first pixel electrode AND1 (e.g., an edge of the first pixel electrode AND1), a portion of the second pixel electrode AND2 (e.g., an edge of the second pixel electrode AND2), and a portion of the third pixel electrode AND3 (e.g., an edge of the third pixel electrode AND3) may partially overlap with the bank PDL.

[0195] The exposed areas of the first pixel electrode AND1, the second pixel electrode AND2, and the third pixel electrode AND3 that are not covered by the bank PDL may be defined as a first light emitting area EA1, a second light emitting area EA2, and a third light emitting area EA3, respectively. For example, the first light emitting area EA1 may be a light emitting area of ​​a first pixel PX1 including the first pixel electrode AND1, the second light emitting area EA2 may be a light emitting area of ​​a second pixel PX2 including the second pixel electrode AND2, and the third light emitting area EA3 may be a light emitting area of ​​a third pixel PX3 including the third pixel electrode AND3.

[0196] Fig.11 It is along Fig.10 1 is a cross-sectional view of a display device according to an exemplary embodiment taken along line II′.

[0197] like Fig.11 As shown in , the display device 10 may include a driving circuit layer DCL, a light emitting element layer EMTL, an encapsulation layer ENC, a color filter layer CFL, a lens layer LSL, and a cover layer CVL.

[0198] The substrate SUB may be a silicon substrate, a germanium substrate or a silicon germanium substrate. The substrate SUB may be a substrate SUB doped with first type impurities.

[0199] The well W may be disposed in the substrate SUB. The well W may be a region doped with a second type of impurity. The second type of impurity may be different from the first type of impurity described above. For example, when the first type of impurity is a P-type impurity, the second type of impurity may be an N-type impurity. On the other hand, when the first type of impurity is an N-type impurity, the second type of impurity may be a P-type impurity.

[0200] The source region S, drain region D, and channel region CH of the transistor TR may be arranged in the well W. For example, the source region S (or source electrode) and drain region D (or drain electrode) of the transistor TR may be arranged in the well W. Each of the source region S and the drain region D may be a region doped with the second type of impurities described above. The gate electrode G of the transistor TR may intersect and overlap the well W. In a plan view, the well W intersecting the gate electrode G may be defined as two regions, and the source region S may be arranged in one of the two regions, and the drain region D may be arranged in the other region. In other words, in the well W, the source region S and the drain region D may be arranged on both sides of the channel region CH, respectively, and the channel region CH is placed between the source region S and the drain region D. The channel region CH of the transistor TR may be arranged in the region of the well W overlapping the gate electrode G. Fig.11 The transistor TR shown in FIG. 1 may be, for example, Figure 4 The fourth transistor T4.

[0201] On the other hand, the source region S may include a first lightly doped region having a relatively lower impurity concentration than other portions of the source region S. In other words, a portion of the source region S may include impurities at a lower concentration than other portions of the source region S. The drain region D may include a second lightly doped region having a relatively lower impurity concentration than other portions of the drain region D. In other words, a portion of the drain region D may include impurities at a lower concentration than other portions of the drain region D.

[0202] The first lightly doped region and the second lightly doped region may be disposed close to the channel region CH of the transistor TR. For example, the first lightly doped region may be disposed close to the channel region CH to overlap with a first spacer (not shown) disposed on one side of the gate electrode G, and the second lightly doped region may be disposed close to the channel region CH to overlap with a second spacer (not shown) disposed on the other side of the gate electrode G. In this way, the distance between the highly doped impurity region of the source region S and the highly doped impurity region of the drain region D may be increased by the first lightly doped region and the second lightly doped region, and as the distance increases, the length of the channel region CH may eventually increase. Therefore, punch-through and hot carrier phenomena caused by a short channel may be prevented.

[0203] An interlayer insulating film INS may be disposed on the substrate SUB.

[0204] The passivation film PAS may be provided on the interlayer insulating film INS.

[0205] The light emitting element layer EMTL may be disposed on the passivation film PAS. The light emitting element layer EMTL may include, for example, a first light emitting element ED1, a second light emitting element ED2, and a third light emitting element ED3 disposed in different light emitting regions. For example, the first light emitting element ED1 of the light emitting element layer EMTL may be disposed in the first light emitting region EA1, the second light emitting element ED2 of the light emitting element layer EMTL may be disposed in the second light emitting region EA2, and the third light emitting element ED3 of the light emitting element layer EMTL may be disposed in the third light emitting region EA3.

[0206] Each of the first light emitting element ED1 , the second light emitting element ED2 , and the third light emitting element ED3 may emit white light.

[0207] The first light emitting element ED1 may include a first pixel electrode AND1 (or a first anode electrode), a light-providing layer LPL, and a common electrode CAT stacked in the third direction DR3. Figure 6 The AND corresponds to the first electrode set on the left.

[0208] The second light emitting element ED2 may include a second pixel electrode AND2 (or a second anode electrode), a light-supplying layer LPL, and a common electrode CAT stacked in the third direction DR3. Figure 6 The AND corresponds to the first electrode set in the middle.

[0209] The third light emitting element ED3 may include a third pixel electrode AND3 (or a third anode electrode), a light-providing layer LPL, and a common electrode CAT stacked in the third direction DR3. Figure 6 The AND corresponds to the first electrode set on the right side.

[0210] Here, the light supply layer LPL and the common electrode CAT may be common layers commonly used for each of the light emitting elements ED1 to ED3. In other words, the plurality of light emitting elements ED1 to ED3 of the light emitting element layer EMTL may share the light supply layer LPL and the common electrode CAT.

[0211] The light-providing layer LPL may include a plurality of light-emitting layers providing light of different colors, and the plurality of light-emitting layers may be stacked along the third direction DR3. White light may be generated by mixing light of different colors from the plurality of light-emitting layers. On the other hand, the light-providing layer LPL may further include a charge generation layer.

[0212] The light providing layer LPL can be Figure 6In this case, the light providing layer LPL may have Figure 6 The same structure of the intermediate layer IL.

[0213] Each of the first pixel electrode AND1 , the second pixel electrode AND2 , and the third pixel electrode AND3 may be connected to each source region S of each transistor TR through the pixel connection electrode PCE.

[0215] A bank PDL (or a pixel defining film) may be disposed on the first pixel electrode AND1 , the second pixel electrode AND2 , and the third pixel electrode AND3 .

[0216] The bank PDL may define each light emitting area of ​​each of the pixels PX1 to PX3 (e.g., the first light emitting area EA1 of the first pixel PX1, the second light emitting area EA2 of the second pixel PX2, and the third light emitting area EA3 of the third pixel PX3). To this end, the bank PDL may be provided to expose a partial area of ​​each of the first pixel electrode AND1, the second pixel electrode AND2, and the third pixel electrode AND3 on the passivation film PAS. The bank PDL may cover the edges of the first pixel electrode AND1, the second pixel electrode AND2, and the third pixel electrode AND3. The bank PDL may be formed as an organic film made of an acryl resin, an epoxy resin, a phenolic resin, a polyamide resin, or a polyimide resin.

[0217] The light-providing layer LPL may be disposed on each of the pixel electrodes AND1, AND2, and AND3 and the bank PDL. For example, the light-providing layer LPL may be disposed on the first pixel electrode AND1, the second pixel electrode AND2, the third pixel electrode AND3, and the bank PDL.

[0218] The PDL can be Figure 6 The bank PDL may have a Figure 6 The pixel definition film PDL has the same structure.

[0219] The light providing layer LPL may include a plurality of light emitting units. For example, the light providing layer LPL may include a first light emitting unit, a second light emitting unit, and a third light emitting unit stacked in the third direction DR3. Each light emitting unit may provide light of different wavelengths. For example, the first light emitting unit, the second light emitting unit, and the third light emitting unit may emit light of different colors. For example, the light providing layer LPL may have a series structure in which a plurality of light emitting units providing light of different colors are stacked in a vertical direction (e.g., in the third direction DR3).

[0220] The first light emitting unit may be disposed on each of the pixel electrodes AND1, AND2, and AND3. The first light emitting unit may include a first light emitting layer, a hole transport layer, an organic material layer, and an electron transport layer.

[0221] The second light emitting unit may be disposed on the first light emitting unit. The second light emitting unit may include a second light emitting layer, a hole transport layer, an organic material layer, and an electron transport layer.

[0222] The third light emitting unit may be disposed on the second light emitting unit. The third light emitting unit may include a third light emitting layer, a hole transport layer, an organic material layer, and an electron transport layer.

[0223] Each of the light emitting elements ED1, ED2, and ED3 can provide white light by mixing light of a first color (e.g., blue) from a first light emitting unit, light of a second color (e.g., red) from a second light emitting unit, and light of a third color (e.g., green) from a third light emitting unit. For example, each of the first light emitting element ED1, the second light emitting element ED2, and the third light emitting element ED3 can emit white light.

[0224] In addition, in addition to the above-mentioned light-emitting units, the light-providing layer LPL may further include at least one charge generating layer. For example, the charge generating layer may be arranged between the light-emitting units adjacent to each other along the third direction DR3. The charge generating layer may include, for example, a first charge generating layer and a second charge generating layer stacked in the third direction DR3. In this case, the first charge generating layer may be arranged between the first light-emitting unit and the second light-emitting unit, and the second charge generating layer may be arranged between the second light-emitting unit and the third light-emitting unit.

[0225] On the other hand, each charge generation layer may include a negative charge generation layer and a positive charge generation layer. For example, the first charge generation layer may include a first negative charge generation layer and a first positive charge generation layer stacked in the third direction DR3, and the second charge generation layer may include a second negative charge generation layer and a second positive charge generation layer stacked in the third direction DR3.

[0226] The common electrode CAT may be disposed on the light providing layer LPL. For example, the common electrode CAT may be disposed on the light providing layer LPL to overlap with the first pixel electrode AND1, the second pixel electrode AND2, the third pixel electrode AND3, the first light emitting area EA1, the second light emitting area EA2, the third light emitting area EA3, and the embankment PDL. In the top emission structure, the common electrode CAT may be formed of a transparent conductive material (TCO) capable of transmitting light (such as ITO or IZO) or a semi-transmissive conductive material (such as magnesium (Mg), silver (Ag), or an alloy of magnesium (Mg) and silver (Ag)). When the common electrode CAT is formed of a semi-transmissive conductive material, the luminous efficiency may be increased by the microcavity. The common electrode CAT may be overlapped with the above-mentioned Figure 6 The common electrode CAT may have a Figure 6 The second electrode CAT has the same structure.

[0227] The cap layer CPL may be disposed on the common electrode CAT. The cap layer CPL may include an inorganic insulating material. In an exemplary embodiment, the cap layer CPL may include aluminum oxide, titanium oxide, tantalum oxide, hafnium oxide, zinc oxide, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, and / or silicon oxynitride.

[0228] The encapsulation layer ENC may be disposed on the cover layer CPL. The encapsulation layer ENC may cover the upper surface and the side surface of the light emitting element layer EMTL, and may protect the light emitting element layer EMTL. The encapsulation layer ENC may include at least one inorganic film and at least one organic film for encapsulating the light emitting element layer EMTL. The encapsulation layer ENC may include one or more inorganic films TFE1 and TFE3 to prevent oxygen or moisture from penetrating into the light emitting element layer EMTL. In addition, the encapsulation layer TFE may include at least one organic film to protect the light emitting element layer EMTL from foreign matter such as dust. For example, the encapsulation layer TFE may include a first encapsulation inorganic film TFE1, an encapsulation organic film TFE2, and a second encapsulation inorganic film TFE3.

[0229] The first encapsulation inorganic film TFE1 may be disposed on the cap layer CPL, the encapsulation organic film TFE2 may be disposed on the first encapsulation inorganic film TFE1, and the second encapsulation inorganic film TFE3 may be disposed on the encapsulation organic film TFE2. The first encapsulation inorganic film TFE1 and the second encapsulation inorganic film TFE3 may be formed as a multilayer film in which one or more inorganic films of a silicon nitride layer, a silicon oxynitride layer, a silicon oxide layer, a titanium oxide layer, and an aluminum oxide layer are alternately stacked. The encapsulation organic film TFE2 may be an organic film made of an acryl resin, an epoxy resin, a phenolic resin, a polyamide resin, or a polyimide resin.

[0230] In addition, the display device 10 may include a plurality of color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 disposed in the emission areas EA1, EA2, and EA3. Each of the plurality of color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 may be disposed to correspond to the emission areas EA1, EA2, and EA3. For example, the color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 may be disposed on the encapsulation layer ENC to correspond to the emission areas EA1, EA2, and EA3.

[0231] The color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 may include a first color filter CF1, a second color filter CF2, and a third color filter CF3 that are respectively arranged to correspond to different light-emitting areas EA1, EA2, and EA3. The color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 may include a colorant (such as a dye or a pigment) that absorbs light in a band other than light in a specific band, and may be arranged to correspond to the color of light emitted from the light-emitting areas EA1, EA2, and EA3. For example, the first color filter CF1 may be a red color filter that is arranged to overlap with the first light-emitting area EA1 and transmits only a red first light. The second color filter CF2 may be a green color filter that is arranged to overlap with the second light-emitting area EA2 and transmits only a green second light, and the third color filter CF3 may be a blue color filter that is arranged to overlap with the third light-emitting area EA3 and transmits only a blue third light.

[0232] A plurality of color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 may be arranged to partially overlap with other adjacent color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3. On the other hand, in the overlapping region between the color filters, the thickness of the overlapping portion of the adjacent color filters may be, for example, 1.5 μm. Here, the thickness of the overlapping portion of the adjacent color filters may be the length in the third direction DR3. In addition, in the overlapping region between the adjacent color filters, the width of the overlapping portion of the adjacent color filters may be, for example, less than or equal to 0.2 μm. Here, the width of the overlapping portion of the adjacent color filters may be the size in the first direction DR1 or the second direction DR2. Different color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 may overlap each other in the region corresponding to the bank PDL, and the overlapping region of the color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 is a region that does not overlap with the luminous regions EA1, EA2, and EA3. In the display device 10, since the color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 are arranged to overlap each other, the intensity of the reflected light caused by the external light may be reduced. Furthermore, by adjusting the arrangement, shape, and area of ​​the color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 in a plan view, the color of the reflected light caused by the external light can also be controlled.

[0233] On the other hand, although not shown, the display device 10 according to the exemplary embodiment may further include a light blocking layer disposed between adjacent color filters (e.g., between the first color filter CF1 and the second color filter CF2 or between the second color filter CF2 and the third color filter CF3) on the encapsulation layer ENC. The light blocking layer may include a plurality of holes disposed in a region corresponding to each of the light emitting regions EA1, EA2, and EA3. For example, a first hole of the light blocking layer may be disposed in a region corresponding to the first light emitting region EA1, a second hole of the light blocking layer may be disposed in a region corresponding to the second light emitting region EA2, and a third hole of the light blocking layer may be disposed in a region corresponding to the third light emitting region EA3. The area or size of the hole of the light blocking layer may be larger than the area or size of the light emitting regions EA1, EA2, and EA3 defined by the embankment PDL. Since the hole of the light blocking layer is formed to be larger than the light emitting regions EA1, EA2, and EA3, the light emitted from the light emitting regions EA1, EA2, and EA3 may be visually recognized by the user not only from the front side of the display device 10 but also from the side surface thereof.

[0234] In an exemplary embodiment, each of the color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 covers the hole of the light blocking layer and has an area larger than the area of ​​the hole, and may have an area spaced apart from other color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 on the light blocking layer. A plurality of color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 may be spaced apart from other adjacent color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3 on the light blocking layer.

[0235] The lens layer LSL may be disposed on the color filter layer CFL. The lens layer LSL may be in direct contact with (or in contact with, or directly connected to) the color filter layer CFL on the color filter layer CFL. For example, the lens layer LSL may be in direct contact with the plurality of color filters CF1, CF2, and CF3. The lens layer LSL may include a plurality of lenses LNS (e.g., a plurality of micro lenses) and a filling layer FIL.

[0236] Each of the plurality of lenses LNS may be disposed on each of the first color filter CF1, the second color filter CF2, and the third color filter CF3. Each of the plurality of lenses LNS may be a structure for increasing the proportion of light directed to the front of the display device 10. Each of the plurality of lenses LNS may have a cross-sectional shape that is convex in an upward direction (e.g., a light emitting direction or a third direction DR3). For example, the distance d (e.g., the shortest distance) between adjacent lenses LNS may be greater than or equal to 0.3 μm. Here, the distance d between adjacent lenses LNS may be a dimension in the first direction DR1 or the second direction DR2. In addition, the thickness tk1 (e.g., the maximum thickness) of the lens LNS may be less than, for example, 1.5 μm. Here, the thickness tk1 of the lens LNS may be the length of the lens LNS in the third direction DR3. In addition, the cone angle θ of the lens LNS may be 60 to 70 degrees. Here, the cone angle θ of the lens LNS may refer to an angle between a tangent line formed at an edge of the lens LNS and a lower surface of the lens LNS (e.g., an interface between the lens LNS and the color filter layer CFL). In addition, the lens LNS may have a refractive index of, for example, 1.61. On the other hand, the thickness tk1 of the lens LNS may be the same as the thickness of the overlapping portion of the adjacent color filters described above. For example, when the thickness of the lens LNS is 1.5 μm, the thickness of the overlapping portion of the adjacent color filters (e.g., the first color filter CF1 and the second color filter CF2) may also be 1.5 μm.

[0237] The filling layer FIL may be disposed on the plurality of lenses LNS. The filling layer FIL may have a predetermined refractive index so that light travels in a third direction DR3 at an interface between the plurality of lenses LNS and the filling layer FIL. In addition, the filling layer FIL may be a planarization layer. The filling layer FIL may be an organic film made of an acryl resin, an epoxy resin, a phenolic resin, a polyamide resin, or a polyimide resin. The filling layer FIL may have a refractive index smaller than that of the above-mentioned lens LNS. In this case, the difference between the refractive index of the filling layer FIL and the refractive index of the lens LNS may be, for example, 0.1 to 0.2. For example, the filling layer FIL may have a refractive index of 1.41 to 1.51. In an exemplary embodiment, the refractive index of the above-mentioned lens LNS may be 1.61, and the refractive index of the filling layer FIL may be 1.51. In an exemplary embodiment, the filling layer FIL may have a thickness tk2 of 3 μm.

[0238] The cover layer CVL may be disposed on the filling layer FIL. The cover layer CVL may be a glass substrate or a resin such as a polymer resin. When the cover layer CVL is a glass substrate, the cover layer CVL may be attached to the filling layer FIL. In this case, the filling layer FIL may be used to adhere the cover layer CVL. When the cover layer CVL is a glass substrate, the cover layer CVL may be used as a packaging substrate. When the cover layer CVL is a resin such as a polymer resin, the cover layer CVL may be directly applied to the filling layer FIL.

[0239] As described above, when the refractive index of the lens LNS is 1.61 and the refractive index of the filling layer FIL is 1.51, the condition that the color gamut of the display device 10 can be improved and the thickness tk2 of the filling layer FIL can be minimized can be satisfied. In other words, when the refractive index of the lens LNS and the refractive index of the filling layer FIL are satisfied, the color gamut of the display device 10 can be improved even if the thickness tk2 of the filling layer FIL is thick. Therefore, the filling layer FIL can be formed to have a sufficient thickness so as not to cause an unfilled defect of the filling material, and a reduction in the color gamut of the display device 10 can be prevented. Here, the thickness tk2 (e.g., the maximum thickness) of the filling layer FIL can refer to the length of the filling layer FIL in the third direction DR3.

[0240] Fig.12 It is along Fig.10 1 is a cross-sectional view of a display device according to an exemplary embodiment taken along line II′.

[0241] Fig.12 The display device 10 and Fig.11 The display device 10 is different in that Fig.12 The display device 10 further includes a buffer layer BF, and this difference will be mainly described as follows.

[0242] like Fig.12 As shown in , the lens layer LSL may further include a buffer layer BF.

[0243] The buffer layer BF may be disposed between the plurality of lenses LNS and the filling layer FIL. In addition, the buffer layer BF may be disposed between adjacent lenses LNS. For example, the lens layer LSL may further include a buffer layer BF disposed between the plurality of lenses LNS and the filling layer FIL and between adjacent lenses LNS.

[0244] The buffer layer BF may have a high surface energy so that the spreadability of the filling layer FIL disposed thereon may be improved. For example, the buffer layer BF may have a surface energy of 60 mN / m or greater. The spreadability of the filling layer FIL may be improved by the buffer layer BF having such a high surface energy, and therefore, while keeping the thickness tk2 of the filling layer FIL low, the film density of the filling layer FIL may be improved. Therefore, even if the thickness tk2 of the filling layer FIL is low, the unfilled defect of the filling material of the filling layer FIL may be prevented. In addition, since the thickness tk2 of the filling layer FIL is reduced, the color gamut of the display device 10 may also be improved. Here, the thickness tk2 of the filling layer FIL may refer to the length of the filling layer FIL in the third direction DR3.

[0245] The buffer layer BF may have a refractive index of 1.4 to 1.7. For example, the buffer layer BF may have a refractive index of 1.4 to 1.7 at a wavelength of 550 nm.

[0246] The buffer layer BF may have a thickness less than When the buffer layer BF has a thickness less than When the thickness tk3 of the buffer layer BF is tk3, the buffer layer BF having the thickness tk3 may have a light transmittance of 85%. Here, the thickness tk3 of the buffer layer BF may refer to the length of the buffer layer BF in the third direction DR3.

[0247] The buffer layer BF may include, for example, SiO x 、SiN y or SiO x N y Here, x may be greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 1. In addition, y may be greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 1.

[0248] The buffer layer BF may be formed using a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method. In this case, the temperature during the process of forming the buffer layer BF may be 70°C to 300°C.

[0249] When the refractive index of the lens LNS is 1.61, the refractive index of the filling layer FIL is 1.51, and the refractive index of the buffer layer BF is 1.4 to 1.7, the conditions that the color gamut of the display device 10 can be further improved and the thickness tk2 of the filling layer FIL can be minimized can be satisfied.

[0250] Fig.13 It is along Fig.10 1 is a cross-sectional view of a display device according to an exemplary embodiment taken along line II′.

[0251] Fig.13 The display device 10 and Fig.11 The display device 10 is different in that Fig.13 The display device 10 also includes a first buffer layer BF1 and a second buffer layer BF2, and the difference will be mainly described as follows.

[0252] The first buffer layer BF1 may be disposed between the first encapsulation inorganic film TFE1 and the encapsulation organic film TFE2. For example, the encapsulation layer ENC may further include a first buffer layer BF1 disposed between the first encapsulation inorganic film TFE1 and the encapsulation organic film TFE2.

[0253] The first buffer layer BF1 may have a refractive index of about 1.4 to about 1.7. The first buffer layer BF1 may have a high surface energy so that the spreadability of the encapsulating organic film TFE2 disposed thereon may be improved. For example, the first buffer layer BF1 may have a surface energy of 60 mN / m or more. The spreadability of the encapsulating organic film TFE2 may be improved by the first buffer layer BF1 having such a high surface energy, and thus, the film density of the encapsulating organic film TFE2 may be improved while keeping the thickness of the encapsulating organic film TFE2 low. The first buffer layer BF1 may have a surface energy of less than 100 mN / m. The thickness is tk4.

[0254] Since the second buffer layer BF2 is Fig.12 The buffer layer BF is the same as that of the second buffer layer BF2, so for the sake of brevity, the description of the second buffer layer BF2 is omitted.
