[0049] Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which the same reference numerals always indicate the same elements. However, the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments shown herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided as examples so that the present disclosure will be thorough and complete, and the aspects and features of the present disclosure will be fully communicated to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, processes, elements and techniques that are not necessary for a complete understanding of the aspects and features of the present disclosure by those of ordinary skill in the art may not be described. Unless otherwise stated, the same reference numerals represent the same elements throughout the drawings and written descriptions, and therefore their redundant descriptions may not be repeated.
[0050] When a specific embodiment can be implemented differently, the specific process order may be different from the described order. For example, two processes described in succession may be performed simultaneously or substantially simultaneously, or may be performed in the reverse order of the described order.
[0051] In the accompanying drawings, for the sake of clarity, the relative size, thickness and ratio of elements, layers and zones can be enlarged and / or simplified. Spatial relative terms, such as "below", "below", "below", "above", "on", etc., can be used in this article for the convenience of explanation, to describe the relationship between an element or feature as shown in the figure and another (some) element or feature. It should be understood that, in addition to the orientation depicted in the figure, spatial relative terms are intended to also cover the different orientations of the device in use or in operation. For example, if the device in the figure is turned over, the element described as "below", "below" or "below" of other elements or features will be subsequently oriented to "above" other elements or features. Therefore, the example terms "below" and "below" can cover both the orientations of above and below. The device can be oriented in other ways (for example, rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptors used herein should be interpreted accordingly.
[0052] In the figure, the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis are not limited to the three axes of the rectangular coordinate system, and can be interpreted in a broader sense. For example, the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis may be perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to each other, or may represent different directions that are not perpendicular to each other.
[0053] It should be understood that although the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, components, regions, layers and / or parts, these elements, components, regions, layers and / or parts should not be limited by these terms. These terms are used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or part from another element, component, region, layer or part. Therefore, the first element, component, region, layer or part described below may be referred to as a second element, component, region, layer or part without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure.
[0054] It should be understood that when an element or layer is referred to as being "on," "connected to," or "coupled to" another element or layer, it can be directly on, directly connected to, or coupled to the other element or layer, or there may be one or more intervening elements or layers. Similarly, when a layer, region, or element is referred to as being "electrically connected" to another layer, region, or element, it can be directly electrically connected to the other layer, region, or element, or it can be indirectly electrically connected with one or more intervening layers, regions, or elements interposed therebetween. In addition, it should be understood that when an element or layer is referred to as being "between" two elements or layers, it can be the only element or layer between the two elements or layers, or there may also be one or more intervening elements or layers.
[0055] The terms used herein are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms "one" and "an" as used herein are also intended to include the plural forms. It should also be understood that the terms "comprises", "comprising", "includes", "including", "has", "have" and "having" when used in this specification specify the presence of stated features, wholes, steps, operations, elements and / or parts, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, wholes, steps, operations, elements, parts and / or groups thereof. As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the relevant listed items. For example, the expression "A and / or B" means A, B, or A and B. Expressions such as "at least one of..." when following a column of elements, modify the entire column of elements rather than modifying the individual elements in the column. For example, the expressions "at least one of a, b, and c" and "at least one selected from the group consisting of a, b, and c" mean only a, only b, only c, both a and b, both a and c, both b and c, all of a, b, and c, or variations thereof.
[0056] As used herein, the terms "substantially," "about," and similar terms are used as terms of approximation rather than terms of degree, and are intended to take into account the inherent deviations in measurements or calculations recognized by those of ordinary skill in the art. In addition, the use of "may" when describing embodiments of the present disclosure refers to "one or more embodiments of the present disclosure." As used herein, the terms "use," "using," and "used" may be considered synonymous with the terms "utilize," "utilizing," and "utilized," respectively.
[0057] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical terms and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present disclosure belongs. It should also be understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having the same meaning as they have in the context of the relevant technology and / or this specification, and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless explicitly defined as such herein.

The scan timing control signal SCS, the emission timing control signal ECS, the digital video data DATA, and the data timing control signal DCS of the driving circuit 440 / timing control circuit 610 may be supplied to the display panel 410 through the circuit board 430. The first driving voltage VSS, the second driving voltage VDD, and the third driving voltage VINT of the power supply circuit 450 may be supplied to the display panel 410 through the circuit board 430.
[0097] Figure 7 is an equivalent circuit diagram of a first sub-pixel according to an embodiment.
[0098] Reference Figure 7 , the first sub-pixel SP1 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 sub-pixel SP1 may be connected to a first drive voltage VSS (see Figure 6 ) and a first driving voltage line VSL to which a second driving voltage VDD corresponding to a high potential voltage is applied (see Figure 6 ) and a second driving voltage line VDL to which a third driving voltage VINT corresponding to the initialization voltage is applied (see Figure 6 ). In other words, the first driving voltage line VSL may be a low potential voltage line, the second driving voltage line VDL may be a high potential voltage line, and the third driving voltage line VIL may be an initialization voltage line. In this case, the first driving voltage VSS may be a voltage lower than the third driving voltage VINT. The second driving voltage VDD may be a voltage higher than the third driving voltage VINT.
[0099] The first sub-pixel SP1 includes a light emitting element LE and a pixel driving circuit PC connected to the light emitting element LE. The pixel driving circuit PC includes a plurality of transistors T1 to T6, a first capacitor C1, and a second capacitor C2.
[0100] The light emitting element LE emits light according to the driving current Ids flowing through the channel of the first transistor T1. The amount of light emitted from the light emitting element LE may be proportional to the driving current Ids. The light emitting element LE may be arranged between the fourth transistor T4 and the first driving voltage line VSL. The first electrode of the light emitting element LE may be connected to the drain electrode of the fourth transistor T4, and the second electrode of the light emitting element LE may be connected to the first driving voltage line VSL. The first electrode of the light emitting element LE may be an anode (e.g., a pixel electrode), and the second electrode of the light emitting element LE may be a cathode (e.g., a common electrode). The light emitting element LE may be an organic light emitting diode including a first electrode, a second electrode, and an organic light emitting layer arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the light emitting element LE may be an inorganic light emitting device including a first electrode, a second electrode, and an inorganic semiconductor arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode. In this case, the light emitting element LE may be a micro light emitting diode.
[0101] The first transistor T1 may be a driving transistor that controls a source-drain current (hereinafter referred to as a "driving current" Ids) flowing between its source electrode and drain electrode according to a voltage applied to its gate electrode.

[0102] The second transistor T2 may be arranged between one electrode of the first capacitor C1 and the data line DL. The second transistor T2 may be turned on by a write scan signal of the write scan line GWL, and connects one electrode of the first capacitor C1 to the data line DL. Therefore, a data voltage of the data line DL may be applied to one electrode of the first capacitor C1. The second transistor T2 includes a gate electrode connected to the write scan line GWL, a source electrode connected to the data line DL, and a drain electrode connected to one electrode of the first capacitor C1.
[0103] The third transistor T3 may be arranged between the first node N1 and the second node N2. The third transistor T3 may be turned on by a control scan signal of the control scan line GCL to connect the first node N1 to the second node N2. Therefore, since the gate electrode and the drain electrode of the first transistor T1 are connected to each other through the third transistor T3, the first transistor T1 may operate like a diode. In other words, when the third transistor T3 is turned on, the first transistor T1 may be connected in a diode manner. The third transistor T3 includes a gate electrode connected to the control scan line GCL, a source electrode connected to the second node N2, and a drain electrode connected to the first node N1.
[0104] The fourth transistor T4 may be arranged between the second node N2 and the third node N3. The fourth transistor T4 may be turned on by the first emission control signal of the first emission control line EL1, and connects the second node N2 to the third node N3. Therefore, the driving current Ids of the first transistor T1 may be supplied to the light emitting element LE. 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.
[0105] The fifth transistor T5 may be arranged between the third node N3 and the third driving voltage line VIL. The fifth transistor T5 may be 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 LE. 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.
[0106] The sixth transistor T6 may be arranged between the source electrode of the first transistor T1 and the second driving voltage line VDL. The sixth transistor T6 may be 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 driving voltage line VDL. Therefore, the second driving voltage VDD of the second driving 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 driving voltage line VDL, and a drain electrode connected to the source electrode of the first transistor T1.
[0107] 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.
[0108] The second capacitor C2 is formed 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 another electrode connected to the second driving voltage line VDL.
[0109] The first node N1 may be 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 may be 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 may be 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 LE.
[0110] 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 (PMOS), but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. As another example, each of the first transistor T1 to the sixth transistor T6 may be an N-type MOSFET (NMOS). As another example, each of some of the first transistor T1 to the sixth transistor T6 may be a P-type MOSFET (PMOS), and each of the remaining other transistors may be an N-type MOSFET (NMOS).
[0111] Figure 7 The first sub-pixel SP1 is shown to include six transistors T1 to T6 and two capacitors C1 and C2, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the number of transistors and the number of capacitors of the first sub-pixel SP1 are not limited to Figure 7 , and various modifications may be made as needed or desired.
[0112] In addition, the equivalent circuit diagram of the second sub-pixel SP2 and the equivalent circuit diagram of the third sub-pixel SP3 can be compared with the above reference. Figure 7 The described equivalent circuit diagram of the first sub-pixel SP1 is the same or substantially the same. Therefore, redundant descriptions of the equivalent circuit diagram of the second sub-pixel SP2 and the equivalent circuit diagram of the third sub-pixel SP3 may not be repeated.
[0113] Figure 8 is a diagram showing a layout of pixels of a display area according to an embodiment.
[0114] Reference Figure 8 Each of the plurality of pixels PX includes a first light emitting area EA1 as a light emitting area of a corresponding first sub-pixel SP1, a second light emitting area EA2 as a light emitting area of a corresponding second sub-pixel SP2, and a third light emitting area EA3 as a light emitting area of a corresponding third sub-pixel SP3.
[0115] Each of the first, second, and third light emitting areas EA1, EA2, and EA3 may have a quadrilateral plane shape such as a rectangle, a square, or a rhombus.
[0116] In the odd-numbered row R_ODD in which some of the plurality of sub-pixels SP1 , SP2 , and SP3 are arranged, the first light emitting areas EA1 and the second light emitting areas EA2 may be alternately arranged along the first direction DR1 .
[0117] In the even-numbered rows R_EVEN in which some of the plurality of sub-pixels SP1, SP2, and SP3 are arranged, the third light-emitting regions EA3 may be arranged at appropriate intervals along the first direction DR1. The length of the third light-emitting regions EA3 in the first direction DR1 may be greater than the sum of the length of the first light-emitting regions EA1 in the first direction DR1 and the length of the second light-emitting regions EA2 in the first direction DR1. For example, in the example shown, the first direction DR1 may be a horizontal direction.
[0118] According to an embodiment, the display panel 410 (see Figure 4 ) may include a reference wiring 1010 extending in the first direction DR1 while surrounding the emission areas EA1, EA2, and EA3 (eg, around the periphery of the emission areas EA1, EA2, and EA3). The reference wiring 1010 is used to connect the intermediate layer IL (see FIG. 1 ) to the display panel 410 during the manufacturing process of the display panel 410. Fig. 9 ) is partially disconnected between the sub-pixels SP1, SP2 and SP3 that are arranged adjacent to each other. Figures 14 to 18 A method of disconnecting the intermediate layer IL using the reference wiring 1010 will be described in more detail. Hereinafter, the reference wiring may also be referred to as a "wiring," "heating wiring," "traversing wiring," or "dummy wiring."
[0119] According to an embodiment, a reference wiring (eg, wiring) 1010 may be included in the display area DAA (see Figure 5 ) and a second reference wiring (e.g., second wiring) 1012 having a second length in the display area DAA. In this case, the first length may be longer than the second length. Therefore, the resistance of the first reference wiring 1011 in the display area DAA may be greater than the resistance of the second reference wiring 1012 because the length of the first reference wiring 1011 may be longer than the length of the second reference wiring 1012.
[0120] The first reference wiring 1011 may be arranged to extend in the first direction DR1 while surrounding the first and second light emitting areas EA1 and EA2 (e.g., around the peripheries of the first and second light emitting areas EA1 and EA2). The second reference wiring 1012 may be arranged to extend in the first direction DR1 while surrounding the third light emitting area EA3 (e.g., around the periphery of the third light emitting area EA3). Since the length of one third light emitting area EA3 in the first direction DR1 may be substantially the same as the sum of the length of the first light emitting area EA1 in the first direction DR1 and the length of the second light emitting area EA2 in the first direction DR1, the first reference wiring 1011 may be longer than the second reference wiring 1012.
[0121] In more detail, the first reference wiring 1011 may include a first portion 811 disposed between the first light emitting area EA1 and the third light emitting area EA3, a second portion 812 extending from the first portion 811 and disposed between the first light emitting area EA1 and the second light emitting area EA2, and a third portion 813 extending from the second portion 812 and disposed between the second light emitting area EA2 and the third light emitting area EA3. The second reference wiring 1012 may include a fourth portion 814 disposed between the third light emitting area EA3 and the first and second light emitting areas EA1 and EA2, and a fifth portion 815 disposed between the third light emitting areas EA3 disposed adjacent to each other.
[0122] The length deviation or variation between the first reference wiring 1011 and the second reference wiring 1012 may be a cause of the resistance deviation or variation between the first reference wiring 1011 and the second reference wiring 1012. The resistance deviation or variation between the first reference wiring 1011 and the second reference wiring 1012 may cause the width and height of the disconnected portion of the intermediate layer IL (e.g., where the intermediate layer IL is disconnected) to be uneven.
[0123] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a metal pattern wiring (eg, pattern wiring) connected to a reference wiring (eg, see Fig.10 1040) and the length deviation compensation section (see, for example, Fig.13 The metal pattern wiring 1040 and the length deviation compensation portion 1111 may be arranged in the non-display area to compensate for the length deviation or change between the first reference wiring 1011 and the second reference wiring 1012 in the display area. For example, when the resistance deviation or change between the first reference wiring 1011 and the second reference wiring 1012 occurs in the display area DAA, since the metal pattern wiring 1040 and the length deviation compensation portion 1111 may be arranged in the non-display area NDA (see Figure 5 ) to compensate for resistance deviation or variation, so from each reference wiring 1010 to the power supply pad (for example, see Fig.10 The total length and total resistance of 1030) can be made uniform or substantially uniform. Fig.10 The metal pattern wiring 1040 will be described in more detail. Fig.12 and Fig.13 The length deviation compensating portion 1111 will be described in more detail. Hereinafter, the metal pattern wiring may be referred to as "pattern wiring", "compensation wiring" or "extension wiring".
[0124] Figure 8It is shown that each of the first light emitting area EA1, the second light emitting area EA2, and the third light emitting area EA3 has a quadrilateral plane shape, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, each of the first light emitting area EA1, the second light emitting area EA2, and the third light emitting area EA3 may have a polygonal plane shape other than a quadrilateral shape, a circular plane shape, or an elliptical plane shape.
[0125] The first light emitting area EA1 may emit light of a first color, the second light emitting area EA2 may emit light of a second color, and the third light emitting area EA3 may emit light of a third color. For example, the first color light may be light in a red wavelength band, the second color light may be light in a green wavelength band, and the third color light may be light in a blue wavelength band.
[0126] Figure 8 It is shown that each of the plurality of pixels PX includes three light emitting areas EA1, EA2, and EA3, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In other words, in some embodiments, each of the plurality of pixels PX may include four light emitting areas.
[0127] In addition, the arrangement of the light emitting regions of the plurality of pixels PX is not limited to Figure 8 For example, the light emitting regions of the plurality of pixels PX may be arranged in a stripe structure in which the light emitting regions are arranged along the first direction DR1, an RGBG structure in which the light emitting regions have a diamond arrangement (eg, structure, is an officially registered trademark of Samsung Display Co., Ltd.), or a hexagonal structure in which a plurality of light-emitting areas having a hexagonal planar shape are arranged.
[0128] Fig. 9 is a cross-sectional view illustrating an example in which a portion of a display panel is cut according to an embodiment.
[0129] Reference Fig. 9 , display panel 410 (see Figure 4 ) includes a semiconductor backplane SBP, a light emitting element backplane EBP, a light emitting element layer EML, an encapsulation layer TFE, an optical layer OPL, a cover layer CVL and a polarizing plate.
[0130] The semiconductor backplane SBP includes: a semiconductor substrate SSUB including a plurality of pixel transistors PTR, a plurality of semiconductor insulating films covering the plurality of pixel transistors PTR, and a plurality of contact terminals CTE electrically connected to the plurality of pixel transistors PTR. The plurality of pixel transistors PTR may be Figure 7 The first transistor T1 to the sixth transistor T6 are described.
[0131] The semiconductor substrate SSUB may be a silicon substrate, a germanium substrate, or a silicon germanium substrate. The semiconductor substrate SSUB may be a substrate doped with a first type of impurity. A plurality of well regions WA may be arranged at (e.g., in or on) the upper surface of the semiconductor substrate SSUB. The plurality of well regions WA may be regions 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. As another example, when the first type of impurity is an n-type impurity, the second type of impurity may be a p-type impurity.
[0132] Each of the plurality of well regions WA includes a source region SA corresponding to a source electrode of the pixel transistor PTR, a drain region DA corresponding to a drain electrode of the pixel transistor PTR, and a channel region CH disposed between the source region SA and the drain region DA.
[0133] Each of the source region SA and the drain region DA may be a region doped with first type impurities. The gate electrode GE of the pixel transistor PTR may overlap the well region WA in the third direction DR3. The channel region CH may overlap the gate electrode GE in the third direction DR3. The source region SA may be arranged on one side of the gate electrode GE, and the drain region DA may be arranged on the other side (e.g., the opposite side) of the gate electrode GE.
[0134] Each of the plurality of well regions WA further includes a first low-concentration impurity region disposed between the channel region CH and the source region SA and a second low-concentration impurity region disposed between the channel region CH and the drain region DA. The first low-concentration impurity region may be a region having an impurity concentration lower than that of the source region SA. The second low-concentration impurity region may be a region having an impurity concentration lower than that of the drain region DA. The distance between the source region SA and the drain region DA may be increased by the first low-concentration impurity region and the second low-concentration impurity region. Therefore, since the length of the channel region CH of each of the pixel transistors PTR may be increased, a punch-through phenomenon and a hot carrier phenomenon that may be caused by a shorter channel may be prevented or substantially prevented.
[0135] A first semiconductor insulating film SINS1 may be disposed on the semiconductor substrate SSUB. The first semiconductor insulating film SINS1 may be formed of silicon carbon nitride (SiCN) or silicon oxide (SiO x )-based inorganic film, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

An upper surface of each of the plurality of contact terminals CTE may be exposed without being covered by the third semiconductor insulating film SINS3. The third semiconductor insulating film SINS3 may be formed of silicon oxide (SiO x )-based inorganic film, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0139] The semiconductor substrate SSUB may be replaced with a glass substrate or a polymer resin substrate such as polyimide. In this case, the thin film transistor may be arranged on the glass substrate or the polymer resin substrate. The glass substrate may be a rigid substrate that is not bent, and the polymer resin substrate may be a flexible substrate that can be bent or folded.

In addition, the light emitting element backplane EBP includes a plurality of interlayer insulating films INS1 to INS10 arranged between the semiconductor backplane SBP, the first to eighth metal layers ML1 to ML8, the reflective electrodes RL1 to RL4, and the light emitting element layer EML.
[0141] The first metal layer ML1 to the eighth metal layer ML8 are used to realize the Figure 7 . In other words, the first to sixth transistors T1 to T6 are formed only at (e.g., in or on) the semiconductor backplane SBP, and the first to sixth transistors T1 to T6 and the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 are connected through the first to eighth metal layers ML1 to ML8.

[0168] The intermediate layer IL may include a first intermediate layer IL1 , a second intermediate layer IL2 , and a third intermediate layer IL3 .
[0169] The intermediate layer IL may have a series structure including a plurality of intermediate layers IL1, IL2, and IL3 for emitting light different from each other. For example, the intermediate layer IL may include a first intermediate layer IL1 for emitting light of a first color, a second intermediate layer IL2 for emitting light of a third color, and a third intermediate layer IL3 for emitting light of a second color. The first intermediate layer IL1, the second intermediate layer IL2, and the third intermediate layer IL3 may be sequentially stacked on each other.
[0170] The charge generation layer may be disposed between the first intermediate layer IL1 and the second intermediate layer IL2. In addition, the charge generation layer may be disposed between the second intermediate layer IL2 and the third intermediate layer IL3. The charge generation layer may include a negative charge generation layer and a positive charge generation layer.
[0171] The first intermediate layer IL1 may have a structure in which a first hole transport layer, a first organic light emitting layer for emitting light of a first color, and a first electron transport layer are sequentially stacked on each other.

[0173] In an embodiment, during a process of manufacturing a display panel, the intermediate layer IL may be disconnected between mutually adjacent sub-pixels SP1, SP2, and SP3 using a reference wiring. According to such an embodiment, leakage current between mutually adjacent sub-pixels SP1, SP2, and SP3 may be prevented or substantially prevented, and color crosstalk may be prevented or substantially prevented. Color crosstalk refers to, for example, a phenomenon in which a red sub-pixel adjacent to a blue sub-pixel is accidentally turned on while the blue sub-pixel emits blue light. Color crosstalk may occur due to leakage current, and may occur when a blue sub-pixel and a red sub-pixel having a large difference in voltage for driving the pixel are adjacent to each other. For example, leakage current may be a phenomenon in which a portion of a driving current is transmitted to a red sub-pixel through at least a portion of a conductive layer of the intermediate layer IL, while a driving current is supplied to a light-emitting element LE of the blue sub-pixel to turn on the blue sub-pixel. When leakage current occurs, the red sub-pixel may be accidentally turned on while the blue sub-pixel is turned on.
[0174] The number of the intermediate layers IL1, IL2, and IL3 for emitting light of different colors from each other is not limited to Fig. 9For example, the intermediate layer IL may include two intermediate layers. In this case, one of the two intermediate layers may be the same as or substantially the same as the first intermediate layer IL1, and the other of them may include a second hole transport layer, a second organic light emitting layer, a third organic light emitting layer, and a second electron transport layer. In this case, a charge generation layer for supplying electrons to one intermediate layer and holes to the other intermediate layer may be arranged between the two intermediate layers.

For example, the first intermediate layer IL1 may be arranged in the first light emitting area EA1, and may not be arranged in the second light emitting area EA2 and the third light emitting area EA3. In addition, the second intermediate layer IL2 may be arranged in the second light emitting area EA2, and may not be arranged in the first light emitting area EA1 and the third light emitting area EA3. In addition, the third intermediate layer IL3 may be arranged in the third light emitting area EA3, and may not be arranged in the first light emitting area EA1 and the second light emitting area EA2. In this case, the first color filter CF1, the second color filter CF2, and the third color filter CF3 of the optical layer OPL described in more detail below may be omitted.
[0176] The second electrode CAT may be arranged on the third intermediate layer IL3. The second electrode CAT may be arranged on the third intermediate layer IL3 in each of the plurality of grooves. The second electrode CAT may be formed of a transparent conductive material (TCO) such as ITO or IZO capable of transmitting light, or a semi-transmissive conductive material such as magnesium (Mg), silver (Ag), or an alloy of magnesium (Mg) and silver (Ag). When the second electrode CAT is formed of a semi-transmissive conductive material, the light emission efficiency in each of the first sub-pixel SP1, the second sub-pixel SP2, and the third sub-pixel SP3 may be improved through the microcavity.
[0177] The encapsulation layer TFE may be arranged on the light emitting element layer EML. The encapsulation layer TFE may include one or more inorganic films TFE1 and TFE3 to prevent or substantially prevent oxygen and / or moisture from penetrating into the light emitting element layer EML. In addition, the encapsulation layer TFE may include at least one organic film TFE2 to protect the light emitting element layer EML 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.
[0178] The first encapsulating inorganic film TFE1 may be disposed on the second electrode CAT.

The first color filter CF1, the second color filter CF2, and the third color filter CF3 may be arranged on the adhesive layer ADL.
[0181] The first color filter CF1 may overlap the first emission area EA1 of the first subpixel SP1. The first color filter CF1 may transmit light of the first color, or in other words, transmit light in a blue wavelength band. The blue wavelength band may be about 370nm to 460nm. Therefore, the first color filter CF1 may transmit light of the first color among the light emitted from the first emission area EA1.
[0182] The second color filter CF2 may overlap with the second emission area EA2 of the second sub-pixel SP2. The second color filter CF2 may transmit light of the second color, or in other words, transmit light in a green wavelength band. The green wavelength band may be about 480nm to 560nm. Therefore, the second color filter CF2 may transmit light of the second color among the light emitted from the second emission area EA2.
[0183] The third color filter CF3 may overlap with the third light emitting area EA3 of the third sub-pixel SP3. The third color filter CF3 may transmit light of a third color, or in other words, transmit light in a red wavelength band. The red wavelength band may be about 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.
[0184] Each of the plurality of lenses LNS may be disposed on a corresponding one 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 used to increase the pointing display device 10 (see Figure 4 Each of the plurality of lenses LNS may have a cross-sectional shape convex in an upward direction.
[0185] The filling layer FIL may be arranged on the plurality of lenses LNS. The filling layer FIL may have a suitable refractive index (e.g., a predetermined refractive index) so that light travels in the third direction DR3 at the 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 including (e.g., made of) acrylic resin, epoxy resin, phenolic resin, polyamide resin, or polyimide resin.
[0186] The cover layer CVL may be arranged on the filling layer FIL. The cover layer CVL may be a glass substrate or 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 for bonding to 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 polymer resin, the cover layer CVL may be directly applied to the filling layer FIL.
[0187] The polarizing plate may be arranged on one surface of the cover layer CVL. The polarizing plate may be a structure for preventing or substantially preventing degradation of visibility due to reflection of external light. The polarizing plate may include a linear polarizing plate and a phase retardation film. For example, the phase retardation film may be a λ / 4 (quarter wavelength) wave plate, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. However, when degradation of visibility due to reflection of external light is sufficiently improved by the first color filter CF1, the second color filter CF2, and the third color filter CF3, the polarizing plate may be omitted.
[0188] Fig.10 is a plan view showing the arrangement of first electrodes of sub-pixels according to an embodiment.
[0189] Reference Fig.10 , a plurality of sub-pixels SP1, SP2 and SP3 (see Fig. 9) may have a hexagonal shape in a plan view. For example, each of the first electrodes AND may have a hexagonal shape and be arranged at appropriate intervals along the first direction DR1.
[0190] The display panel 410 may include a reference wiring 1010 including a first reference wiring 1011 and a second reference wiring 1012. The first reference wiring 1011 may extend in a first direction DR1 while crossing between the first electrodes AND and may have a first length in the display area DAA. The second reference wiring 1012 may have a second length in the display area DAA.
[0191] The first reference wiring 1011 may be arranged to cross between the first electrode AND of the 2n-1th row R_2n-1 and the first electrode AND of the 2nth row R_2n in the first direction DR1, where n is a natural number greater than 0. For example, the first reference wiring 1011 may be an odd-numbered wiring among the reference wirings 1010 .
[0192] The second reference wiring 1012 may be arranged to cross between the first electrode AND of the 2nth row R_2n and the first electrode AND of the 2n+1th row R_2n+1 in the first direction DR1 . For example, the second reference wiring 1012 may be an even-numbered wiring among the reference wirings 1010 .
[0193] According to an embodiment, each of the first electrodes AND has a hexagonal shape and may include a protrusion AND_P protruding in the direction of the first reference wiring 1011. The protrusion AND_P of the first electrode AND may be a portion in which a connection to the light emitting element back plate EBP (see Fig. 9 ) of the contact hole.
[0194] Since the first reference wiring 1011 may be arranged to cross between the first electrode AND of the 2n-1th row R_2n-1 and the first electrode AND of the 2nth row R_2n in the first direction DR1, the first electrodes AND of the odd-numbered rows R_2n-1 and R_2n+1 may have protrusions AND_P formed in the second direction DR2 perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the first direction DR1, and the first electrodes AND of the even-numbered rows R_2n may have protrusions AND_P formed in the fourth direction DR4 opposite to the second direction DR2. Since the first reference wiring 1011 extends in the first direction DR1 while crossing between the protrusions AND_P, the length of the first reference wiring 1011 may be longer than that of the second reference wiring 1012.
[0195] According to an embodiment, a metal pattern wiring 1040 connecting the reference wiring 1010 and the power supply pad 1030 to each other is arranged in the non-display area NDA. The metal pattern wiring 1040 may be used to convert the Joule heating voltage V applied to the power supply pad 1030 to Heat or Joule heating current I Heat The metal pattern wiring 1040 may include a first metal pattern wiring (eg, a third wiring) 1041 connected to the first reference wiring 1011 and a second metal pattern wiring (eg, a fourth wiring) 1042 connected to the second reference wiring 1012 .
[0196] The first metal pattern wiring 1041 may extend to have a straight line or a substantially straight line in a plan view.
[0197] Since at least a portion of the second metal pattern wiring 1042 may have a zigzag shape in a plan view, the length of the second metal pattern wiring 1042 may be longer than the length of the first metal pattern wiring 1041. For example, the first metal pattern wiring 1041 may have a third length, and the second metal pattern wiring 1042 may have a fourth length longer than the third length. Since at least a portion of the second metal pattern wiring 1042 may be arranged in a zigzag shape in a plan view, the second metal pattern wiring 1042 may have a fourth length longer than the third length.
[0198] However, the shape of the portion of the second metal pattern wiring 1042 having a zigzag shape in a plan view is provided as an example, and the shape of the second metal pattern wiring 1042 may be variously modified as needed or desired. For example, at least a portion of the second metal pattern wiring 1042 may be arranged to have a specific pattern in a plan view, and the specific pattern may be variously modified to various suitable shapes as needed or desired. In other words, the zigzag shape of the second metal pattern wiring 1042 is provided only as an example of a specific pattern, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
[0199] A first total length obtained by adding the first length of the first reference wiring 1011 and the third length of the first metal pattern wiring 1041 to each other may be equal to or substantially equal to a second total length obtained by adding the second length of the second reference wiring 1012 and the fourth length of the second metal pattern wiring 1042 to each other. Therefore, a resistance deviation or change between the first reference wiring 1011 and the second reference wiring 1012 that may occur in the display area DAA may be compensated.
[0200] According to an embodiment, one end of the reference wiring 1010 may be connected to the power pad 1030 through the metal pattern wiring 1040, and the other end (e.g., the opposite end) of the reference wiring 1010 may be connected to the ground pad 1050 through the ground wiring 1060. For example, the power pad 1030 may be arranged at one end of the non-display area NDA, and the ground pad 1050 may be arranged at the other end of the non-display area NDA. Like the metal pattern wiring 1040, the ground wiring 1060 may be arranged in a zigzag shape to compensate for the resistance deviation or change between the first reference wiring 1011 and the second reference wiring 1012. In more detail, the power pad 1030 may be arranged at one end of the non-display area NDA adjacent to one end of the reference wiring 1010. The other end of the non-display area NDA adjacent to the other end of the reference wiring 1010 may include a first ground wiring 1061 and a second ground wiring 1062 connecting the ground pad 1050 and the reference wiring 1010 to each other.
[0201] The first ground wiring 1061 may be connected to the first reference wiring 1011 and may extend in a straight line or substantially in a straight line. The second ground wiring 1062 may be connected to the second reference wiring 1012 and may extend in a zigzag shape. Unlike the first ground wiring 1061, since the second ground wiring 1062 may be arranged in a zigzag shape, its resistance may be relatively high. The resistance deviation or change between the first ground wiring 1061 and the second ground wiring 1062 may be designed to compensate for the resistance deviation or change between the first reference wiring 1011 and the second reference wiring 1012.
