A display device includes an input sensor having sensing electrodes disposed in a sensing area and signal lines. Each of the signal lines is connected to a corresponding electrode of the sensing electrodes and disposed in the line area. One signal line of the signal lines includes a first portion having a constant width, a second portion disposed outside a corner area of the sensing area, extending from the first portion, and having a width gradually increasing in a direction that is away from the first portion, a third portion extending from the second portion and having a width gradually varying in a direction that is away from the second portion, and a fourth portion extending from the third portion and having a constant width.

This application claims priority from and the benefit of Korean Patent Application Nos. 10-2018-0109295, filed on Sep. 12, 2018, and 10-2018-0129159, filed on Oct. 26, 2018, which are hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes as if fully set forth herein.
Exemplary embodiments of the inventive concept relate to a display device, and more particularly, to a display device including an input sensor.
Various display devices used in multimedia equipment such as televisions, mobile phones, table computers, navigation devices, and game consoles are being developed. Such a display device includes a keyboard or a mouse as an input unit, and may also include a touch sensor as an input unit.
The accompanying drawings, which are included to provide a further understanding of the invention and are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate exemplary embodiments of the invention, and together with the description serve to explain the inventive concepts.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a display device according to an exemplary embodiment of the inventive concept.
FIGS. 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2D are cross-sectional views of the display device according to an exemplary embodiment of the inventive concept.
In the following description, for the purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of various exemplary embodiments of the invention. As used herein “embodiments” are non-limiting examples of devices or methods employing one or more of the inventive concepts disclosed herein. It is apparent, however, that various exemplary embodiments may be practiced without these specific details or with one or more equivalent arrangements. In other instances, well-known structures and devices are shown in block diagram form in order to avoid unnecessarily obscuring various exemplary embodiments. Further, various exemplary embodiments may be different, but do not have to be exclusive. For example, specific shapes, configurations, and characteristics of an exemplary embodiment may be used or implemented in another exemplary embodiment without departing from the inventive concepts.
Unless otherwise specified, the illustrated exemplary embodiments are to be understood as providing exemplary features of varying detail of some ways in which the inventive concepts may be implemented in practice. Therefore, unless otherwise specified, the features, components, modules, layers, films, panels, regions, and/or aspects, etc. (hereinafter individually or collectively referred to as “elements”), of the various embodiments may be otherwise combined, separated, interchanged, and/or rearranged without departing from the inventive concepts.
The use of cross-hatching and/or shading in the accompanying drawings is generally provided to clarify boundaries between adjacent elements. As such, neither the presence nor the absence of cross-hatching or shading conveys or indicates any preference or requirement for particular materials, material properties, dimensions, proportions, commonalities between illustrated elements, and/or any other characteristic, attribute, property, etc., of the elements, unless specified. Further, in the accompanying drawings, the size and relative sizes of elements may be exaggerated for clarity and/or descriptive purposes. When an exemplary embodiment may be implemented differently, a specific process order may be performed differently from the described order. For example, two consecutively described processes may be performed substantially at the same time or performed in an order opposite to the described order. Also, like reference numerals denote like elements.
