Display device

A display device comprising:

• a first substrate;
• a second substrate facing the first substrate;
• a first spacer disposed along edge areas of the first and second substrates;
• a recess part disposed between a side surface of the first substrate and a side surface of the second substrate;
• a connection pad disposed on the first substrate and exposed by the recess part;
• and
• a connecting pad contacting the connection pad inside the recess part,
• wherein:
• the side surface of the first substrate and the side surface of the second substrate are aligned with each other in a first direction which is perpendicular to a top surface of the first substrate and a top surface of the second substrate;
• the first spacer is spaced apart from the first substrate and the second substrate by a first distance in a direction toward inner sides of the first and second substrates;
• the connection pad comprises a first surface facing the first substrate, a second surface opposite to the first surface, a first side surface between the first surface and the second surface, and a second side surface opposite to the first side surface;
• the first side surface of the connection pad is disposed below the first spacer and overlaps the first spacer;
• the second side surface of the connection pad directly contacts the connecting pad;
• a second spacer is disposed directly on the first spacer;
• both of the first spacer and the second spacer directly contact the connecting pad;
• the display device further comprises:
• a connection wire disposed between the first substrate and the connection pad;
• and
• an insulating layer disposed between the connection wire and the connection pad;
• the insulating layer includes a contact hole which exposes the connection wire;
• and
• the connection pad contacts the connection wire through the contact hole.
