Abstract
A display device includes a substrate having a first region in which an image is displayed, a second region in which an image is not displayed, and a bending region connecting the first region and the second region. The bending region is configured to bend along a bending axis which extends in a first direction. A plurality of pad terminals is disposed within the second region. A first width of the bending region, measured along the first direction, is narrower than a second width of the second region, measured along the first direction.
Claims21
