Abstract
An organic light emitting diode device can have an enhanced thin film encapsulation layer for preventing moisture from permeating from the outside. The thin film encapsulation layer can have a multilayered structure in which one or more inorganic layers and one or more organic layers are alternately laminated. A barrier can be formed outside of a portion of the substrate on which the organic light emitting diode is formed. The organic layers of the thin film encapsulation layer can be formed inside an area defined by the barrier.

A display device comprising:
- a substrate;
- an organic light emitting diode unit in an emission space, the organic light emitting diode unit comprising:
- an insulating layer on the substrate;
- a first electrode on the insulating layer;
- a pixel defining layer on the insulating layer and directly contacting the first electrode;
- an organic emission layer;
- and
- a second electrode;
- a first barrier in a dead space;
- and
- a thin film encapsulation layer on the organic light emitting diode unit,
- wherein the thin film encapsulation layer comprises a first inorganic layer disposed on the organic light emitting diode unit, an organic layer disposed on the first inorganic layer, and a second inorganic layer disposed on the organic layer,
- the organic layer is in an area defined by the first barrier,
- the second inorganic layer overlaps with the first barrier,
- the first inorganic layer and the second inorganic layer extend to and overlap with an edge of the substrate, and
- the first inorganic layer and the second inorganic layer contact with each other between the first barrier and the edge of the substrate.
