Abstract
Disclosed is a display device. The display device includes a substrate having an active area and a non-active area, a thin film transistor arranged on the active area of the substrate, at least two planarization layers arranged on the thin film transistor, signal links arranged on the non-active area of the substrate, and an outer cover layer spaced apart from the at least two planarization layers and configured to overlap upper and side surfaces of the signal links, thus preventing or reducing damage to the signal links.
Claims8
A display device comprising:
- a substrate having an active area and a non-active area;
- a thin film transistor in the active area of the substrate;
- a first planarization layer that covers the thin film transistor;
- a conductive pad in the non-active area of the substrate;
- a first link electrically connected to the conductive pad in the non-active area of the substrate;
- a second link having a first end electrically connected to an electrode of the thin film transistor in the active area of the substrate and a second end electrically connected to the first link in the non-active area of the substrate;
- and
- a first outer cover layer covering a top and one or more sides of a signal link region where the first link and the second link overlap from a plan view of the substrate,
- wherein the first outer cover layer comprises a same material as the first planarization layer,
- wherein the first outer cover layer is spaced apart from the first planarization layer, and
- wherein the first outer cover layer fully covers the first link and the second link in the signal link region.
