Display device including electrode patterns and method of fabricating the same

A display device comprising:

• a substrate;
• an electrode layer on the substrate and comprising a first electrode, a first electrode pattern spaced apart from the first electrode, a second electrode between the first electrode and the first electrode pattern, and a second electrode pattern between the first electrode and the second electrode;
• a plurality of light-emitting elements on the electrode layer and comprising a first light-emitting element and a second light-emitting element, wherein both ends of the first light-emitting element are on the first electrode and the second electrode pattern, respectively, and wherein both ends of the second light-emitting element are on the second electrode and the first electrode pattern, respectively;
• a first contact electrode on the first electrode to overlap the first electrode and in contact with a first end of the first light-emitting element;
• a second contact electrode on the second electrode to overlap the second electrode and in contact with a first end of the second light-emitting element;
• a third contact electrode on the electrode layer and comprising a first area, a second area, and a third area, wherein the first area overlaps the second electrode pattern and is in contact with a second end of the first light-emitting element, the second area overlaps the first electrode pattern and is in contact with a second end of the second light-emitting element, and the third area couples the first area with the second area;
• an insulating layer on the third contact electrode;
• and
• a first pattern on the third area,
• wherein the insulating layer covers the first area and the second area and exposes at least a part of the third area.
