Display device and method of manufacturing the same

A method of manufacturing a display device, the method comprising:

• forming a light emitting element on a substrate;
• forming a capping layer on the light emitting element;
• and
• forming an encapsulation layer on the capping layer,
• wherein forming the capping layer on the light emitting element comprises:
• forming a first inorganic layer;
• forming a first flexible layer on the first inorganic layer, the first flexible layer including silicon and carbon;
• and
• forming a second inorganic layer on the first flexible layer,
• wherein a thickness of the first flexible layer is about 80% or more of a thickness of the capping layer.
