Display device including a touch detecting unit having an insulating pattern

A display device comprising:

• a pixel comprising a first electrode, an emission layer, and a second electrode;
• a buffer layer disposed on the pixel;
• a first insulating pattern disposed on the buffer layer and having an island shape;
• and
• a second insulating pattern disposed on the first insulating pattern and having an island shape,
• wherein the pixel, the buffer layer, the first insulating pattern, and the second insulating pattern are disposed in a thickness direction, and
• wherein the first insulating pattern and the second insulating pattern do not overlap the pixel in the thickness direction.

A display device comprising:

• a pixel comprising a first electrode, an emission layer, and a second electrode;
• a buffer layer disposed on the pixel;
• a plurality of touch electrodes disposed on the buffer layer;
• a plurality of first insulating patterns disposed on the buffer layer;
• a first insulating layer covering the plurality of touch electrodes and the plurality of first insulating patterns;
• and
• a plurality of second insulating patterns disposed on the first insulating layer,
• wherein the pixel, the buffer layer, the plurality of touch electrodes, the plurality of first insulating patterns, the first insulating layer, and the plurality of second insulating patterns are disposed in a thickness direction, and
• wherein each of the plurality of touch electrodes overlaps and contacts one of the plurality of first insulating patterns in the thickness direction.
