Light emitting element, display device including the same, and method for manufacturing the display device

A display device comprising:

• a substrate;
• at least one first electrode and at least one second electrode extending in a first direction on the substrate and spaced apart from each other in a second direction different from the first direction;
• at least one light emitting element in a separation space between the first electrode and the second electrode;
• a first contact electrode partially covering the first electrode and contacting a first end of the light emitting element;
• and
• a second contact electrode spaced apart from the first contact electrode and partially covering the second electrode to contact a second end opposite to the first end of the light emitting element,
• wherein the light emitting element comprises an element rod and an insulating material layer surrounding an outer peripheral surface of the element rod, and the insulating material layer comprises an insulating material film and an element orienter bonded to an outer peripheral surface of the insulating material film.

A method for manufacturing a display device, comprising:

• providing a base substrate comprising a substrate, at least one first electrode and at least one second electrode spaced apart from each other on the substrate, and an insulating layer covering the first electrode and the second electrode;
• applying a coating solution in which light emitting elements are dispersed onto the first electrode and the second electrode of the base substrate;
• and
• aligning the light emitting elements between the first electrode and the second electrode by forming an electric field between the first electrode and the second electrode.
