Abstract
A display device may include a substrate, pixels, and a crack mitigation structure. The substrate may include a main region, a sub-region, and a bending region. The bending region may be connected between the main region and the sub-region and may include a curved outline section. The pixels may be disposed on the main region. The crack mitigation structure may be disposed on the bending region. A section of the crack mitigation structure may be substantially parallel to the curved outline section.
Claims4
A method for manufacturing a display device, the method comprising:
- forming an insulating layer on a substrate, wherein the substrate comprises a main region and a neighboring region, wherein the neighboring region is directly connected to the main region, wherein the insulating layer comprises a first insulating section and a second insulating section, wherein the first insulating section overlaps the main region, and wherein the second insulating section overlaps the neighboring region;
- forming transistors that overlap the first insulating section;
- etching at least the second insulating section to form dams, wherein each of the dams comprises a portion of the second insulating section;
- and
- cutting the neighboring region at a location between two of the dams to form a bending region, wherein the bending region comprises a curved outline section.
