Abstract
A display device according to an embodiment may include a base layer including a first surface and a second surface, a pixel circuit layer including a first line on the first surface, a display element layer on the pixel circuit layer and including a display element, a thin film encapsulation layer on the display element layer, a first protective layer on the thin film encapsulation layer, and a second line on the second surface to correspond to the first line. The first protective layer may include a transparent insulating material.
Claims20
A display device comprising:
- a base layer having a first surface and a second surface;
- a pixel circuit layer comprising a first line on the first surface;
- a display element layer on the pixel circuit layer and comprising a display element;
- a thin film encapsulation layer on the display element layer;
- a first protective layer on the thin film encapsulation layer;
- and
- a second line on the second surface to correspond to the first line,
- wherein the first protective layer comprises a transparent insulating material.
A method of manufacturing a display device, the method comprising:
- preparing a base layer in which a base hole area is defined, and irradiating a laser to the base hole area;
- filling a conductive material in the base hole irradiated with the laser;
- attaching a first surface protective film to a first surface of the base layer, and attaching a second surface protective film to a second surface of the base layer;
- removing the first surface protective film, and sequentially forming, on the first surface of the base layer, a circuit element layer comprising a first line, a display element layer, and a thin film encapsulation layer;
- forming a first protective layer and a second protective layer on the thin film encapsulation layer;
- rotating the base layer upside down and removing the second surface protective film, and forming a second line on the second surface of the base layer;
- and
- rotating the base layer upside down and removing the second protective layer.
