Flat display device with a dummy pixel integrally formed in a peripheral region

A flat display device comprising:

• a substrate divided into an active region for displaying an image and a peripheral region that does not display the image and around the active region;
• a gate line that crosses a data line to define a pixel region in the active region;
• a thin film transistor in a region near a crossing of the gate line and the data line;
• a first common electrode in the pixel region;
• a storage electrode on the first common electrode to provide storage capacitance;
• a pixel electrode electrically connected with the storage electrode and overlapping the pixel region, the data line, and the gate line;
• and
• an ink film covering the active region and the peripheral region, the ink film including microcapsules including charged particles,
• wherein the peripheral region includes:
• a plurality of dummy pixel regions in the peripheral region, each defined by crossings of a gate line and a dummy data line,
• wherein each dummy pixel region includes:
• a dummy common electrode in the dummy pixel region;
• a dummy storage electrode overlapping the dummy common electrode and branched directly from the dummy data line;
• and
• a dummy pixel electrode electrically contacting the dummy storage electrode,
• wherein the dummy pixel electrode is integrally formed with each other in all of the dummy pixel regions of the peripheral region.
