Display panel apparatus and method of fabricating display panel apparatus

A display panel apparatus, comprising:

• at least one pixel including a lower electrode, an upper electrode provided opposite said lower electrode, and an organic layer having an organic material provided between said lower electrode and said upper electrode;
• a TFT (thin film transistor) layer formed below said at least one pixel, including a driver that drives said at least one pixel;
• a planarizing film for planarizing an upper surface of said TFT layer;
• an auxiliary electrode formed separately from said lower electrode and electrically connected to said upper electrode;
• a display including a plurality of said at least one pixel;
• an electrode plate formed in a same layer as said lower electrode, electrically connected to said auxiliary electrode, and arranged to cover said planarizing film outside said display, said electrode plate having a hole exposing a part of a surface of said planarizing film;
• and
• an inorganic material layer including an inorganic material located above said electrode plate, and covering said hole, the inorganic material layer being a part of a layer formed between said lower electrode and said organic layer in said at least one pixel.
