Abstract
A flexible display device includes a flexible substrate, an adhesion layer disposed on a surface of the flexible substrate, and a plurality of pixel structures in respective pixels on the adhesion layer. Each of the pixel structures on the adhesion layer includes a light emitting diode including an inorganic light emitting layer, and a thin film transistor which is connected to the light emitting diode and switches a state of the light emitting diode.
Claims7
A flexible display device comprising:
- a flexible substrate;
- an adhesion layer disposed on a surface of the flexible substrate;
- and
- a pixel structure provided in plurality disposed in respective pixels on the adhesion layer,
- wherein
- each of the pixel structures on the adhesion layer comprises directly contacting the same adhesion layer disposed on the surface of the flexible substrate:
- a light emitting diode including an inorganic light emitting layer;
- a thin film transistor which is connected to the light emitting diode and switches a state of the light emitting diode;
- and
- a conductive signal line connected to the pixel structure, and
- wherein the flexible substrate having the same adhesion layer directly contacted by the thin film transistor and the light emitting diode, is stretchable such that when applied with a force in a first direction to enlarge a planar area thereof, the conductive signal line which is connected to the pixel structure is formable in a first shape elongated in the first direction and shrinkable in a reverse direction to the first direction from the first shape to a second shape different from the first shape.
