Abstract

A display device includes a substrate including a display area and a non-display area surrounding the display area, a conductive pattern disposed on the substrate in the non-display area and including an opening pattern and a light blocking member disposed in the non-display area on the conductive pattern and including an opening disposed in an area overlapping the opening pattern, wherein the opening pattern and the opening may constitute alignment marks in the non-display area.

Claims (45)

1 . A display device comprising:

a substrate including a display area and a non-display area surrounding the display area;

a conductive pattern disposed on the substrate in the non-display area and including an opening pattern; and

a light blocking member disposed in the non-display area on the conductive pattern and including an opening disposed in an area overlapping the opening pattern,

wherein the opening pattern and the opening are formed in a same side with respect to the substrate and define alignment marks in the non-display area.

2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the opening pattern includes convex portions and concave portions disposed between the convex portions.

3 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the alignment marks has an intaglio shape, and the intaglio shape has one of a rectangle, a triangle, and a rhombus shape in a plan view.

4 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the light blocking member includes at least one of carbon black, a black pigment, or a black dye.

5 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a first protruding member disposed on the substrate in the non-display area, overlapping the conductive pattern, and surrounding the display area.

6 . The display device of claim 5 , wherein the light blocking member is disposed on the first protruding member and the opening is disposed in an area overlapping the first protruding member.

7 . The display device of claim 5 , further comprising:

a second protruding member disposed on the substrate in the non-display area and surrounding the first protruding member.

8 . The display device of claim 7 , wherein the opening pattern is disposed between the first protruding member and the second protruding member in a plan view.

9 . The display device of claim 7 , wherein the opening is disposed in an area overlapping an area disposed between the first protruding member and the second protruding member in the non-display area in a plan view.

10 . The display device of claim 7 , wherein the light blocking member is disposed on the second protruding member and overlaps the second protruding member.

11 . The display device of claim 7 , wherein the first protruding member includes a first sub-protruding member disposed on the substrate and a second sub-protruding member disposed on the first sub-protruding member, and

wherein the light blocking member is disposed between the first sub-protruding member and the second sub-protruding member on the conductive pattern.

12 . The display device of claim 7 , wherein the second protruding member includes a third sub-protruding member disposed on the substrate and a fourth sub-protruding member disposed on the third sub-protruding member, and

wherein the light blocking member is disposed between the third sub-protruding member and the fourth sub-protruding member.

13 . A display device comprising:

a substrate including a display area and a non-display area surrounding the display area;

a conductive pattern disposed on the substrate in the non-display area and including an opening pattern;

a light blocking member disposed in the non-display area on the conductive pattern and including an opening disposed in an area overlapping the opening pattern; and

a first protruding member disposed on the substrate in the non-display area, overlapping the conductive pattern, and surrounding the display area,

wherein the opening pattern and the opening constitute alignment marks in the non-display area, and

wherein the conductive pattern further includes a sub-opening pattern disposed in an area overlapping the first protruding member.

14 . A display device comprising:

a substrate including a display area and a non-display area surrounding the display area;

a conductive pattern disposed on the substrate in the non-display area and including an opening pattern;

a first light blocking member disposed in the non-display area and on the conductive pattern; and

a second light blocking member disposed in the non-display area, on the first light blocking member, and defining an opening with the first light blocking member in a plan view,

wherein the opening is disposed in an area overlapping the opening pattern, and

the opening pattern and the opening are formed in a same side with respect to the substrate.

15 . The display device of claim 14 , further comprising:

a first protruding member disposed on the substrate in the non-display area, overlapping the conductive pattern, and surrounding the display area; and

a second protruding member disposed on the substrate in the non-display area and surrounding the first protruding member.

16 . The display device of claim 15 , wherein the opening pattern includes convex portions and concave portions disposed between the convex portions, and

wherein the convex portions and the concave portions are disposed between the first light blocking member and the second light blocking member in a plan view.

17 . The display device of claim 16 , wherein the concave portions and the first light blocking member constitute alignment marks in the non-display area.

18 . The display device of claim 17 , wherein the opening is disposed in an area overlapping the alignment marks, and

wherein the first light blocking member overlaps the second protruding member.

19 . The display device of claim 16 , wherein the concave portions included in the conductive pattern and the second light blocking member constitute alignment marks in the non-display area.

20 . The display device of claim 19 , wherein the opening is disposed in an area overlapping the alignment marks, and

wherein the second light blocking member overlaps the second protruding member.
