Abstract

An organic light-emitting diode display device includes a substrate, a display unit on the substrate, a touch unit facing the substrate, and a sealing portion surrounding the display unit. The sealing portion couples the substrate to the touch unit and includes glass frit. The touch unit includes an encapsulation substrate, a first conductive layer on the encapsulation substrate, an insulating layer on a portion of the first conductive layer and the encapsulation substrate, and a second conductive layer on the first conductive layer and the insulating layer. The insulating layer of the touch unit includes an organosilicon compound and has a thermal decomposition temperature of about 360° C. or more.
