Abstract

A display device includes a display region having a plurality of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels including a pixel electrode formed on an insulating surface, the plurality of pixels being arranged in a matrix shape, a bank covering an end of the pixel electrode, an organic layer including a light emitting layer covering respective light emitting regions on the pixel electrodes, an opposite electrode on the organic layer and the bank, and a first inorganic insulating layer on the opposite electrode, wherein each of the opposite electrode and the first inorganic insulating layer has a discontinuous region between the two adjacent light emitting regions.

Claims (25)

1. A display device comprising:

a display region having a plurality of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels including a pixel electrode formed on an insulating surface, the plurality of pixels being arranged in a matrix shape;

a wiring layer between two adjacent pixel electrodes;

a bank covering an end of the pixel electrode and an end of the wiring layer;

an organic layer including a light emitting layer covering respective light emitting regions on the pixel electrodes;

an opposite electrode on the organic layer and the bank; and

a first inorganic insulating layer on the opposite electrode, wherein

each of the opposite electrode and the first inorganic insulating layer has a discontinuous region between the two adjacent light emitting regions,

the discontinuous region exposes a part of the bank, and

the opposite electrode is in contact with the wiring layer at a region which is separated from the discontinuous region.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the discontinuous region surrounds the light emitting region in a planar view.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the display device includes a plurality of discontinuous regions, and

an end of the organic layer is between adjacent two of the plurality of discontinuous regions in the display region.

4. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising

a second inorganic insulating layer on the bank, wherein

the second inorganic insulating layer is divided in a region overlapping the discontinuous region.

5. The display device according to claim 3 , further comprising

a second inorganic insulating layer on the bank, wherein

the second inorganic insulating layer is divided in a region overlapping the discontinuous region,

an end of the opposite electrode is on the side closer to the light emitting region than an end of the second inorganic insulating layer in the display region, and

the end of the organic layer is on the side closer to the light emitting region than the end of the second inorganic insulating layer in the display region.

6. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the insulating surface is on a resin substrate having flexibility.
