Abstract

In a display device using a substrate having flexibility, a drop in reliability due to defects such as cracks in the case where a substrate is made to curve is controlled. A display device is provided including a first substrate having flexibility, the first substrate including a curved part, an organic film covering a first surface of the first substrate and a second surface opposing the first surface in the curved part; and a pixel part and a drive circuit part arranged on the first surface.

Claims (20)

1. A display device comprising:

a first substrate having flexibility, the first substrate including an upper surface and a side surface intersecting the upper surface;

a pixel part on the upper surface of the first substrate; and

a sealing member entirely covering the pixel part, the sealing member including an upper surface and a side surface intersecting the upper surface, wherein

the first substrate includes a curved part adjacent to the pixel part,

an organic film covers the upper surface of the first substrate at the curved part,

the organic film is in contact with the side surface of the sealing member, and

the organic film is not in contact with the upper surface of the sealing member.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the organic film further covers the side surface of the first substrate at the curved part.

3. The display device according to claim 2 , wherein

the organic film covers the upper surface of the first substrate and the side surface of the first substrate continuously.

4. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

a thickness of the organic film is smaller than that of the sealing member.

5. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

The sealing member doesn't cover the curved part.

6. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprises a wiring part on the upper surface of the first substrate, the wiring part connected to the pixel part, and extending from the pixel part to the curved part, wherein

a part of the wiring part is covered with the sealing member,

another part of the wiring part is exposed from the sealing member, and

the exposed part of the wiring part is located on the curved part.
