Abstract

A display device includes a substrate including a display area and a non-display area, a reference voltage supply line disposed in the non-display area and transmitting a reference voltage, and a driving voltage supply line disposed in the non-display area and transmitting a driving voltage. The reference voltage supply line includes a straight line part extending in a first direction and a curved line part extending from the straight line part to be bent, and the curved line part of the reference voltage supply line is disposed along a periphery of the display area.

Claims (30)

1. A display device comprising:

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

a reference voltage supply line disposed in the non-display area and configured to transmit a reference voltage; and

a driving voltage supply line disposed in the non-display area and configured to transmit a driving voltage,

wherein the reference voltage supply line includes a straight line part extending in a first direction and a curved line part extending from the straight line part to be bent, and

the curved line part of the reference voltage supply line is disposed along a periphery of the display area.

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

a reference voltage connection line extending from the reference voltage supply line in a second direction crossing the first direction; and

a reference voltage line extending in the display area in the second direction,

wherein the reference voltage line is electrically connected to the reference voltage connection line through an opening.

3. The display device of claim 2 , further comprising:

a driving voltage connection line extending from the driving voltage supply line in the second direction; and

a driving voltage line extending in the display area in the second direction,

wherein the driving voltage line is electrically connected to the driving voltage connection line through an opening.

4. The display device of claim 3 , further comprising an oxide semiconductor transistor including an oxide semiconductor layer and a polycrystalline semiconductor transistor including a polycrystalline semiconductor layer.

5. The display device of claim 4 , further comprising a driving transistor,

wherein the driving transistor is the oxide semiconductor transistor, and

a gate electrode of the driving transistor is disposed on the same layer as the reference voltage supply line.

6. The display device of claim 5 , further comprising a flexible printed circuit substrate connected to the substrate,

wherein the reference voltage supply line and the driving voltage supply line are disposed between the flexible printed circuit substrate and the display area.

7. The display device of claim 6 , further comprising:

a gate driver disposed in the non-display area;

an initialization voltage supply line extending in the non-display area in the second direction;

a gate signal output terminal connected to the gate driver; and

a gate signal connection line connected to the gate signal output terminal through an opening,

wherein the initialization voltage supply line is disposed on the same layer as the gate signal connection line.

8. The display device of claim 7 , wherein

pixels adjacent to the curved line part of the reference voltage supply line are arranged in a stepped shape.

9. The display device of claim 8 , wherein

the gate driver and the driving voltage supply line are bent in the same direction as the curved line part of the reference voltage supply line in a region adjacent to the curved line part of the reference voltage supply line.
