Abstract

A display device includes a first substrate, a plurality of pixels on the first substrate, a second substrate on the plurality of pixels, a sealing portion surrounding the plurality of pixels and located between the first substrate and the second substrate, a first wiring extending in a first direction outside the plurality of pixels, and a second wiring partially surrounding the plurality of pixels, in a plane view, in which the second wiring comprises an extension portion arranged in parallel to the first direction between the first wiring and an edge of the first substrate, and the sealing portion fills an area between the extension portion and the first wiring.

Claims (58)

1. A display device comprising:

a first substrate;

a plurality of pixels on the first substrate;

a second substrate on the plurality of pixels;

a sealing portion surrounding the plurality of pixels and located between the first substrate and the second substrate;

a first wiring extending in a first direction outside the plurality of pixels; and

a second wiring partially surrounding the plurality of pixels, in a plane view,

wherein the second wiring comprises an extension portion arranged in parallel to the first direction between the first wiring and an edge of the first substrate, and

the sealing portion fills an area between the extension portion and the first wiring.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein:

the sealing portion overlaps a portion of the extension portion and a portion of the first wiring and comes in contact with a side surface of the extension portion and a side surface of the first wiring, which are arranged to face each other, in an area between the extension portion and the first wiring.

3. The display device of claim 2 , wherein:

an outer edge of the extension portion is located outside the sealing portion.

4. The display device of claim 2 , wherein:

an outer edge of the extension portion is located between the sealing portion and a side of the second substrate, in a plane view.

5. The display device of claim 1 , wherein:

a side surface of the extension portion and a side surface of the first wiring facing each other are located at different heights.

6. The display device of claim 5 , wherein:

a trap having a concave shape is located between the extension portion and the first wiring, and the side surface of the extension portion is located in the trap.

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

a blocking pattern on the second substrate,

wherein the blocking pattern covers a side surface of the extension portion facing the first wiring, in a plane view.

8. The display device of claim 7 , wherein:

the blocking pattern comprises a first region having transmissivity and a second region that is opaque and located at at least one side of the first region, and

the second region covers the side surface of the extension portion.

9. The display device of claim 1 , wherein:

each of the plurality of pixels comprises a thin film transistor and an organic light-emitting device electrically coupled to the thin film transistor.

10. The display device of claim 1 , wherein:

the second wiring has a structure in which a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer are sequentially stacked, the first layer and the third layer comprising Ti and the second layer comprising Al.

11. A display device comprising:

a first substrate comprising a display area, a peripheral area around the display area, and a pad area in the peripheral area;

a second substrate above the first substrate and having an area less than the first substrate;

a sealing portion surrounding the display area and between the first substrate and the second substrate;

a first wiring in the peripheral area and extending in a first direction between the pad area and one side of the display area adjacent to the pad area;

a second wiring partially surrounding the display area; and

a blocking pattern on the second substrate,

wherein the second wiring comprises an extension portion extending in the first direction between the first wiring and the pad area, and

in a plane view, the blocking pattern is located to cover a side surface of the extension portion facing the first wiring, and an outer edge of the extension portion is located between the sealing portion and a side of the second substrate.

12. The display device of claim 11 , wherein:

the sealing portion is located on the extension portion.

13. The display device of claim 11 , further comprising:

a pressure sensing unit on the second substrate,

wherein the blocking pattern comprises a same material as a wiring of the pressure sensing unit.

14. The display device of claim 13 , wherein:

the extension portion is located further outside the blocking pattern, in a plane view.

15. The display device of claim 11 , wherein:

the blocking pattern comprises a first region having transmissivity and a second region that is opaque and is located at at least one side of the first region, and

the second region covers the side surface of the extension portion.

16. The display device of claim 11 , wherein:

the sealing portion fills an area between the extension portion and the first wiring.

17. The display device of claim 16 , wherein:

the sealing portion overlaps a portion of the extension portion and a portion of the first wiring and comes in contact with a side surface of the extension portion and a side surface of the first wiring, which are arranged to face each other, in an area between the extension portion and the first wiring.

18. The display device of claim 11 , wherein:

a trap having a concave shape is located between the extension portion and the first wiring, and the side surface of the extension portion facing the first wiring is located in the trap so as to be located at a height lower than a side surface of the first wiring facing the extension portion.

19. The display device of claim 11 , wherein:

the sealing portion extends along the second wiring covering an outer end portion of the second wiring and comes in direct contact with the second wiring.

20. The display device of claim 11 , wherein:

a plurality of pixels are located in the display area, each of the plurality of pixels comprising a thin film transistor and an organic light-emitting device electrically coupled to the thin film transistor.
