Abstract

A display device includes: a substrate comprising a first layer and a second layer; a first display area including a first pixel area on the substrate; a second display area including a second pixel area and a transparent area adjacent to each other on the substrate; and a blocking layer disposed in the second pixel area of the second display area, and disposed between a first layer and a second layer of the substrate in a side view, and the blocking layer including a metal blocks light.

Claims (60)

1. A display device comprising:

a substrate comprising a first layer and a second layer;

a first display area including a first pixel area on the substrate;

a second display area including a second pixel area and a transparent area adjacent to each other on the substrate; and a blocking layer disposed in the second pixel area of the second display area, and disposed between the first layer and the second layer of the substrate in a side view,

wherein the blocking layer including a metal blocks light.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the substrate further includes:

a barrier layer disposed between the first layer and the second layer; and

wherein the first layer, the second layer and the barrier layer are disposed in the first display area and the second display area, and

the blocking layer is not disposed in the transparent area of the second display area.

3. The display device of claim 2 , further comprising

an optical device overlapping the second display area, and

wherein the optical device is disposed under the second layer in a side view.

4. The display device of claim 3 , wherein

the blocking layer has a thickness of about 100 Å or less.

5. The display device of claim 2 , wherein

the second display area further includes a wiring area disposed at an edge of the transparent area, and

the blocking layer is disposed in the wiring area.

6. The display device of claim 2 , wherein

the blocking layer is disposed between the barrier layer and the second layer.

7. The display device of claim 6 , wherein

the second layer is not disposed in the transparent area.

8. The display device of claim 2 , wherein

the blocking layer is disposed between the first layer and the barrier layer.

9. The display device of claim 2 , wherein

a pixel density of the second display area is smaller than a pixel density of the first display area.

10. The display device of claim 2 , wherein

each of the first pixel area and the second pixel area includes at least one pixel, and

the at least one pixel includes an organic light emitting element.

11. The display device of claim 10 , wherein

the first pixel area and the second pixel area include a plurality of insulating layers disposed on the substrate, and

the plurality of insulating layers is not disposed in the transparent area.

12. The display device of claim 1 , wherein

the blocking layer includes a metal.

13. The display device of claim 12 , wherein

the blocking layer has a thickness of about 100 Å or less.

14. The display device of claim 1 , wherein

the second display area further includes a wiring area disposed at an edge of the transparent area, and

the blocking layer is disposed in the wiring area.

15. The display device of claim 1 , wherein

a pixel density of the second display area is smaller than a pixel density of the first display area.

16. The display device of claim 1 , wherein

each of the first pixel area and the second pixel area includes a pixel, and

the pixel includes an organic light emitting element.

17. The display device of claim 16 , wherein

the first pixel area and the second pixel area include a plurality of insulating layers disposed on the substrate, and

the plurality of insulating layers are not disposed in the transparent area.

18. A display device comprising:

a substrate including:

a first layer and a second layer overlapping each other; and

a blocking layer disposed between the first layer and the second layer,

wherein a first display area and a second display area are defined on the substrate;

a plurality of first pixel areas is defined on the substrate in the first display area,

a plurality of second pixel areas is defined on the substrate in the second display area,

a transparent area adjacent to the plurality of second pixel areas is defined on the substrate in the second display area,

wherein the blocking layer overlaps the plurality of second pixel areas, does not overlap the transparent area, and blocks light.

19. The display device of claim 18 , wherein

a peeling force between the first layer and the second layer of the substrate is greater than about 90 gf/inch.

20. The display device of claim 18 , wherein

the substrate further includes a barrier layer disposed between the first layer and the second layer, and

the blocking layer includes a metal.
