Display apparatus having encapsulating layers terminating at a peripheral area of a substrate and method of manufacturing the same
A display apparatus includes a substrate on which a central area having a display area and a peripheral area disposed around the central area are defined. The display apparatus includes a display area inorganic layer on the display area and extending to a portion of the peripheral area; and an encapsulation inorganic layer covering the display area, on the display area inorganic layer, and having an edge that is in parallel with or extending over an edge of the display area inorganic layer.
1. A display apparatus comprising:
a substrate having a display area and a peripheral area around the display area;
a display device on the display area;
an encapsulating layer covering the display device, and comprising a first inorganic layer and a second inorganic layer on the first inorganic layer, the first inorganic layer on the display area and extending to a portion of the peripheral area;
a blocking member disposed on the peripheral area and comprising a first blocking member and a second blocking member; and
a conductive member disposed below the second blocking member, a bottom surface of the conductive member and a bottom surface of the second blocking member being on an upper surface of a same layer,
wherein the first inorganic layer directly contacts the second inorganic layer in at least a region of the peripheral area.
2. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulating layer further comprises an organic layer between the first inorganic layer and the second inorganic layer.
3. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a distance between the second blocking member and an edge of the substrate is greater than a distance between the second inorganic layer and the edge of the substrate.
4. The display apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a third inorganic layer on the display area and disposed between the substrate and the display device,
wherein the third inorganic layer extends to the peripheral area, and
wherein the third inorganic layer directly contacts the first inorganic layer in at least a region of the peripheral area.
5. The display apparatus of claim 4 , wherein an edge of the third inorganic layer is spaced from an edge of the substrate.
6. The display apparatus of claim 4 , wherein an edge of the first inorganic layer extends over an edge of the third inorganic layer.
7. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein an edge of the first inorganic layer is spaced from an edge of the substrate.
8. The display apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a protective layer on the second inorganic layer and terminating at an upper surface of the substrate in the peripheral area of the substrate,
wherein a distance between the protective layer and an edge of the substrate is less than a distance between the second inorganic layer and the edge of the substrate.
9. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the conductive member is at least partially buried in the second blocking member.
