Abstract

A display device includes a first electrode disposed on a substrate, a first insulating film disposed on the first electrode and having a first opening formed, a second insulating film disposed on the first insulating film and having a second opening, and a contact electrode electrically contacting at least a portion of the first electrode through the first opening and the second opening, wherein a side surface of the first insulating film defines the first opening, and the second insulating film overlaps the side surface of the first insulating film such that the contact electrode and the first insulating film are not in contact with each other.

Claims (37)

1. A display device comprising:

a first electrode disposed on a substrate;

a first insulating film disposed on the first electrode and having a first opening;

a light-emitting element disposed directly on the first insulating film;

a second insulating film disposed on the first insulating film, contacted with the first insulating film, and having a second opening; and

a contact electrode electrically contacting at least a portion of the first electrode through the first opening and the second opening, wherein

a side surface of the first insulating film defines the first opening, and

the second insulating film overlaps the side surface of the first insulating film such that the contact electrode and the first insulating film are not in contact with each other.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first insulating film includes:

a first refractive layer having a first refractive index; and

a second refractive layer disposed on the first refractive layer and having a second refractive index greater than the first refractive index.

3. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the first insulating film is a distributed Bragg reflector.

4. The display device of claim 3 , further comprising a third insulating film disposed on the second insulating film and having a third opening formed therein.

5. The display device of claim 4 , wherein

the first opening has a first diameter,

the second opening has a second diameter,

the third opening has a third diameter, and

the first diameter is greater than the second diameter and is smaller than the third diameter.

6. The display device of claim 5 , wherein

the first diameter is in a range of about 8 μm to about 10 μm, and

the second diameter is in a range of about 4 μm to about 6 μm.

7. The display device of claim 4 , wherein at least a portion of the second insulating film is disposed on the light-emitting element.

8. The display device of claim 7 , wherein at least a portion of the contact electrode is electrically connected to the light-emitting element.

9. The display device of claim 7 , wherein at least a portion of the third insulating film overlaps the second insulating film disposed on the light-emitting element.

10. The display device of claim 9 , wherein

the second insulating film includes an inorganic material, and

the third insulating film includes an organic material.

11. The display device of claim 9 , wherein

the first opening has a first diameter,

the second opening has a second diameter,

the third opening has a third diameter, and

the third diameter is smaller than the first diameter and is greater than the second diameter.

12. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first insulating film is disposed directly on the first electrode and disposed between the first electrode and the light emitting element.

13. The display device of claim 12 , further comprising:

a second electrode spaced apart from the first electrode, wherein

the light emitting element is between the first electrode and the second electrode, and

wherein the first insulating film is disposed directly on the second electrode.
