Abstract

A display device is provided, which includes a substrate with a concave. A light-emitting diode is disposed in the concave. A thin film transistor is disposed on a surface of the substrate, and electrically connected to the light-emitting diode. The thin film transistor and the light-emitting diode are disposed on the same side of the substrate, or disposed on different sides of the substrate.
