Abstract

A display device includes a flexible base layer including a first portion and a second portion disposed around the second portion; a display unit disposed on a first surface of the first portion and including a light emitting element; a driving circuit disposed on a first surface of the second portion and including a driving chip; a support member attached to a second surface of the first portion and a second surface of the second portion; and an adhesive member disposed between the flexible base layer and the support member, wherein the adhesive member includes a first adhesive member having a first elastic modulus and a second adhesive member having a second elastic modulus that is higher than the first elastic modulus, and the second adhesive member overlaps the driving circuit.

Claims (54)

1. A display device, comprising:

a flexible base layer including a first portion and a second portion disposed around the second portion;

a display unit disposed on a first surface of the first portion and including a light emitting element;

a driving circuit disposed on a first surface of the second portion and including a driving chip;

a support member attached to a second surface of the first portion and a second surface of the second portion; and

an adhesive member disposed between the flexible base layer and the support member,

wherein the adhesive member includes a first adhesive member having a first elastic modulus and a second adhesive member having a second elastic modulus that is higher than the first elastic modulus, and

wherein the first adhesive member is disposed in the first portion and the second portion of the flexible base layer, and the second adhesive member overlaps the driving circuit in the second portion of the flexible base layer.

2. The display device of claim 1 ,

wherein the second elastic modulus is 8 megapascal (MPa) or higher.

3. The display device of claim 1 ,

wherein the second adhesive member has an area equal to or greater than an area of the driving circuit on a plane.

4. The display device of claim 3 ,

wherein the second adhesive member is disposed on an entire surface of the second portion on a plane.

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

a first pad disposed on the second portion,

wherein the driving circuit includes a first terminal disposed between the driving chip and the first pad and being in direct contact with the first pad.

6. The display device of claim 5 ,

wherein the second adhesive member overlaps the first pad.

7. The display device of claim 5 ,

wherein the first terminal includes a first terminal region not including a first conductive material included in the first pad and including a second conductive material that is different from the first conductive material and a second terminal region including the first conductive material and the second conductive material.

8. The display device of claim 5 , further comprising:

a second pad disposed on the second portion and spaced apart from the first pad,

wherein the driving circuit further includes a second terminal disposed between the driving chip and the second pad and being in direct contact with the second pad.

9. The display device of claim 8 ,

wherein the second adhesive member overlaps the first pad and the second pad.

10. The display device of claim 1 ,

wherein the first adhesive member and the second adhesive member include dissimilar materials.

11. The display device of claim 10 ,

wherein the first adhesive member is made of a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA), and the second adhesive member is a curable adhesive.

12. The display device of claim 1 ,

wherein the first adhesive member and the second adhesive member are continuously disposed as an integrated adhesive member.

13. The display device of claim 12 ,

wherein the first adhesive member and the second adhesive member are made of a curable adhesive.

14. A display device, comprising:

a flexible base layer including a first portion, a second portion disposed around the first portion, and a bending portion disposed between the first portion and the second portion;

a display unit disposed on a first surface of the first portion and including a light emitting element;

a driving circuit disposed on a first surface of the second portion and including a driving chip;

a support member disposed on a second surface of the first portion and a second surface of the second portion; and

an adhesive member disposed between the flexible base layer and the support member

wherein the adhesive member includes a first adhesive member having a first elastic modulus and a second adhesive member having a second elastic modulus that is higher than the first elastic modulus, and

wherein the first adhesive member is disposed in the first portion and the second portion of the flexible base layer, and the second adhesive member overlaps the driving circuit in the second portion of the flexible base layer.

15. The display device of claim 14 ,

wherein the support member and the adhesive member do not overlap the bending portion.

16. The display device of claim 15 ,

wherein the second adhesive member has an area equal to or greater than an area of the driving circuit on a plane.

17. The display device of claim 16 ,

wherein the second adhesive member is disposed on an entire surface of the second portion on a plane.

18. The display device of claim 14 ,

wherein the second elastic modulus is 8 MPa or higher.

19. The display device of claim 14 ,

wherein the first adhesive member is made of a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA), and the second adhesive member is a curable adhesive.

20. The display device of claim 14 ,

wherein the first adhesive member and the second adhesive member are made of a curable adhesive.
