Organic light emitting diode display device
An organic light emitting diode display device includes a substrate, a protection layer on the substrate, the protection layer including a trench pattern and a recessed portion, a first electrode on the protection layer, a pixel defining layer on the protection layer, the pixel defining layer defining an opening that exposes at least a part of the first electrode, an organic light emitting layer on the first electrode, and a second electrode on the organic light emitting layer. The recessed portion overlaps the opening and is spaced apart from an edge of the opening in a plan view. The trench pattern includes a plurality of trenches extending along a first direction. Each trench of the plurality of trenches is spaced apart from the first electrode in a plan view and has a concave cross-section.
