Abstract

A display device includes a panel part and a protective window on the panel part. The panel part includes a base substrate, a supporting film disposed below the base substrate, a driving element disposed on the base substrate, the driving element including an active pattern, and a UV-blocking member disposed below the driving element.

Claims (48)

1. A display device comprising:

a panel part including:

a base substrate;

a supporting film including a supporting layer and at least one UV-blocking layer on a surface of the supporting layer and disposed below the base substrate, the supporting layer including a polymeric material;

a driving element disposed on the base substrate, the driving element including an active pattern; and

a UV-blocking member disposed on another surface of the supporting layer below the base substrate; and

a protective window disposed on the panel part.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the UV-blocking member includes at least one selected from the group consisting of a metal oxide, a dye, a pigment and a carbon-based light-blocking material.

3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the UV-blocking member includes a UV-blocking layer disposed on at least one surface of the supporting film.

4. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the UV-blocking member includes UV-blocking particles dispersed in the supporting film.

5. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the UV-blocking member includes a UV-blocking layer disposed on a lower surface of the base substrate.

6. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the UV-blocking member includes at least one selected from the group consisting of zinc oxide and titanium oxide.

7. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the display device includes:

a front portion having a flat shape; and

a side portion including a bending portion having a curved or bent shape.

8. A method for manufacturing a display device, the method comprising:

disposing a UV-blocking member in a panel part of the display device;

combining the panel part with a guide film by a guide adhesive member;

placing a lower surface of the guide film on a seating pad;

forming a bending portion of the panel part by pressing the guide film to an upper surface and a side surface of the seating pad;

combining the panel part with a protective window;

separating the seating pad from the guide film;

irradiating a UV ray onto the guide adhesive member through the lower surface of the guide film; and

separating the guide film from the panel part.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

providing a groove at a side surface of the seating pad, wherein ends of the guide film are guided by the groove to form the bending portion.

10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

forming the seating pad such that the upper surface has a flat shape and the side surface has a curved shape.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the disposing the UV-blocking member includes:

preparing the UV-blocking member to include at least one selected from the group consisting of a metal oxide, a dye, a pigment and a carbon-based light-blocking material.

12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

disposing a supporting film in the panel part; and

disposing a UV-blocking layer on a surface of the supporting film to include the UV-blocking layer in the UV-blocking member.

13. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

disposing a supporting film in the panel part; and

dispersing UV-blocking particles in the supporting film to include the UV-blocking particles in the UV-blocking member.

14. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

disposing a base substrate in the panel part; and

disposing a UV-blocking layer on a surface of the base substrate to include the UV-blocking layer in the UV-blocking member.

15. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

disposing a base substrate in the panel part; and

dispersing UV-blocking particles in the base substrate to include the UV-blocking particles in the UV-blocking member.

16. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

disposing a buffer layer between a base substrate and an active pattern included in the panel part; and

disposing a UV-blocking layer between the buffer layer and the base substrate to include the UV-blocking layer in the UV-blocking member.

17. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

disposing a buffer layer between a base substrate and an active pattern included in the panel part, the buffer layer including an upper buffer layer and a lower buffer layer; and

disposing a UV-blocking layer between the upper buffer layer and the lower buffer layer to include the UV-blocking layer in the UV-blocking member.
