Abstract

A display device includes a substrate, a plurality of pixels above the substrate, each of the pixels including a light emitting element, a display region including the plurality of pixels, a thin film transistor which each of the plurality of pixels includes, a protective film including a first inorganic insulating material and located between the thin film transistor and the light emitting element, a sealing film including a second inorganic insulating material and covering the light emitting element, and at least one through hole located in the display region and passing through the substrate, the protective film, and the sealing film, wherein the second inorganic insulating material is in direct contact with the protective film in a first region located between the through hole and the pixels.

Claims (23)

1. A display device comprising:

a first substrate having a through hole;

a second substrate arranged under the first substrate;

a plurality of pixels above the first substrate, each of the pixels including a light emitting element and a thin film transistor;

a display region including the plurality of pixels;

an interlayer insulating film covering a gate electrode of the thin film transistor;

a planarization film arranged above the thin film transistor and under the light emitting element; and

a sealing film which is located on an upper side of the light emitting element and covers the plurality of pixels;

wherein

the through hole is located in the display region,

the display region includes a first region between the through hole and the plurality of pixels,

the sealing film includes a first inorganic insulating film, an organic insulating film, and a second inorganic insulating film,

the organic insulating film is opposed to a first side surface of the planarization film in the first region,

the first inorganic insulating film is in direct contact with the second inorganic insulating film in the first region,

the first inorganic insulating film and the second inorganic insulating film is covering a second side surface of the interlayer insulating film, and

the first inorganic insulating film and the second inorganic insulating film are directly in contact with the second substrate.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the organic insulating film is located between the first inorganic insulating film and the second inorganic insulating film.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the interlayer insulating film has inclined side surface faced through hole, and

the first inorganic insulating film covers the inclined side surface of the interlayer insulating film.

4. The display device according to claim 3 , wherein

the first inorganic insulating film covers a side surface of the first substrate facing the through hole.
