Abstract

A display device includes a display area and a non-display area; and a pad portion disposed in the non-display area, wherein the pad portion includes a first conductive layer; a second conductive layer that partially overlaps the first conductive layer in a direction perpendicular to a surface of the substrate; a first insulation film disposed between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer; a second insulation film that is disposed on the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer and includes an opening overlapping the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer; and a third conductive layer disposed on the second insulation film.

Claims (20)

1. A display device comprising:

a substrate including a display area and a non-display area; and

a first gate conductive layer;

a first insulation film disposed on the first gate conductive layer;

a second insulation film that is disposed on the first gate conductive layer;

a second gate conductive layer; and

a first data conductive layer,

wherein

a length of the first gate conductive layer in a first direction parallel to a surface of the substrate is longer than a length of the second gate conductive layer in the first direction parallel to the surface of the substrate, and

wherein a top surface of the second insulation film is in contact with the second gate conductive layer and a bottom surface of the second insulation film is in contact with the first insulation film,

wherein

the first data conductive layer is in direct contact with the second gate conductive layer in an area in which the first gate conductive layer and the second gate conductive layer overlap in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate, and

the first data conductive layer is in direct contact with the first gate conductive layer in an area in which the first gate conductive layer and the second gate conductive layer do not overlap in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein an area of a region in which the first gate conductive layer and the second gate conductive layer overlap in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate is 30% or more among an entire area of an opening of the second insulation film.

3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein an area sum of regions in which the first gate conductive layer and the second gate conductive layer do not overlap in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate among an opening of the second insulation film is 1.5 μm 2 or more.

4. The display device of claim 1 , wherein

at least one sub-opening of the second gate conductive layer that overlaps the first gate conductive layer is disposed within the opening of the second insulation film, and

a shape of the at least one sub-openings of the second gate conductive layer is one of a linear shape, a circular shape, and a polygonal shape.

5. The display device of claim 4 , wherein a shortest width of the at least one sub-opening of the second gate conductive layer is 2 μm or less.

6. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the pad portion further includes a second data layer disposed on the first data conductive layer.
