Claims (31)

1 . A display device comprising:

a substrate provided with a plurality of subpixels and including a central area and a peripheral area surrounding the central area;

a light emitting diode disposed in each of the plurality of subpixels on the substrate; and

an optical structure disposed on the light emitting diode,

wherein the plurality of subpixels includes a first subpixel disposed in the central area and a second subpixel disposed in the peripheral area,

the optical structure disposed in the first subpixel is disposed in a center of the first subpixel, and

the optical structure disposed in the second subpixel is disposed closer to one side of the second subpixel than another side of the second subpixel.

2 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the center of the first subpixel, a center of the light emitting diode arranged in the first subpixel, and a center of the optical structure arranged in the first subpixel overlap with each other.

3 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein a center of the second subpixel and a center of the light emitting diode disposed in the second subpixel do not overlap with each other, and

the center of the second subpixel and a center of the optical structure disposed in the second subpixel do not overlap with each other.

4 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the optical structure includes an optical lens disposed over the light emitting diode.

5 . The display device according to claim 4 , wherein, in the first subpixel, a distance from one end of the light emitting diode disposed in the first subpixel to one end of the optical lens is the same as a distance from another end of the light emitting diode disposed in the first subpixel to another end of the optical lens.

6 . The display device according to claim 4 , wherein, in the second subpixel, a distance from one end of the light emitting diode formed in the second subpixel to one end of the optical lens is different from a distance from the other end of the light emitting diode formed in the second subpixel to the other end of the optical lens.

7 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the optical structure is a side reflective portion disposed on the light emitting diode, and

wherein the side reflective portion includes an insulating layer surrounding an upper portion and side portions of the light emitting diode and a side reflective plate disposed on a side surface of the insulating layer.

8 . The display device according to claim 7 , wherein, in the first subpixel, a distance from one end of the light emitting diode to the side reflective plate disposed at one side of the light emitting diode is the same as a distance from another end of the light emitting diode to the side reflective plate disposed at another side of the light emitting diode.

9 . The display device according to claim 7 , wherein, in the second subpixel, a distance from one end of the light emitting diode to the side reflective plate disposed at one side of the light emitting diode is different from a distance from another end of the light emitting diode to the side reflective plate disposed at another side of the light emitting diode.

10 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein, in the peripheral area, the position where the optical structure is disposed in one subpixel is different from the position where the optical structure is disposed in another subpixel.

11 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein, in each of the plurality of subpixels, the light emitting diode is disposed at a position which is spaced apart from a center of the subpixel by ΔX in a first direction, and is spaced apart from the center of the subpixel by ΔY in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and values of ΔX and ΔY are defined by a normal distribution.

12 . The display device according to claim 11 , wherein, in each of the plurality of subpixels, the optical structure is disposed at a position which is spaced apart from the center of the subpixel by ‘dx’ in the first direction and is spaced apart from the center of the subpixel by ‘dy’ in the second direction, and

values of the ‘dx’ and ‘dy’ are included in the following range,

−ΔX<dx<ΔX, −ΔY<dy<ΔY.

13 . A display device comprising:

a substrate provided with a plurality of subpixels;

a light emitting diode disposed in each of the plurality of subpixels on the substrate; and

an optical structure disposed on the light emitting diode,

wherein, when a center of the light emitting diode overlaps with a center of the subpixel, a center of the optical structure overlaps with the center of the subpixel, and

when the center of the light emitting diode deviates from the center of the subpixel, the center of the optical structure is disposed to deviate from the center of the subpixel so that the optical structure overlaps with an entirety of the light emitting diode.

14 . The display device according to claim 13 , wherein the substrate includes a central area and a peripheral area surrounding the central area, and

wherein the center of the subpixel formed in the central area overlaps with the center of the corresponding light emitting diode, and the center of the subpixel formed in the peripheral area deviates from the center of the corresponding light emitting diode.

15 . The display device according to claim 13 , wherein the optical structure includes an optical lens or a side reflective portion.
