a plurality of first pixels in the folding area on the substrate and each having a first light emitting area corresponding to where light is emitted by the first pixels in a plan view;
a plurality of second pixels in the non-folding area on the substrate and each having a second light emitting area corresponding to where light is emitted by the second pixels in the plan view, the second light emitting area having a size that is different from a size of the first light emitting area; and
a window on the first and second pixels and including a plurality of grooves repeatedly arranged along a first direction in the folding area, and
wherein each of the grooves includes a first groove formed from a first surface of the window toward a second surface of the window facing the first surface and a second groove formed from the second surface toward the first surface, and the first groove and the second groove are alternately arranged,
wherein a width in the first direction of the first light emitting area is greater than a width in the first direction of each of the grooves.
2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the size of the first light emitting area is larger than the size of the second light emitting area.
3 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein an interval at which the first pixels are spaced gradually decreases toward the non-folding area.
4 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a plurality of diffraction patterns on the first pixels and spaced apart from each other.
5 . The display device of claim 4 , wherein an interval at which the diffraction patterns are spaced gradually increases toward the non-folding area.
6 . The display device of claim 4 , wherein heights of the diffraction patterns adjacent to the non-folding area are different from each other.
7 . The display device of claim 4 , wherein the diffraction patterns are on the first surface of the window.
8 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:
an encapsulation layer between the first and second pixels and the window.
9 . The display device of claim 8 , further comprising:
a buffer layer between the encapsulation layer and the window.
10 . A display device comprising:
a substrate including a folding area and a non-folding area adjacent to the folding area;
a plurality of diffraction patterns in the folding area on the substrate and spaced apart from each other; and
a window on the substrate and including a plurality of grooves repeatedly arranged along a first direction in the folding area, wherein the plurality of grooves overlap one or more of the diffraction patterns in a plan view, and
wherein each of the grooves includes a first groove formed from a first surface of the window toward a second surface of the window facing the first surface and a second groove formed from the second surface toward the first surface, and the first groove and the second groove are alternately arranged.
11 . The display device of claim 10 , wherein an interval at which the diffraction patterns are spaced gradually increases toward the non-folding area.
