  • Publication number: 20060114403
    Abstract: A display apparatus includes a display substrate including a display substrate, a first pixel layer and a second pixel layer. The display substrate includes a pixel region to display an image. The first pixel layer is formed on the pixel region, and has an opening that has a curved shape in plan view. The second pixel layer is formed in the opening, the second pixel layer having a shape that is similar to the curved shape of the opening. The second pixel layer is useful for repairing the pixel layer after removing sections to which undesirable foreign substances are attached. With the multi-pixel layer display device, malfunction rate is reduced and display quality is improved.
