Abstract: A display device includes a substrate and a plurality of unit pixels disposed on the substrate. Each unit pixel includes a plurality of sub-pixels, a plurality of light sensing pixels, and a plurality of partition wall members. Each of the sub-pixels includes a light emitting element that emits light and a light emitting area from which the light is emitted. Each of the light sensing pixels includes a light receiving element that outputs a sensing signal corresponding to the light and a light receiving area that receives the light. In a plan view, each of the partition wall members surrounds the corresponding light receiving area and overlaps at least some of the sub-pixels.

Abstract: A dry etching step during the manufacturing of a substrate for a liquid crystal display (LCD) device is improved by placing the substrate at a predetermined distance away from the lower electrode to prevent damage of the substrate due to electrostatic formed therebetween. An insulating tape attached on the lower electrode provides electrostatic protection between the substrate and the lower electrode, so that the substrate is properly lifted off the lower electrode via the lifting pins of the lower electrode without electrostatic interference.
