  • Publication number: 20250221256
    Abstract: A display device according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure includes a substrate including a plurality of sub-pixels, an encapsulation substrate bonded to the substrate in a state where an adhesive film is disposed on the substrate, a driving transistor disposed in the sub-pixel, an organic light emitting diode connected to the driving transistor, a cathode contact part connected to the organic light emitting diode and configured to apply a low-potential voltage, a first gap structure disposed over the cathode contact part, and a second gap structure disposed over the encapsulation substrate so as to face the first gap structure. Thus, a uniform cell gap can be maintained during a bonding process. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a pressing dark spot caused by foreign matter generated inside the display device.
