  • Publication number: 20210159285
    Abstract: A display device includes a substrate with a display region and a non-display region. The display region includes first pixels, second pixels, and third pixels. Each of the first to third pixels have emission regions from which light is to be emitted, a light emitting element in the emission region, and a pixel circuit area to drive the light emitting element. A dummy pattern extends through a non-emission region of the substrate located in the display region between adjacent pixels. A thin film encapsulation layer covers the dummy pattern and each of the emission regions.

  • Patent number: 9620744
    Abstract: The optical patterning mask had a protection layer on a light absorption layer. It prevents the light absorption layer from damaged by the cleaning gas when processing the used optical patterning mask for reuse. The protection layer may be made of the same material as bank layer or of material different from the bank layer. The bank layer defines the boundary of the area to be transferred in the transfer layer. The protection layer of the present invention can maintain longer the transfer efficiency of the optical patterning mask, even when the same mask is used repeatedly after cleaning, since the light absorption layer protected from cleaning process can maintain longer its heat conversion property.
