Publication number: 20200059625Abstract: The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a highly reliable display device at a low cost with high yield. According to the present invention, a step due to an opening in a contact is covered with an insulating layer to reduce the step, and is processed into a gentle shape. A wiring or the like is formed to be in contact with the insulating layer and thus the coverage of the wiring or the like is enhanced. In addition, deterioration of a light-emitting element due to contaminants such as water can be prevented by sealing a layer including an organic material that has water permeability in a display device with a sealing material. Since the sealing material is formed in a portion of a driver circuit region in the display device, the frame margin of the display device can be narrowed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2019Publication date: February 20, 2020Inventors: Shunpei YAMAZAKI, Satoshi MURAKAMI, Motomu KURATA, Hiroyuki HATA, Mitsuhiro ICHIJO, Takashi OHTSUKI, Aya ANZAI, Masayuki SAKAKURA
