Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A display device includes a display panel and a first protective substrate positioned under the display panel and including a first sub-region and a second sub-region positioned at a side of the first sub-region. A thickness of the first protective substrate in the first sub-region is greater than a thickness of the first protective substrate in the second sub-region.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A display device comprising: a display panel; and a first protective substrate positioned under the display panel and including a first sub-region and a second sub-region positioned at a first side of the first sub-region, wherein a thickness of the first protective substrate in the first sub-region is greater than a thickness of the first protective substrate in the second sub-region, wherein the first protective substrate further comprises: a first cut surface positioned at the first side of the first sub-region; and a second cut surface positioned at a side of the second sub-region, which is opposite to the first side of the first sub-region, and which is substantially parallel with the first cut surface, and wherein a slope of the first cut surface is different from a slope of the second cut surface. 2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the slope of the first cut surface is smaller than the slope of the second cut surface. 3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the slope of the first cut surface and the slope of the second cut surface are less than 90 degrees with respect to a bottom surface of the first protective substrate. 4. The display device of claim 1 , wherein a length of the first protective substrate in a direction along which the first and second sub-regions are arranged is longer than a length of the display panel in the direction. 5. A display device comprising: a display panel; and a first protective substrate positioned under the display panel and including a first sub-region and a second sub-region positioned at a first side of the first sub-region, wherein a thickness of the first protective substrate in the first sub-region is greater than a thickness of the first protective substrate in the second sub-region, and wherein a difference between the thickness of the first protective substrate in the first sub-region and the thickness of the first protective substrate in the second sub-region is smaller than a thickness of the display panel. 6. The display device of claim 1 , further comprising a first adhesive layer positioned between the first protective substrate and the display panel. 7. The display device of claim 1 , wherein a difference between the thickness of the first protective substrate in the first sub-region and the thickness of the first protective substrate in the second sub-region is smaller than the thickness of the first protective substrate in the second sub-region.
