Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include a substrate, a display element layer on the substrate, an encapsulation layer on the display element layer to seal the display element layer, a polarizing layer on the encapsulation layer, a first protection layer on the substrate and spaced apart from the polarizing layer, and a second protection layer on the substrate and covering a portion of the first protection layer, wherein the first protection layer has a thickness that is greater than a thickness of the second protection layer.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A display device comprising: a substrate comprising a first area and a second area bent from the first area; a display element layer on the first area; an encapsulation layer on the display element layer to seal the display element layer; a polarizing layer on the encapsulation layer; a support layer below the first area; a first protection layer on the first area and the second area; and a second protection layer on the second area and in contact with the first protection layer. 2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein a maximum thickness of the first protection layer is greater than a maximum thickness of the second protection layer. 3 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first protection layer was formed by a first curing process, and wherein the second protection layer was formed by a second curing process different from the first curing process. 4 . The display device of claim 3 , wherein the second curing process was performed after the first curing process. 5 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first protection layer and the second protection layer comprise a same material. 6 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the substrate further comprises a third area spaced apart from the first area with the second area interposed therebetween, and wherein the first protection layer is not disposed on the third area, and the second protection layer is disposed on the third area. 7 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first protection layer is spaced apart from the polarizing layer. 8 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein a width of overlapping area of the first area and the first protection layer in a first direction is about 140 μm or more. 9 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the support layer does not overlap the second protection layer when viewed in a plan view.
