Potential Commercial Applications
This technology could be utilized in the manufacturing of flexible smartphones, smart clothing, and medical devices.
Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include similar technologies used in flexible displays or stretchable electronics.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology compare to existing methods for preventing crack propagation in stretchable displays?
This technology uses holes and conductive members to block crack propagation, but how does it compare to other methods such as protective coatings or reinforcement materials?
What impact could this technology have on the cost of manufacturing stretchable displays?
Implementing this technology may require additional steps in the manufacturing process, potentially increasing production costs. How does this impact the overall cost-effectiveness of stretchable displays using this technology?
Original Abstract Submitted
According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a display device includes a stretchable lower substrate; a plurality of plate patterns on the lower substrate and spaced apart from each other, a plurality of line units between the plurality of plate patterns; a plurality of holes in a peak area of the plurality of line units; and a plurality of conductive members filled in the plurality of holes. Accordingly, the plurality of holes are formed in a peak area in which the stress is concentrated so that when the crack is generated, the crack may be blocked so as not to propagate to the other part of the line unit from the plurality of holes.
