DISPLAY DEVICE: abstract simplified (18125876)

• This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18125876 Titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a display device that consists of several layers. The base layer has a light emitting area, a sensing area, and a non-light-emitting area in between. There is a light emitting element in the light emitting area and an optical sensing element in the sensing area. A capping layer is placed on top of the light emitting element and the optical sensing element, covering all three areas. An inorganic layer is then added on the capping layer, with an opening that aligns with the sensing area. Finally, a thin film encapsulation layer is applied on top, consisting of an inorganic layer, an organic layer, and another inorganic layer.

Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes: a base layer including a light emitting area, a sensing area, and a non-light-emitting area disposed between the light emitting area and the sensing area; a light emitting element disposed in the light emitting area; an optical sensing element disposed in the sensing area; a capping layer disposed on the light emitting element and the optical sensing element and overlapping the light emitting area, the sensing area, and the non-light-emitting area; an inorganic layer disposed on the capping layer and including a first opening overlapping the sensing area; and a thin film encapsulation layer disposed on the inorganic layer and including a first encapsulation inorganic layer, an encapsulation organic layer disposed on the first encapsulation inorganic layer, and a second encapsulation inorganic layer disposed on the encapsulation organic layer.
