Abstract: A display panel curved in a first direction includes: first and second areas corresponding to two segments of a pixel divided by a line in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; and a first electrode, in which first sub horizontal openings are defined in the first area, and second sub horizontal openings are defined in the second area, where the first and second sub horizontal openings extend along the first direction; a second substrate including: third and fourth areas corresponding to two segments of the pixel divided by a line in the first direction; and a second electrode, in which first vertical openings are defined in the third area, and second vertical openings are defined in the fourth area, where the first and second vertical openings extend along the second direction; and a liquid crystal layer between the first and second substrates.

Abstract: A display device includes a first supporting member disposed in the first pad area of the first base substrate and spaced apart from the sealing member to define a predetermined space. A second supporting member is filled in the predetermined space by filling and curing liquid material. This protects the display panel from harsh ambience, such as light, heat and moistures, reducing the sealing and black matrix area. Such improvement can decrease the bezel size, effectively increasing viewable area of the display, which becomes more important in the mobile device.
