Abstract:
A display device includes: a display panel including a display area including pixels and a non-display area including a dummy pixel; a scan driver which supplies a scan signal to the display panel; a data driver which supplies a data signal to the display panel; and a timing controller which supplies a first control signal for controlling the scan driver and a second control signal for controlling the data driver. The dummy pixel is connected to a bad pixel among the pixels in the display area through a repair line, and a connection of the dummy pixel to the repair line is cut off in an initialization phase in which a voltage of an initialization power source is supplied.
Abstract:
A display panel with microcavities each having ends of asymmetric cross-sectional area. An exemplary display panel has a substrate; an electrode disposed on the substrate; and a supporting member disposed on the electrode. The supporting member is shaped to form a cavity between the supporting member and the electrode. The cavity has a first opening at one end of the supporting member and a second opening at an opposite end of the supporting member, the first opening being positioned over the electrode. A cross-sectional area of the first opening is smaller than a cross-sectional area of the second opening.
