US Patent 10916588 Display panel, and display device including the same

A display panel including a glass substrate having an opening area, and a display area at least partially surrounding the opening area; a thin film transistor on the display area including a semiconductor layer and a gate electrode; a display element electrically connected to the thin film transistor; a multi-layer including an insulating layer and a lower insulating layer. The insulating layer is between the glass substrate and the display element and the lower insulating layer is between the glass substrate and the insulating layer; and a thin-film encapsulation layer covering the display element including an inorganic encapsulation layer and an organic encapsulation layer. The multi-layer includes a first groove between the opening area and the display area. A first width of a portion of the first groove in the lower insulating layer is greater than a second width of a portion of the first groove in the insulating layer.
