Thereafter, to expose at least a portion of the touch electrode 410, at least a portion of the touch insulating film 430 and the thin film encapsulation layer 300 in the opening portion OP may be removed together with a process of removing a portion(s) the touch insulating film 430 to form a touch contact hole(s) TCH.
When the touch insulating film 430 is an inorganic film formed of an inorganic material, a portion of the substrate 100 may be exposed by removing the touch insulating film 430 and the thin film encapsulation layer 300 in the opening portion OP concurrently with the forming of the touch contact hole(s) TCH, for example, by a dry etching process.
