As shown in FIG. 4A, the first opening 10H may be formed in each of the first and second areas RA1 and RA2, and each of the first openings 10H may be surrounded by the sealant 350. In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4B, when the first opening 10H is not formed in the second area RA2, the sealant 350 may surround the first opening 10H corresponding to the first area RA1 in the intermediate area MA. Pixels, for example, the display element layer 200A, may not be located in the second area RA2. In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4C, the auxiliary display element layer 200C may be located in the second area RA2. The auxiliary display element layer 200C may include display elements having a structure or/and an operation method different from those of display elements of the display element layer 200A as described above.
FIG. 5 is a plan view of the display panel 10 according to an embodiment.
Referring to FIG. 5, the display panel 10 may include the first and second areas RA1 and RA2, the display area DA, the intermediate area MA, and the peripheral area PA. FIG. 5 may illustrate the substrate 100 of the display panel 10. For example, the substrate 100 may include the first and second areas RA1 and RA2, the display area DA, the intermediate area MA, and the peripheral area PA.
