摘要
A display apparatus includes: a substrate including a display area in which thin film transistors and display devices electrically connected to the thin film transistors are arranged and a first non-display area outside the display area; a through portion vertically penetrating the substrate; a second non-display area between the through portion and the display area; and an encapsulation layer on the display devices and including a first inorganic encapsulation layer, an organic encapsulation layer, and a second inorganic encapsulation layer, which are sequentially stacked. The first inorganic encapsulation layer and the second inorganic encapsulation layer extend to the through portion and directly contact each other in the second non-display area, and the first inorganic encapsulation layer directly contacts another inorganic layer thereunder in the second non-display area.

This application claims priority to and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0072418, filed on Jun. 18, 2019 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
Aspects of one or more embodiments relate to a display apparatus and a manufacturing method thereof.
Recently, physical buttons and the like have been removed from the front of the display device, and a display area for displaying an image has expanded. Also, a display apparatus in which a separate member for expanding a function of the display apparatus, such as a camera and the like, and placed in the display area to increase the display area has been introduced. To place a separate member such as a camera in a display area, a groove or a through portion where the separate member may be located is formed in the display area. However, the groove or the through portion formed in the display area may become a new permeable path through which external moisture, etc. may penetrate into the display area.
According to an aspect of one or more embodiments, a display apparatus in which penetration of external moisture, etc. through a through portion in a display area is prevented or substantially prevented, and a manufacturing method of the display apparatus, are provided.
