FLAT PANEL DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A flat panel display device including a display area where a desired image is displayed and a non-display area located at an outside of the display area, the flat panel display device comprising:
- bank portions arranged in a pattern in the display area and partitioning a plurality of openings;
emission elements located in the openings;
dummy bank portions formed in the non-display area and integrated with the bank portions in the display area; and
a sealing passivation layer having a multi-layered structure of at least one organic film and at least one inorganic film alternately arranged, one of the at least one organic film located at an interface directly contacting the emission elements and one of the at least one inorganic film arranged firstly on the dummy bank portions when the sealing passivation layer extends from the display area to the non-display area.
