Patent ID: 8766323

Claim:
An organic light emitting display apparatus comprising: a lower substrate comprising a display region whereon an image is displayed, and a non-display region outside the display region, the non-display region comprising a first power line for delivering a first power voltage and a second power line for delivering a second power voltage; wherein the display region comprises: a thin film transistor (TFT) having an active layer; a gate electrode arranged on a gate insulating layer covering the active layer and extending to the non-display region; and source and drain electrodes arranged on an insulating interlayer covering the gate electrode and extending to the non-display region and that contact the active layer via contact holes formed in the gate insulating layer and the insulating interlayer, wherein the first power line and the second power line are formed on the insulating interlayer in the non-display region with a predetermined distance therebetween; an encapsulation substrate; a functional layer comprising a thermoplastic resin formed between the power lines and the encapsulation substrate, wherein the functional layer extends over regions corresponding to the first power line and the second power line; a polarizing plate on the encapsulation substrate; a planarization layer covering the source and drain electrodes and extending to the non-display region; a first conductive layer patterned for each of sub-pixels on the planarization layer of the display region, and arranged on the planarization layer of the non-display region, without being patterned; a pixel defining layer (PDL) covering the planarization layer and exposing a portion of the first conductive layer; and a second conductive layer arranged on the first conductive layer by having an organic layer formed therebetween in the display region, and contacting the first conductive layer in the non-display region.
