1. A display device, comprising:
a first electrode disposed on a substrate;
a pixel defining layer exposing at least a part of the first electrode and disposed on the substrate;
a light emitting layer disposed on the first electrode;
a second electrode disposed on the light emitting layer; and
an encapsulation layer disposed on the second electrode, wherein
the pixel defining layer includes an overlapping area overlapping the first electrode and a non-overlapping area not overlapping the first electrode,
the overlapping area includes a first overlapping area, the first overlapping area is spaced apart from the first electrode thereby forming a space, and
the encapsulation layer is at least partially disposed in the space located between the first electrode and the pixel defining layer in the first overlapping area.
