1. A display device comprising:
a substrate defining an opening and comprising a display area and a non-display area between the opening and the display area;
a pixel array comprising a plurality of pixels in the display area, each of the plurality of pixels including a pixel electrode, an opposite electrode facing the pixel electrode, and an intermediate layer between the pixel electrode and the opposite electrode;
a plurality of data lines bypassing the opening in the non-display area;
a first insulating layer and a second insulating layer, which cover the plurality of data lines;
a conductive layer between the first insulating layer and the second insulating layer; and
a thin film encapsulation layer covering the pixel array, the thin film encapsulation layer including at least one organic encapsulation layer and at least one inorganic encapsulation layer,
wherein, in the non-display area, a first groove is defined by the first insulating layer, the conductive layer, and the second insulating layer,
wherein, in a cross-sectional view, top, bottom and end surfaces of the conductive layer extend further toward a central axis of the first groove relative to adjacent surfaces of the first insulating layer and the second insulating layer defining the first groove; and
wherein at least one sublayer of the intermediate layer extends toward the opening and comprises a first portion and a second portion which are separated from each other, the first portion being around the first groove and the second portion being in the first groove.
