A display device may include: a substrate including a display area and a non-display area; and pixels disposed on the display area, and each including sub-pixels, each sub-pixel including a pixel circuit layer, and a display element layer including a light emitting element. The display element layer includes first and second electrodes spaced apart from each other; a first insulating layer disposed between the pixel circuit layer and the light emitting element; and a second insulating layer disposed on the light emitting element and filling spaces between the first insulating layer and ends of the light emitting element. The light emitting element includes a first conductive semiconductor layer, an active layer enclosing at least one side of the first conductive semiconductor layer, a second conductive semiconductor layer enclosing the active layer, an electrode layer enclosing the second conductive semiconductor layer, and an insulating film covering the electrode layer.

A programmable circuit includes an array of printed groups of microscopic transistors or diodes having pn junctions. The devices are pre-formed and printed as an ink and cured. The devices have a proper orientation and a reverse orientation after settling on a conductor layer. The devices are connected in parallel within small groups. To neutralize the reverse-oriented devices, a sufficient voltage is applied across the parallel-connected diodes to forward bias only the devices having the reverse orientation. This causes a sufficient current to flow through each of the reverse-orientated devices to destroy an electrical interface between an electrode of the devices and the conductor layer to create an open circuit, such that those devices do not affect a rectifying function of the devices in the group having the proper orientation. An interconnection conductor pattern may then interconnect the groups to form complex logic circuits.

An interconnection conductor pattern interconnects at least some of the leads of the groups in the patch area to create logic circuits for a customized application of the generic circuit. The groups may also be interconnected to be logic gates, and the gate leads terminate in the patch area. The interconnection conductor pattern then interconnects the gates for form complex logic circuits.
