A flat panel display device has a conductive layer formed between a
substrate and a polarization plate to prevent static electricity from
appearing between the substrate and the polarization plate, thereby
improving screen display quality. The flat panel display device includes:
a flat display panel including a substrate having an image display unit,
a display element arranged on the image display unit of the substrate,
and a sealing unit for sealing the display element; a polarization member
arranged on at least one of the substrate and the sealing unit; and a
shielding member arranged at a portion that does not correspond to the
image display unit of the substrate in order to prevent the appearance of
static electricity between the substrate and the polarization member.
