| 20100118236 | DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - The present invention relates to a display device and a method for manufacturing the display device. The display device includes at least one partition formed on a lower display panel. A color filter may fill a region defined by the partitions. A first upper passivation layer is formed on the color filter, and a second upper passivation layer is formed on the first upper passivation layer and the partitions such that the LCD structure is planarized. In the display device, the height of the partition is sufficiently high to prevent mixing of the colors of neighboring pixel filters, and the process margin of the spacer and the light blocking member may be ensured. The partitions can be formed with multiple layers having different widths such that the mixture of colors between the neighboring pixels may be prevented, and the color reproducibility may be increased. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20100141875 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY, PANEL THEREFOR, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - A display panel includes a substrate, a partition formed on the substrate and defining a plurality of openings, a plurality of color filters formed in the openings and having a substantially uniform thickness within each respective opening, and a spacer formed on the partition. The color filters and the spacer are formed through inkjet printing. The color filters have the substantially uniform thickness by the partition having a height which is greater than the thickness of the color filters during the inkjet printing. The height of the partition may be in a range of about 1.5 to about 2 times the thickness of the color filter. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100157235 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY - A liquid crystal display according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes: a substrate; a partition formed on the substrate and defining a pixel; a plurality of protrusion members formed with the same material as the partition on the substrate, and disposed with a linear plane shape inside the pixel defined by the partition; and a color filter filled inside the pixel defined by the partition. Accordingly, in the liquid crystal display according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of transparent protrusion members are formed in the pixel defined by the partition such that movement of color filter ink dripped through an Inkjet method is controlled such that a color filter may be planarized on the whole surface of the pixel. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100309241 | METHOD FOR INKJET PRINTING - A method for inkjet printing includes providing a light blocking member pattern including a plurality of openings at positions corresponding to pixels, dripping a dummy ink drop on the light blocking member pattern by using an inkjet printer, providing a CCD (charge-coupled device) image for the dripped dummy ink drop, representing the CCD image on rectangular coordinates, calculating a central point under an x-axis and a y-axis of the CCD image, calculating an escape value as a deviation of the central point under the x-axis and the y-axis in the CCD image from a reference point established by the inkjet printer, calculating a time adjustment value of the ink drip based on the escape value, and controlling the time for the ink drip for each nozzle of the inkjet printer by the time adjustment value of the ink drip. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20110019140 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - A display panel according to the present invention includes a first insulating substrate with a gate line and a data line formed thereon. A thin film transistor is connected to the gate line and the data line and a partition is formed according to the gate line and the data line defining a color filter filling region. Color filter is formed as a convex shape since both circumferences of upper portion and lower portion of the partition are larger than that of center portion. A color filter is formed in the filling region. A passivation layer is formed on the color filter and the partition and a pixel electrode on the passivation layer connected to the thin film transistor through a contact hole punching the passivation layer and the color filter. | 01-27-2011 |
