LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A liquid crystal display has liquid crystal containerizing micro-cavities monolithically integrally formed as part of a thin film transistors substrate thereof where mouths of the micro-cavities are sealed shut by material of a capping layer and where the capping layer is patterned to have relatively thicker regions and comparatively thinner or devoid of capping material regions interposed between the thicker regions for thereby providing the capping layer with improved flexibility, the relatively thicker regions being disposed over the mouths of the microcavities.

主权项

1. A liquid crystal display comprising:
a substrate; a thin film transistor disposed on the substrate; a pixel electrode connected to a terminal of the thin film transistor; a roof layer disposed to face the pixel electrode; and a capping layer disposed on the roof layer, wherein a plurality of microcavities each having a respective liquid crystal injection hole and each being formed between the pixel electrode and the roof layer, the microcavities including liquid crystal materials, wherein the capping layer is patterned to include a first region and a second region, the liquid crystal injection holes being covered by capping material forming the capping layer in the first region, and the capping layer being opened at the second region corresponding to the roof layer, and wherein the first region and the second region extend in parallel to one another.
