Abstract
A liquid crystal micro display (lcmd) is manufactured by creating a hole in an lcmd surface, filling the lcmd with liquid crystal material through the hole, and then sealing the hole. The invention allows an lcmd to be tested before it is separated from other lcmds and packaged. As a result, the invention increases the yield and reduces the cost associated with lcmd manufacturing.
Claims18
A method of manufacturing a liquid crystal micro display (lcmd), said method comprising:
- creating a hole in a substrate;
- causing liquid crystal material to flow through said hole;
- and
- sealing said hole.
A method of manufacturing a first liquid crystal micro display (lcmd) comprising:
- testing said first lcmd while it is physically connected to a second lcmd;
- and
- separating said first lcmd from said second lcmd after said testing.
A liquid crystal micro display (lcmd) comprising:
- a first substrate;
- and
- a second substrate having a hole extending through a thickness thereof.
