Liquid crystal display panel and method for fabricating the same

A liquid crystal display panel comprising:

• first and second substrates facing into each other;
• a plurality of gate lines and data lines on the first substrate to cross each other defining a pixel region;
• a thin film transistor at each crossed point of the gate lines and the data lines;
• a pixel electrode in the pixel region;
• a black matrix on the second substrate;
• a color filter layer on the black matrix;
• a third layer on the color filter layer;
• a column spacer on the third layer over a region vertically overlapping the gate lines and the data lines;
• a dummy column spacer on the third layer over the black matrix in a dummy region;
• a UV sealant outside the dummy column spacer between the substrates;
• and
• a liquid crystal layer between the substrates.

A method for fabricating a liquid crystal display panel, comprising:

• forming a dummy region and a pixel region on first and second substrates, the dummy region having a portion spaced apart from the first substrate;
• forming a column spacer and a dummy column spacer on the second substrate, the column spacer formed in the pixel region and the dummy column spacer formed in the dummy region;
• forming a UV sealant outside the dummy column spacer;
• applying a liquid crystal on the first substrate;
• attaching the first and second substrates;
• and
• irradiating a UV ray on the attached first and second substrates.
