Abstract
Disclosed are a liquid crystal display device and a fabricating method thereof facilitating a cell-cutting process in cutting cells by the process of simultaneous scribing and breaking. The present invention includes a substrate, a closed-end main UV-hardening sealant on the substrate, and a closed-end dummy UV-hardening sealant on a periphery of the main UV-hardening sealant, wherein a width of one portion of the closed-end dummy UV-hardening sealant overlapped with a scribing line is narrower than the width of the other portions.
Claims14
A liquid crystal display device, comprising:
- a substrate;
- a closed-end main UV-hardening sealant on the substrate;
- and
- a closed-end dummy UV-hardening sealant on a periphery of the main UV-hardening sealant, wherein a width of one portion of the closed-end dummy UV-hardening sealant overlapped with a scribing line is narrower than that of other portions of the closed-end dummy UV-hardening sealant.
A method of fabricating a liquid crystal display device, comprising:
- preparing lower and upper substrates;
- forming a closed-end main UV-hardening sealant on one of the lower and upper substrates;
- forming a closed-end dummy UV-hardening sealant on a periphery of the main UV-hardening sealant so that a width of one portion of the dummy UV-hardening sealant overlapped with a scribing line is narrower than that of a width of other portions of the dummy UV-hardening sealant;
- applying a liquid crystal on one of the lower and upper substrates;
- bonding the lower and upper substrates to each other;
- applying UV light to the bonded substrates;
- and
- cutting the bonded substrates into unit cells along the scribing line.
