Abstract
A display panel includes a first substrate a second substrate, a liquid crystal layer, a black matrix and a plurality of dots. The second substrate faces the first substrate. The liquid crystal layer is interposed between the first and second substrates. The black matrix is formed on at least one of the first and second substrates to block light. The dots are interposed between the first and second substrates corresponding to the black matrix. Each of the dots includes a plurality of spacers aligned in a predetermined direction.
Claims21
A display panel comprising:
- a first substrate;
- a second substrate facing the first substrate;
- a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first and second substrates;
- a black matrix formed on at least one of the first and second substrates;
- and
- a plurality of dots interposed between the first and second substrates corresponding to the black matrix, each of the dots including a plurality of spacers aligned in a predetermined direction.
A method of manufacturing a display panel, comprising:
- aligning a plurality of spacers on a black matrix of a first substrate in a predetermined direction using a printing roller;
- forming a seal line on the first substrate;
- dropping a plurality of liquid crystal droplets onto a second substrate;
- and
- combining the first substrate with the second substrate.
A spacer printing apparatus comprising:
- a printing plate including a plurality of receiving recesses to receive a plurality of spacers;
- and
- a printing roller rolled on the printing plate so that the spacers are attached to a surface of the printing roller, and rolled on a display substrate to print the attached spacers onto the display substrate.
