Abstract:
A method of fabricating an LCD device is discussed. The method according to an embodiment includes combining a first substrate having thin film transistors with a second substrate having black matrices and color filters using a sealant. Also, the method includes: forming an absorbent layer which is positioned to overlap with an edge of the sealant and burned by a laser; curing the sealant partially covered with the absorbent layer by irradiating UV light; burning the absorbent layer using a laser beam; and cutting the sealant through the burnt absorbent layer and the second substrate opposite to the absorbent layer using a scriber.
Abstract:
A viewing angle controllable liquid crystal display device including red, green and blue color pixels and a control pixel of an electrically controlled birefringence (ECB) mode and its fabrication method are disclosed. A gate insulating layer and a passivation layer at a pixel area of the ECB control pixel are removed by using a half-tone mask to additionally secure a cell gap to thus maximize efficiency of the ECB control pixel to improve a viewing angle control effect. In addition, a light leakage is prevented by reducing a step in the vicinity of the pixel area of the ECB control pixel.
