Abstract: A method of fabricating a display panel includes providing a first substrate and a second substrate, forming an alignment material layer on one of the first substrate and the second substrate and patterning the alignment material layer to form an individual central portion, forming a hydrophobic surface extending from an edge of the individual central portion toward an edge of the one of the first substrate and the second substrate, forming a sealant material on the one of the first substrate and the second substrate, dropping a display medium material on the individual central portion, assembling the first substrate and the second substrate with the sealant material and curing the sealant material to form a sealant. A gap separates the sealant material from the individual central portion and the hydrophobic surface extends in the gap. The display medium material is restricted by the hydrophobic surface and does not contact the sealant material.

Abstract: A display panel includes a first substrate and a second substrate assembled together, a display medium layer between the first and second substrates, a sealant between the first and second substrates and surrounding the display medium layer, a first alignment layer between the first substrate and the display medium layer, a second alignment layer between the second substrate and the display medium layer, and a hydrophobic surface. One of the first alignment layer and the second alignment layer has an individual central portion. The hydrophobic surface extends from an edge of the individual central portion toward an edge of the one of the first substrate and the second substrate. The sealant at least extends between the hydrophobic surface and the edge of the one of the first substrate and the second substrate. The hydrophobic surface includes a hydrophobic material that is more hydrophobic than the individual central portion.

Abstract: A display device includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a display medium layer, a sealant, a first film layer, a first protection pattern, and a first alignment layer. The display medium layer is disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. The sealant is disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate and surrounds the display medium layer. The first film layer is disposed on the first substrate between the first substrate and the display medium layer. The first protection pattern is disposed between the first film layer and the sealant. The first alignment layer is disposed on the first substrate between the first film layer and the display medium layer. The first protection pattern is in contact with the sealant and exposed by the first alignment layer. The first protection pattern and the first alignment layer are both in contact with the first film layer.

Abstract: A display panel may have a first region and a second region encircled by the first region. The display panel may include first substrate, second substrate, sealant, conductive layer, and display medium layer. The first substrate may have a first recess in the first region. The second substrate may be disposed opposite to the first substrate. The sealant may be disposed between the first and second substrates, and may be received by the first recess. The conductive layer may be disposed on the first substrate, cover the first recess in a conformal manner, and be interposed between the first substrate and the sealant. The display medium layer may be disposed between the first and second substrates and may be encircled by the sealant. A thickness of the sealant may be larger than a distance between the first substrate and the second substrate in the second region.

Abstract: A display panel includes a first substrate and a second substrate assembled together with a sealant, and the resultant assembly encloses a display medium layer. An organic alignment layer and an inorganic alignment layer are disposed between the first substrate and the display medium layer. A first gap exists between the inorganic alignment layer and the sealant, and the organic alignment layer is located in the first gap. The inorganic alignment layer may contact the display medium layer, and the organic alignment layer may be in contact with the display medium layer in the first gap. A portion of the organic alignment layer may overlap the inorganic alignment layer. The inorganic alignment layer may be coated with a coating of hydrophobic molecules. The display panel may further include an opposite organic alignment layer and an opposite inorganic alignment layer between the second substrate and the display medium layer.

Abstract: A display panel according to an embodiment is provided and includes a top substrate having an outer surface; a display layer covered by the top substrate; a patterned light shielding layer disposed on the outer surface of the top substrate and located within the first region; and a patterned oxide layer disposed on the outer surface of the top substrate. The outer surface comprises a first region and a second region beside the first region. An edge of the patterned light shielding layer at least partially overlaps a boundary between the first region and the second region. The patterned oxide layer is located within one of the first region and the second region while exposes the other of the first region and the second region.
