Abstract
A light-blocking black matrix is applied to a transparent substrate, then several coats of negative photoresists, with optimal spectral properties, are applied over the black matrix to create red, blue and green color filters. Then, the surface of the black matrix and the red, blue and green filters are preheated using infrared (IR) rays to remove any residual moisture or gas. Next, the surfaces of the black matrix and color filters are irradiated by ultraviolet (U.V.) rays to remove pigment residue remaining on the black matrix. This is followed by a UV irradiating step in which high-density ozone molecules (O,) are injected into a UV chamber and any final traces of pigment remaining on the surface are dissolved and volatilized in reaction to active oxygen from the ozone.
