Abstract
A backplane with multiple arrayed electrodes positioned on the backplane is provided in a method of fabricating a liquid crystal (LC) panel. The method begins with coating an alignment layer on the backplane. By performing a rubbing process, multiple alignment trenches are formed on the alignment layer. A photoresist layer is then formed on the alignment layer. By performing a lithography process, both a side frame, having at least one slit, and multiple photoresist spacers(PR spacers) are formed on the alignment layer. A gasket seal is coated on the side frame and the multiple PR spacers. By performing a lamination process, a transparent conductive layer is laminated on the backplane. A liquid crystal filling (LC filling) processis then performed to fill a cell gap between the backplane and the transparent conductive layer with liquid crystal. Finally, an end sealing process is performed to seal the slit.
