Abstract
Provided is a microcapsule patterning method for patterning electrophoretic microcapsules on a substrate, the method including the steps of: preparing a microcapsule slurry in which microcapsules and a water-soluble binder are mixed; putting the microcapsule slurry into a liquid ejector having injection and ejection ports formed therein; and applying the microcapsule slurry contained in the liquid ejector onto the substrate so as to pattern pixels using the microcapsules. Accordingly, specific patterns are formed without physical and chemical damage to the microcapsules. Therefore, the patterns can be used as pixels of flat panel displays. Further, through the patterning, it is possible to implement a color display device which does not exhibit performance degradation.
