Method of manufacturing color filter using inkjet
View Patent ↗A method of manufacturing a color filter using an inkjet In the method, a region of the color filter in which a plurality of nozzles are sequentially turned on is a first region, a region of the color filter in which all of the plurality of nozzles are turned on is a second region, and a region of the color filter in which the plurality of nozzles are sequentially turned off is a third region, and when the amount of ink discharged from each nozzle gradually decreases as the number of simultaneously turned-on nozzles increases, the number of ink drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles gradually increases in the first region and gradually decreases in the third region to maintain a uniform ink thickness over the entire color filter.
1. A method of manufacturing a color filter using an inkjet, the method comprising:
discharging ink into a plurality of pixel areas divided by a matrix using an inkjet head comprising a plurality of nozzles is moved above the color filter while being tilted by a predetermined angle with respect to the color filter, the color filter comprising:
a first region in which the plurality of nozzles are sequentially turned on,
a second region in which all of the plurality of nozzles are turned on, and
a third region in which the plurality of nozzles are sequentially turned off; and
when an amount of ink discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles gradually increases and decreases as the number of simultaneously turned-on nozzles increases and decreases, respectively, the number of ink drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles gradually decreasing and increasing in the first region and in the third region, respectively, to maintain a uniform ink thickness over the entire color filter.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, when the number of ink drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles in the second region is set to a minimal value, the numbers of ink drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles in the first and third regions are larger than the minimal value, respectively.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the number of ink drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles in the first region gradually decreases corresponding to the number of simultaneously turned-on nozzles.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the number of ink drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles in the third region gradually increases corresponding to the number of simultaneously turned-on nozzles.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the numbers of ink drops in the first and third regions corresponding to the number of the simultaneously turned-on nozzles are the same.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein voltages applied to each of the plurality of nozzles are adjusted to control the amount of the ink discharged from the plurality of the nozzles.
7. A method of manufacturing a color filter using an inkjet, the method comprising:
discharging ink into a plurality of pixel areas divided by a matrix using an inkjet head comprising a plurality of nozzles is moved above the color filter while being tilted by a predetermined angle with respect to the color filter, the color filter comprising:
a first region in which the plurality of nozzles are sequentially turned on,
a second region in which all of the plurality of nozzles are turned on, and
a third region in which the plurality of nozzles are sequentially turned off; and
when an amount of ink discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles is gradually changed according to the number of turned-on nozzles, gradually changing the number of ink drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles in the first region and in the third region to maintain a uniform ink thickness over the entire color filter.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the changing of the number of ink drops comprises gradually decreasing the number of ink drops discharged from the nozzles in the first region when the amount of ink discharged from each nozzle gradually increases in the first region as the number of simultaneously turned-on nozzles gradually increases.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the changing of the number of ink drops comprises gradually increasing the number of ink drops discharged from the nozzles in the first region when the amount of ink discharged from each nozzle gradually decreases in the first region as the number of simultaneously turned-on nozzles gradually increases.
10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the changing of the number of ink drops comprises gradually decreasing the number of ink drops discharged from the nozzles in the third region when the amount of ink discharged from each nozzle gradually increases in the third region as the number of simultaneously turned-on nozzles gradually increases.
11. The method of claim 7 , wherein the changing of the number of ink drops comprises gradually increasing the number of ink drops discharged from the nozzles in the third region when the amount of ink discharged from each nozzle gradually decreases in the third region as the number of simultaneously turned-on nozzles gradually increases.
12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the numbers of ink drops in the first and third regions corresponding to the number of the simultaneously turned-on nozzles are the same.
13. The method of claim 7 , wherein the number of ink drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles in the second region is set to a minimal value, and the number of drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles in the first and third regions are larger than the minimal value, respectively.
14. The method of claim 7 , wherein the number of ink drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles in the second region is set to a maximal value, and the number of drops discharged from each of the plurality of nozzles in the first and third regions are less than the maximal value, respectively.
