Abstract

Systems for displaying images and methods for fabricating the same. A representative system includes a substrate having a display region and a peripheral region, and a mosaic color filter pattern formed in the peripheral region. The mosaic color filter pattern includes a plurality of separated pillars and a plurality of channels adjacent to the pillars. Specifically the volume ratio between the pillars and the channel is 1:5 to 2:1, preferably 1:3 to 1:1.

Claims (20)

1. A system for displaying images, comprising:

a substrate having a display region and a peripheral region; and

a mosaic color filter pattern formed in the peripheral region, comprising:

a plurality of separated pillars; and

a plurality of channels adjacent to the pillars, wherein the volume ratio between the pillars and the channel is 1:5 to 2:1,

wherein an opening is located within the mosaic color filter and along a boundary of the mosaic color filter, and there is no separated pillar and channel disposed within the opening.

2. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the mosaic color filter pattern is formed on a dummy region.

3. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the opening serves as an alignment key.

4. The system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a display panel, wherein the mosaic color filter pattern forms a portion of the display panel.

5. The system as claimed in claim 4 , further comprising an electronic device, wherein the electronic device comprises:

the display panel; and

an input unit coupled to the display panel operative to provide input to the display panel such that the display panel displays images.

6. The system as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the electronic device is a mobile phone, digital camera, PDA (personal digital assistant), notebook computer, desktop computer, television, car display, or portable DVD player.

7. A method of fabricating a system for displaying images, comprising:

providing a substrate having a display region and a peripheral region; and

forming a mosaic color filter pattern on the peripheral region, wherein the mosaic color filter pattern has a plurality of separated pillars and a plurality of channels adjacent to the pillars, wherein an opening is located within the mosaic color filter and along a boundary of the mosaic color filter, and there is no separated pillar and channel disposed within the opening.

8. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the mosaic color filter pattern is formed by photolithography with a mosaic shadow mask.

9. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the volume ratio between the pillars and the channel is 1:5 to 2:1.

10. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the mosaic color filter pattern is formed on a dummy area of the substrate.

11. The system as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the opening serves as an alignment key.
