Abstract

A method of fabricating a substrate for a liquid crystal display device includes: disposing a transparent substrate on a stage of a laser apparatus; irradiating a laser beam having a predetermined power onto the transparent substrate to form a light shielding region in the transparent substrate surrounding first to third light transmitting regions; and forming a color filter layer including red, green and blue sub-color filters respectively in the first to third light transmitting regions, wherein boundaries of the red, green and blue sub-color filters correspond to the light shielding region.

Claims (9)

1. A method of fabricating a substrate for a liquid crystal display device, comprising:

disposing a transparent substrate on a stage of a laser apparatus;

irradiating a laser beam having a predetermined power onto the transparent substrate to form a light shielding region in the transparent substrate surrounding first to third light transmitting regions, wherein the color of the light shielding region of the transparent substrate is changed to black by irradiating the laser beam; and

forming a color filter layer including red, green and blue sub-color filters respectively in the first to third light transmitting regions, wherein boundaries of the red, green and blue sub-color filters correspond to the light shielding region.

2. The method of fabricating a substrate for a liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the irradiating the laser beam includes moving the laser beam at a speed of about 7,000 mm/sec. to about 10,000 mm/sec with respect to the substrate.

3. The method of fabricating a substrate for a liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the predetermined power is about 100 W to about 200 W.

4. The method of fabricating a substrate for a liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the light shielding region has a first thickness that is one-fifth to one-third of a second thickness of the transparent substrate.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the laser apparatus is a neodymium-yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd—YAG) laser apparatus generating a laser beam having a wavelength of about 1064 nm.

6. The method of fabricating a substrate for a liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the transparent substrate is a glass having at least one of Cesium (Cs), Aluminum (Al), Rubidium (Rb), and Sodium (Na).
