Abstract

A method for forming a display panel including the following steps is provided. A barrier layer having a plurality of openings is formed. A color filter layer having a plurality of units and a plurality of black matrix structures among the plurality of units is formed over the barrier layer. A first width of the plurality of openings and a second width of the plurality of black matrix structures are determined based on a first aperture ratio of the barrier layer and a second aperture ratio of the color filter layer.

Claims (30)

1. A method for forming a display panel, comprising:

forming a barrier layer having a plurality of openings; and

forming a color filter layer having a plurality of units and a plurality of black matrix structures among said plurality of units over said barrier layer;

wherein a first width of said plurality of openings is determined based on a first aperture ratio of said barrier layer and a second width of said plurality of black matrix structures is determined based on a second aperture ratio of said color filter layer; and

wherein said first width and said second width are determined based on the following steps:

determining a difference between said first width and said second width; and

obtaining said first width making a product of said first aperture ratio and said second aperture ratio have a maximum.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein at least two views are generated by said display panel, and said difference is determined based on a tolerable overlap between said at least two views.

3. A display panel, comprising:

a barrier layer having a plurality of openings; and

a color filter layer having a plurality of units and a plurality of black matrix structures among said plurality of units over said barrier layer;

wherein a first width of said plurality of openings is determined based on a first aperture ratio of said barrier layer and a second width of said plurality of black matrix structures is determined based on a second aperture ratio of said color filter layer; and

wherein to determine said first width and said second width, a difference between said first width and said second width is determined and said first width making a product of said first aperture ratio and said second aperture ratio have a maximum is obtained.

4. The display panel according to claim 3 , wherein at least two views are generated by said display panel, and said difference is determined based on a tolerable overlap between said at least two views.

5. The display panel according to claim 3 , wherein said first width is substantially equal to said second width.

6. The display panel according to claim 3 , wherein said first width is larger than said second width.

7. The display panel according to claim 3 , wherein said first width is smaller than said second width.

8. The display panel according to claim 3 , further comprising:

a plurality of array metals over said color filter layer, wherein at least a portion of said plurality of array metals overlaps said plurality of black matrix structures.

9. The display panel according to claim 8 , further comprising:

a backlight unit below said barrier layer.

10. The display panel according to claim 8 , further comprising:

a backlight unit over said plurality of array metals.

11. The display panel according to claim 3 , further comprising:

a plurality of array metals between said barrier layer and said color filter layer, wherein at least a portion of said plurality of array metals overlaps said plurality of black matrix structures.

12. The display panel according to claim 11 , further comprising:

a backlight unit over said color filter layer.

13. The display panel according to claim 11 , further comprising:

a backlight unit below said barrier layer.

14. The display panel according to claim 3 , wherein said first width and said second width refer to the widths of said plurality of openings and said plurality of black matrix structures along the horizontal direction of said display panel, the vertical direction of said display panel, or a combination thereof.
