Abstract

A display substrate includes a base substrate, a polarizing layer formed on the base substrate and including a polarizing pattern having a plurality of carbon nano-tubes arranged in a direction, and a pixel layer formed on the base substrate and including a plurality of pixel units.

Claims (20)

1. A method for manufacturing a display substrate, the method comprising:

forming a polarizing layer on a base substrate, the polarizing layer including a polarizing pattern comprising a plurality of carbon nano-tubes, wherein forming the polarizing layer comprises:

forming a photoresist on the base substrate;

patterning the photoresist to form a plurality of openings in the photoresist;

forming a hydrophobic layer in the openings;

removing the patterned photoresist layer;

performing a hydrophilic treatment on portions of the base substrate adjacent portions of the base substrate on which the hydrophobic layer is formed; and

forming a water layer on the base substrate, wherein the water layer flows away from the portions of the base substrate on which the hydrophobic layer is formed to the portions of the base substrate on which the hydrophilic treatment was performed; and

forming a pixel layer having a plurality of pixel units on the base substrate.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polarizing layer is formed on a first surface of the base substrate, and the pixel layer is formed on a second surface of the base substrate, wherein the first surface is opposite to the second surface with respect to the base substrate.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pixel layer is formed on the polarizing layer.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic layer comprises a self assembled monolayer and is formed in a non-polarizing region of the base substrate.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the water layer is formed in a polarizing region of the base substrate.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein forming the polarizing layer further comprises forming the polarizing pattern comprising carbon nano-tubes on the water layer, and not on the self-assembled monolayer.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the patterned photoresist exposes the non-polarizing region and covers the polarizing region.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein forming the water layer comprises blade-coating water on the base substrate.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein performing the hydrophilic treatment comprises treating a surface of the polarizing region using oxygen gas before forming the water layer.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein each surface of the carbon nano-tubes is hydrophilic.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein forming the polarizing layer further comprises providing an electric field or a magnetic field to the base substrate in a moving direction of a blade.

12. The method of claim 1 , further comprising forming a protective layer on the base substrate, the protective layer covering the whole base substrate including the polarizing pattern.
