Abstract

An exemplary embodiment of the present invention relates to a display panel having a plurality of pixels, the display panel including a first substrate, and a color filter including a plurality of first color filters disposed on the first substrate and a second color filter having a black color and disposed in the same layer as the first color filters.

Claims (27)

1. A method for repairing a panel, comprising:

removing at least a portion of a first color filter from a substrate comprising the first color filter to form an empty space; and

filling a black color ink in the empty space to form a second color filter.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising hydrophobic-treating a circumference of the empty space.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the hydrophobic-treating is one of a plasma treatment, Inkjet printing, and contact printing.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the plasma treatment comprises using SF 6 or CF 4 .

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the contact printing comprises:

contacting a stamping member to a hydrophobic solvent so that the hydrophobic solvent is adhered to the stamping member; and

contacting the stamping member adhered with the hydrophobic solvent to the circumference of the empty space.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the hydrophobic solvent comprises siloxane.

7. The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

forming a partition dividing the substrate into a plurality of regions; and

forming the first color filter in a region divided by the partition, wherein the partition encloses the empty space, and the plane shape of the stamping member is the same as the plane shape of the partition enclosing the empty space.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the hydrophobic solvent comprises siloxane.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the hydrophobic solvent comprises polydimethylsiloxane.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

forming a partition dividing the substrate into a plurality of regions; and

forming the first color filter in a region divided by the partition.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising hydrophobic-treating a circumference of the empty space, wherein, in the hydrophobic-treating of the circumference of the empty space, the hydrophobic-treating is applied to the partition.

12. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

forming a gate line, a data line crossing the gate line, and a thin film transistor connected to the gate line and the data line on a substrate;

forming the first color filter on the substrate; and

forming a pixel electrode on the first color filter.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein forming the first color filter on the substrate comprises:

forming a partition dividing the substrate into a plurality of regions; and

forming the first color filter in the region divided by the partition.

14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising hydrophobic-treating a circumference of the empty space, wherein in the hydrophobic-treating of the circumference of the empty space, the hydrophobic-treating is applied to the partition.
