Abstract

A manufacturing method of a flat panel display according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes: coating a first adhering member on a first supporting plate; disposing a first substrate on the first adhering member; using ultrasonic waves to adhere the first supporting plate and the first substrate; and forming a gate line, a data line, a thin film transistor connected to the gate line and the data line, and a pixel electrode connected to the thin film transistor on the first substrate. According to the manufacturing method of the flat panel display according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the first adhering member made of the plurality of adhering particles is melted by using the ultrasonic waves without an additional adhering film to adhere the flexible first substrate and the first supporting plate, thereby reducing the overall manufacturing cost.

Claims (44)
