Abstract

A fabricating method of a display device includes: forming a thin film by coating a liquid polymer material over a substrate using spin coating or slit coating; forming a touch screen panel (TSP) over the thin film; separating the substrate from the thin film; and placing the TSP over a surface of the display device. The TSP includes: first and second sensing patterns alternately arranged, the first sensing patterns formed to be connected to one another for each column, the second sensing patterns formed to be connected to one another for each row; first connection lines electrically connecting the first sensing patterns; connection patterns connecting the second sensing patterns and formed in a different layer from the first and second sensing patterns; and a first insulating layer formed between the connection patterns and the first and second sensing patterns. The sensing patterns are formed of a transparent conductive material.

Claims (13)

1. A fabricating method of a display device including a touch screen panel, the method comprising:

coating a liquid polymer material over a substrate using at least one of spin coating and slit coating, thereby forming a thin film;

forming a touch screen panel over the thin film, wherein the touch screen panel comprises:

first and second sensing patterns alternately arranged, the first sensing patterns being formed to be connected to one another for each column having the same X coordinate, the second sensing patterns being formed to be connected to one another for each row having the same Y coordinate, wherein the first and second sensing patterns are formed of a transparent conductive material;

first connection lines that electrically connect the first sensing patterns;

connection patterns formed in a different layer from the first and second sensing patterns, the connection patterns electrically connecting the second sensing patterns; and

a first insulating layer formed between the connection patterns and the first and second sensing patterns;

separating the substrate from the thin film; and

placing the touch screen panel over a surface of the display device.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid polymer material comprises polyimide.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the thin film is less than about 1/10 of a thickness of the substrate.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the separating of the substrate from the thin film comprises instantaneously applying heat to a bottom surface of the substrate.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the separating of the carrier substrate from the thin film is comprises scanning and irradiating a laser beam to a bottom surface of the substrate.
