Printed circuit film, display device, and method of fabricating printed circuit film
A method of fabricating a printed circuit film including the steps of preparing a base film, and a plurality of lead wires disposed on the base film, the plurality of lead wires spaced apart from each other in a first direction and extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction, and forming a bonding member including a conductive member disposed to overlap a central portion of each of the plurality of lead wires, a first non-conductive member disposed to overlap a first portion of the plurality of lead wires in the second direction, and a second non-conductive member disposed to overlap a second portion of the plurality of lead wires in the second direction.
1. A method of fabricating a printed circuit film, comprising the steps of:
preparing a base film, and a plurality of lead wires disposed on the base film, the plurality of lead wires spaced apart from each other in a first direction and extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction; and
forming a bonding member comprising a conductive member disposed to overlap only a central portion of each of the plurality of lead wires, a first non-conductive member disposed to overlap a first portion of the plurality of lead wires in the second direction, and a second non- conductive member disposed to overlap a second portion of the plurality of lead wires in the second direction,
wherein the central portion is disposed between the first portion and the second portion and the conductive member does not overlap the first non-conductive portion and the second non-conductive portion.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the conductive member comprises a solder material.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the conductive member is formed on the plurality of lead wires, and
the conductive member comprises a metal paste, a metal film, or metal particles.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the first non-conductive member and the second non-conductive member comprises at least one of resin, urethane, or epoxy.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the conductive member is disposed so as not to overlap a space between adjacent lead wires.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising the steps of:
hydrophilically processing a surface of each of the plurality of lead wires facing the bonding member after the preparing of the plurality of lead wires; and
hydrophobically processing a surface of the base film facing the plurality of lead wires and not overlapping the plurality of lead wires.
7. A method of fabricating a display device, comprising the steps of:
polishing side surfaces of a first substrate, a first substrate comprising a connection wiring on the first substrate, and a second substrate facing the first substrate; and
adhering a printed circuit film onto the polished side surfaces of the first substrate and the second substrate,
wherein the printed circuit film comprises a base film, lead wires on the base film, and a bonding member configured to attach the printed circuit film to the first substrate and the second substrate, and
the bonding member comprises a conductive member connecting the lead wires to the connection wiring, and a non-conductive member disposed around the conductive member and disposed in a first space between adjacent lead wires but not disposed in a second space between the adjacent lead wires having the conductive member disposed thereon.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the step of adhering of the printed circuit film onto the side surfaces of the first substrate and the second substrate comprises the steps of:
placing the printed circuit film on the polished side surfaces of the first substrate and the second substrate; and
applying heat and pressure from an outside of the printed circuit film.
