Abstract

A liquid crystal display panel includes a substrate, a thin film transistor array, a circuit, and a dummy circuit. One surface of the substrate is divided into a display region and a wiring region. The thin film transistor array is formed on the display region. The circuit and the dummy circuit are formed on the wiring region, the dummy circuit is adjacent to the circuit, and the circuit and the dummy circuit protrude from the substrate.

Claims (18)

1. A liquid crystal display panel, comprising:

a substrate having a surface, wherein the surface has a display region and a wiring region located outside of the display region, and the display region has a first edge and a second edge intersecting with the first edge;

a thin film transistor array formed on the display region;

a plurality of first circuits formed on the wiring region and adjacent to the first edge, wherein the first circuits are electrically connected to the thin film transistor array;

a plurality of first support structures formed on the wiring region and adjacent to the first edge of the display region, wherein the first circuits are arranged alternately with the first support structures, and the at least one first support structure has no electrical connection with the thin film transistor array; and

a other support structure region formed on the wiring region between the second edge and an edge of the substrate, wherein the other support structure region has a first width at a first end farther from the second edge and a second width at a second end closer to the second edge, and the first width is larger than the second width.

2. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein at least one gap between the first circuits is filled with at least one of the first support structures.

3. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the first circuits and the first support structures are arranged in a line.

4. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of other circuits for electrically connecting the first circuits to the thin film transistor array, wherein at least one space between the other circuits is filled with the other support structure region.

5. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 4 , wherein a thickness of the other circuits protruding from the surface of the substrate is substantially equal to a thickness of the other support structure region.

6. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 4 , wherein the other support structure region is disposed on the wiring region.

7. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the other support structure region is a dummy pattern.

8. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the first circuits protruding from the surface of the substrate is substantially equal to a thickness of the first support structures.

9. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , wherein the first support structures further comprise a plurality of first dummy pattern, and the first dummy patterns are mated with each other to form a dummy patterned layer.

10. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , further comprising an alignment film covered on the first circuits and the first support structures.

11. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , further comprising an alignment film covering on the other support structure region.

12. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of other circuits arranged on the wiring region adjacent to the second edge, wherein the other support structure region is arranged between two adjacent the other circuits.

13. The liquid crystal display panel of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of second circuits formed on the wiring region adjacent to the second edge, wherein the other circuits is electrically connected the first circuits to the second circuits.
