This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 2001-25388, filed on May 10, 2001, under 35 U.S.C. � 119, the entirety of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device, and more particularly to a method of fabricating a liquid crystal cell.
2. Description of Related Art
Recently, liquid crystal display (LCD) devices which are light and thin, and posses low power consumption characteristics are used in office automation equipment, video units and the like. Such LCDs typically use a liquid crystal (LC) interposed between upper and lower substrates with an optical anisotropy. The upper substrate, referred to as a color filter substrate, usually includes common electrodes and color filters. The lower substrate, referred to as an array substrate, includes switching elements, such as thin film transistors (TFTs) and pixel electrodes. Since the LC has thin and long LC molecules causing an alignment direction of the LC molecules, the alignment direction of the LC molecules can be controlled by applying an electric field to the LC molecules.
A brief explanation of a conventional liquid crystal cell manufacturing process and its operation will be discussed for better understanding of the present invention.
Common electrodes and pixel electrodes are formed on upper and lower substrates, respectively. A seal is then formed on the lower substrate. The upper and lower substrates are then bonded together using a seal such that the common electrodes of the upper substrate and the pixel electrodes of the lower substrate face each other, forming liquid crystal cells. Liquid crystal material is then injected into those cells through injection holes. The injection holes are then sealed. Finally, polarizing films are attached to the outer surfaces of the upper and lower substrates. The pixel and common electrodes generate electric fields that control the light passing through the liquid crystal cells. By controlling the electric fields, desired characters or images are displayed.
The liquid crystal cell process has few repeated steps compared with the TFT process or the color filter process. The whole process can be divided into the steps of forming the orientation film, forming the cell gap, injecting the liquid crystal and cutting the liquid crystal cell.
At step ST1, an initial cleaning is performed after an upper substrate and a lower substrate are prepared. This step is for eliminating the impurities on the substrate before forming an orientation film.
At step ST2, the orientation film is formed on the upper and lower substrates. This step includes deposition and rubbing processes of the orientation film or polymer thin film. The formation of the orientation film enables the liquid crystal to operate normally by the uniform orientation of the liquid crystal molecules and is needed for the uniform display property. The most important part of this step is to deposit the orientation film uniformly over the wide area. A polymer compound of the polyimide family is widely used for the typical orientation film, and the deposited polyimide thin film polymer compound becomes the orientation film through the preliminary drying and the hardening process. The rubbing process scours the orientation film along one direction with the rubbing cloth and the liquid crystal molecules align along the rubbing direction.
At step ST3, a seal printing and a spacer deposition on the substrates are performed. The seal patterns form cell spaces that will receive the liquid crystal material and prevent the interposed liquid crystal material from leaking out of the completed liquid crystal cell. The seal patterning is the process of patterning a thermosetting plastic mixed with glass fiber.
A screen-print method is widely used for this process. The next process is spraying the spacers. The spacers have a definite size and act to maintain a precise and uniform space between the upper and the lower substrates. Accordingly, the spacers are placed with a uniform density on the substrate using either a wet spray method, in which the spacers are mixed in an alcohol and then sprayed; or a dry spray method, in which only the spacers are sprayed.
At step ST4, the upper and lower substrates are aligned and attached. The alignment margin, which is less than a few micrometers, is determined by the substrate design. If the upper and lower substrates are aligned and attached beyond the alignment margin, light will leak out such that the liquid crystal cell cannot adequately perform its function.
At step ST5, the liquid crystal cell fabricated through the previous four steps is cut into unit liquid crystal cells. Generally, after a plurality of unit liquid crystal cells are formed on a wide glass substrate, the liquid crystal cell is divided into the plurality of unit liquid crystal cells. The cutting process typically includes a scribing process using a diamond pen to form cutting lines on the substrate, and a breaking process for separating by force the substrate along the scribed lines.
At step ST6, the liquid crystal material is injected into the unit liquid crystal cells. Since each unit liquid crystal cell is several hundred square centimeters in area but has only a few micrometers gap between the substrates, a vacuum injection method using a pressure difference is effectively and widely used. Generally, since injecting the liquid crystal material into the unit liquid crystal cells takes the longest manufacturing time, for manufacturing efficiency, it is important to have optimum conditions for the vacuum injection process.
A sealing process, which prevents the liquid crystal material from leaking through the injection hole, is performed after the injection.
After the injection and sealing processes, an inspection process and a grinding process are performed. Then polarization plates are attached on the outer surfaces of the upper and lower substrates so that the liquid crystal cell can be completed.
However, in this process of manufacturing a liquid crystal cell, the total turnaround time (TAT) becomes extended due to the time required for the liquid crystal injection, and thus the fabrication efficiency and production yields are decreased.
To solve these problems, a dispenser method, in which the liquid crystal materials are distributed to the substrate by a syringe, is suggested. The deposition process of the liquid crystal materials by the dispenser method is performed between steps ST3 and ST4 of
After this deposition process, an upper substrate is temporarily fixed to the lower substrate with an assembly and the upper and lower substrates are pressed so that the dispensed liquid crystal materials can be spread to the entire substrates. Then the upper and lower substrates are attached by hardening the seal pattern through a process of UV and heat treatment.
In the process of forming the liquid crystal layer by the conventional vacuum injection method, the injection hole is formed before this process and sealed after this process. On the other hand, in the process of forming a liquid crystal layer by the conventional dispenser method, since the liquid crystal materials are directly dispensed onto the substrate, the forming and sealing processes of the injection hole are not necessary.
However, the process of forming a liquid crystal layer by the conventional dispenser method has some drawbacks. First, in the case of large-sized substrate, the dispensing time becomes long due to an increase in the number of points.
Second, to lessen the dispensing time, if the volume of one droplet of the liquid crystal materials is increased, the uniformity of the volume is hard to maintain. Moreover, if the size of the point is increased, the cell gap does not become uniform due to a reduction of the planarization during the attachment process of the upper and lower substrates and the spots of the display occur due to the damage of the orientation film.
Third, if impurities exist on the substrate or in the liquid crystal materials before the deposition process, these impurities produce partial surface spots between the dispensed region and the other region.
Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a liquid crystal display device that substantially obviates one or more of the problems due to the limitations and disadvantages of the related art.
An object of the present invention is to provide a method of depositing liquid crystal materials wherein the liquid crystal materials are simultaneously deposited on a wide area in a short time.
Additional features and advantages of the present invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and in part will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by a practice of the present invention. The objectives and other advantages of the invention will be realized and attained by the structure particularly pointed out in the written description and claims hereof as well as the appended drawings.
To achieve these and other advantages and in accordance with the purpose of the present invention, as embodied and broadly described, a method of forming a liquid crystal layer on a substrate having a sealed pattern includes: preparing a liquid crystal material in a projecting portion; applying a vibration and a pressure to the projecting portion so as to emit the liquid crystal material from the projecting portion, and depositing the emitted liquid crystal material on the substrate.
In another aspect, an apparatus of forming a liquid crystal layer on a substrate having a seal pattern includes: a projecting portion having a liquid crystal material; a resonator generating a vibration, and a resonating plate transmitting the vibration to the projecting portion.
It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory and are intended to provide further explanation of the invention as claimed.
The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given hereinbelow and the accompanying drawings which are given by way of illustration only, and thus do not limit the present invention, and wherein:
Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, an example of which being illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
The ON/OFF of the voltage applied to the inkjet apparatus 120 is adjusted by the position of the moving substrate 110. In the forming process of the liquid crystal layer, according to the present invention, a voltage is applied to the resonator 122 of the inkjet system 120 (ON) at a first position, which is an upper end of the substrate 110. Then, the resonator 122 generates a vibration of a specific frequency and the resonating plate 124 also has a vibration of the same frequency. Accordingly, a constant projecting pressure is maintained in the projecting portion 126 and liquid crystal materials are emitted to a depositing portion 116 of the substrate 110 through the plurality of orifices 129 of the nozzle plate 128. After the beginning of the emission of the liquid crystal materials 114, the substrate 110 moves to a second position, which is a lower end of the substrate 110, and the liquid crystal materials 114 are uniformly deposited during this moving of the substrate 110. The voltage applied to the inkjet system 120 is stopped at the second position of the substrate 110. This process is repeated for a residual depositing portion continuously.
The substrate 110 is a lower substrate through the array process and ST1 to ST3 of
In another embodiment of the present invention, the liquid crystal materials can be emitted on the entire depositing portion during one-step moving by varying the size of nozzle plate or the number of orifices according to the substrate size.
Consequently, in the deposition process of the liquid crystal materials by using the inkjet system according to the present invention, since the surface area of the deposited liquid crystal materials is wide, the air bubble included in the liquid crystal materials are easy to eliminate. Also, the spots of the orientation film or surface of the substrate can be prevented. Moreover, the process time can be reduced by increasing the pressing speed of the attachment process and decreasing the waiting time before the hardness of the seal pattern. Since the surface of the substrate is more planarized in the attachment process, a uniform cell gap is achieved.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variation can be made in the method of manufacturing a flat pane display device of the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, it is intended that the present invention cover the modifications and variations of the present invention as defined by the appended claims and the equivalents thereof.

is still very sexy even at her age. She got divorced long ago and George is the
only her son. He just turned 18. They are great friends even though many teenagers
at his age have problems with parents. The only thing that bothered him in his
relations with mothers is that she was extremely jealous to his girlfriends. He
couldn�t understand why till one night she came to his bedroom is short robe to
talk about it. As you may see their conversation ended with really wild and messy
Amanda�s sons grew up it was very painful for her to watch them having fun at
parties and clubs and dating young girls. She did her best to stay # 1 for them.
Sons often joked that she�s she only woman in the world they will ever love. Once
they had pretty frank conversation about sex and Amanda said desperately she�s
not able to explain everything they ask her about but she�s able to show! That
was nasty but her sons took her right. It was their first incest experience so
they recorded it on video.
grew up without mother. She died when Helen was a just small kid. Her father Artur
took care of her, protected and cherished her. Sure, for Helen loved him not like
a father but like a man. But she couldn�t confessed herself in it till the day
he kissed her lips while she was sleeping. She woke up and finally realized how
happy she is. She never enjoyed sex with guys from her college as much as she
enjoyed it with Artur. She got her cunt eaten out as never before and then stuffed
with her father�s strong cock.

TORONTO - The overhaul of "Hockey Night in Canada" has begun.
Rogers executives took over a CBC-TV studio Monday to tout an upcoming NHL broadcast season that, under its guidance, will "be a season like never before" with a "fresh face."
That fresh face is CBC-TV personality George Stroumboulopoulos, who will be the new host of "Hockey Night in Canada," taking over from veteran anchor Ron MacLean, whose Saturday night role will be trimmed to co-host of Coach's Corner.
Rogers boss Scott Moore admits the 41-year-old Stroumboulopoulos was recruited in a bid to attract a broader audience to the media giant's various sports channels, especially as younger viewers appear to be increasingly tuning out of TV entirely.
"We want to get a little bit younger, we want to catch that demo that is not necessarily coming to the television at all — that are either playing video games or not going out and participating in the games — we want to get a new breed of Canadian fans that get passionate about the games," Moore, president of Sportsnet and NHL properties, said following a televised news conference.
"I think George does that, I think George brings a different sensibility but one of the great things is having him with the rest of the team. He'll sort of be like that 'Sesame Street' thing — one of these things is not like the others — but he'll bring something different and his own unique take on hockey broadcasting."
The shakeup is Rogers' first major personnel change since acquiring the NHL broadcast rights in a blockbuster $5.2-billion deal in November.
MacLean and Don Cherry will continue to host their popular Coach's Corner segment, and MacLean will still host the annual "Hockey Day in Canada" show. In addition, MacLean will be involved in a new Sunday night telecast, "Hometown Hockey Community Celebration," on City.
Meanwhile, Sportsnet personalities Daren Millard and Jeff Marek will also be part of the Rogers broadcast package. Millard, who will continue to host "Hockey Central at Noon" on Sportsnet 590 The Fan, will also host "Wednesday Night Hockey" on Sportsnet. Marek will be at the helm of "Thursday Night Hockey" on Sportsnet 360 in addition to weekend pre-game shows on Sportsnet.
The new HNIC broadcasts will continue to be shot at CBC studios and air on CBC-TV, the result of a four-year sub-licensing deal, Moore said. But the HNIC brand will also be used on City, Sportsnet, Sportsnet One, Sportsnet 360 and FX Canada, offering up as many as seven games on Saturdays.
The announcement came as CBC announced that Stroumboulopoulos's Gemini Award-winning chat show "George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight" would be cancelled after the completion of its 10th season.
"I knew that you can only do something for so long before it's time to try something else," said Stroumboulopoulos, a rabid Montreal Canadiens fan who began his broadcasting career as a radio reporter at the Fan 590 (now Sportsnet 590 The Fan).
"I love the Rogers component but I love the CBC component as well and it felt like a natural fit. But yeah, I knew that the show as a daily show was going to change and I'm still talking to the CBC about what we can work together on in the next little while. I have no interest in walking away from it and I've been led to believe that they don't either."
A former MuchMusic VJ known for his pierced ears and black clothing, Stroumboulopoulos will no doubt bring some edge to "Hockey Night in Canada," which has been headed by the straightlaced 53-year-old MacLean since the mid-80s.
MacLean appeared to take a light-hearted dig at the handover Monday as he joined the press conference, shaking Stroumboulopoulos's hand with the barely audible quip: "Don't screw this up, it's a big show."
Later, he said he was glad to continue working with Cherry on Coach's Corner and understood why Rogers was keen to revamp "Hockey Night in Canada." He harkened back to how he took over the reins from former host Dave Hodge.
"I think it's a great idea to get George — someone younger, it's always good," he said. "Dave was 26 when he started, I was 26 when I started and we sort of broke in as the fresh faces to a great team."
He looked forward to Stroumboulopoulos's spin on the venerable Saturday night staple.
"George can handle the show — he's a great ringleader," said MacLean, who hosted the show for nearly 30 years. "And (with) his interview skills, that just really hasn't been a part of the Saturdays for the last little while. I think they will want to re-trigger that skill, of a good interview."
The change could meet resistance from some traditional hockey fans but Calgary Flames executive Brian Burke thinks Stroumboulopoulos is "brilliant."
"I don't think there are a lot of guys who could switch from a news format to a sports format, but he can," Burke said at the NHL general managers meetings in Florida. "He's a brilliant guy, I think."
"I had no idea that was coming, but I'm a big fan of his," he added. "It surprises me, but that's good news."
Cherry said Stroumboulopoulos better know his stuff or he won't last.
"You have to be honest and the camera ... you can't lie," said Cherry. "I've seen guys come and go, they're entertaining, but you can't fool the public."
Moore said talk of the shakeup began as soon as Rogers secured the NHL broadcast rights, although details were only recently confirmed. A broader cast of analysts and panellists has yet to be announced, he added.
And even though MacLean will have a more limited role on Saturday night, Moore insisted he's a key part of Rogers' hockey coverage.
"I was always a proponent that in any way shape or form Ron was a key part of what we were going to do going forward and if we were going to bring somebody else in we needed to find someplace that Ron could truly help us build something," said Moore. "I think that's what we have on Sunday night."
MacLean noted that his new Sunday night gig — which will also be hosted in studio by Stroumboulopoulos — ends any possibility of returning to a possible new season of CBC's reality show "Battle of the Blades," which also airs Sundays. But he expected to continue his presence on CBC through upcoming Olympic coverage.
Moore said adding hockey to City's Saturday and Sunday night prime-time lineups should help promote the overall schedule. He noted that Saturday nights have typically featured OLN repeat programming.
He expected Sunday night hockey to draw a much bigger audience to City's prime time, allowing the network to push weekday comedies including "2 Broke Girls" and "Mike and Molly."
"Sunday nights we have an advantage in that we will not be buying Hollywood programming for at least six months of the year," he said. "I think that's good for the Canadian broadcast landscape, I think it's good for hockey, it's also a great lead-in for City News which will move to 10 o'clock on Sundays."
As far as his role as the new face of "Hockey Night in Canada," Stroumboulopoulos said he didn't expect to change things that much. He stressed that he expects to stay out of analysis and focus on his strengths as an interviewer.
"I'm just going to bring me to the team," he said. "I am who I am, I have my life experiences, and my professional experiences.
"But I don't think that the way the show has been done needs to be ... like, 'Oh, let's bring in the new guy and get something drastically different.' That's not what I do. I just come here to be hopefully a quality host to the show that can put everybody else in a position to shine."

MADRID, Nov. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) today unveiled plans to infuse SAP innovations into the world's most powerful business network. Through the recent combination of SAP and Ariba, an SAP company, close to 1 million companies are now connected to the Ariba Network — more than any other trading network. As a result, enterprises are collaborating in new ways that help drive unprecedented levels of productivity in their sales, procurement, invoice and payment processes. The introduction of SAP innovations in social, mobile, cloud and the in-memory technology of the SAP HANA® platform will drive global business-to-business collaboration and even higher levels of efficiency and insights through the business network. The announcement was made at SAPPHIRE® NOW + SAP® TechEd, being held as a co-located event in Madrid from November 13-16.

SAP today also announced several rapid-deployment solutions, to make it fast and simple for customer running SAP® Business Suite software to rapidly integrate with the Ariba Network and reap the benefits that it provides:
- Product catalog integration between SAP Business Suite, including logistics materials management and supplier relationship management, and the Ariba Network, based on SAP NetWeaver® Process Orchestration software
- Purchase order and invoice automation for automated exchange of documents in the procure-to-pay and order-to-cash processes
"Online social networks tools have transformed our personal relationships by connecting us to people and information in new ways," said SAP Co-CEO Jim Hagemann Snabe. "We are enabling businesses of all sizes to do the same. With 1 million companies connected, SAP and Ariba have created the largest business network in the world. Together we will deliver game-changing gains in productivity, collaboration and agility across the entire value chain of suppliers, partners and customers."
Removing Business Boundaries
Through the acquisition of Ariba, SAP has created a new operating model for business, which effectively eliminates the boundaries between individual companies. Enterprises can now work in a fully-networked environment to more efficiently discover, connect and collaborate with their customers, suppliers and other partners. In addition, new processes and community-based insights are enabled that can drive unprecedented levels of productivity across more geographies and lines of business. Using the Ariba Network, companies today can:
- Receive active leads from a global community of qualified buyers rather than simply tracking them
- Manage orders and statuses in real time rather than chasing paper
- Accelerate payments for goods and services and optimize cash by making early payments
- Gain new community-based intelligence and insights to make more informed decisions
Buyers Benefit: Finding the Right Fit, Faster
PPG, a leading coatings and specialty products company, is a prime example of a large enterprise currently using Ariba Discovery, the premier service for matching buyers and sellers globally delivered via the Ariba Network. The US$15 billion company is able to quickly expand its pool of sellers beyond local boundaries, gain unique qualifying information from network-based transactional history and member-generated performance ratings and increase competition in their sourcing events worldwide.
"With other channels, it used to take us considerable time to assess the quality of sellers – and we weren't even sure of their quality," said Dan Wolfred, senior manager, Process & Technology, PPG Industries. "Ariba Discovery efficiently manages the new seller identification process and we use it on a global basis because of its extensive reach. It saves our buyers significant time finding new sellers."
Suppliers Benefit: Lighting-Fast Time to Cash, Higher Productivity
In addition to getting access to new business opportunities with the world's largest community of Global 2000 buying organizations, sellers gain new levels of process efficiency and transparency. Ariba Network user have reported 50 percent faster transaction processing cycles, 60 percent improvements in order accuracy, double-digit increases in revenues with existing and new customers on the network and 20 percent faster payment. The Ariba Network also offers new types of collaboration and insights only available in a networked model.
For example, using the dynamic discounting tools delivered on the network, buyers can accelerate payments for approved invoices to key suppliers in return for discounts, earning an immediate return on their cash. Sellers can gain increased visibility into future cash flows, certainty in payment timing and the ability to use cash sooner.
- Chicago-based Mediafly is a trusted provider for the Fortune 1000, bridging the gap between compelling sales and marketing content and the wide range of mobile and smart devices. The company took advantage of the discounting tools with one of its customers and was paid in 14 days instead of 90.
- MarkMaster is a Tampa-based company that provides name badges, nameplates, rubber stamps, signs, banners and decals to Fortune 500 companies. It has grown revenue more than 300 percent using Ariba Discovery.
Road Map: Making the Impossible Possible – and Simple
With the planned infusion of analytics from SAP and SAP HANA support for the Ariba Network, SAP and Ariba intend to enable companies to harness the power of the more than 15 years of transactional, relationship and member-contributed content on the Ariba Network to make more informed buying, sales and financial decisions. Companies, for instance, are intended to be able to access market data, supplier information, transaction history and contract terms in real time and analyze this information through a single, beautiful interface from anywhere, at any time, using any device.
"The connectivity of the Internet is fueling a new kind of hyper-connected company that is connecting with its employees, customers, partners and suppliers and leveraging those connections as a community to solve important business problems," said Michael Fauscette, group vice president, Software Business Solutions, IDC. "By blending social, mobile and collaborative business applications, providers like SAP are fast moving into this new territory to drive the next level of productivity and customer innovation."

Excellent 4.5 /5 from 74 reviews
Very helpful staff and wonderful mountain views.
We stayed at this hotel to go skiing in pila. It was a very clean room and very nice size. The staff were kind and helpful. The parking was just right across the street. The breakfast was a typical italian hotel breakfast with brioche, yogurt, cereal, and fruit. Overall a very nice and pleasant stay!
The hotel manager was the absolute nicest gentleman we have encountered on our vacation. He was helpful in directing us to nice hikes and food and he gave us tickets to enter the local castle for free in which we received an excellent tour in English. This hotel is about a 7-10 min drive from Aosta. The town is very small and quiet yet convenient to surrounding towns by car.
very clean and staff is kind. we arrived late and they kept the light on for us. breakfast was served in a cozy area of the hotel, all the right snacks to prepare us for a day at mont blanc. please keep in mind, if you're planning to visit chamonix, the 23 mile tunnel to france has a 52 euro round trip toll.
Stayed there last week for four nights with my son who was snowboarding in the area. Everything was good ... breakfast area was small & cramped could have done with tea/coffee making facilities for evening beverages. Manager/owner Danny was amazing, so helpful Generally speaking we were pleased
