【先前技術】 目刖而&,液晶顯示裝置已被廣泛地應用於筆記型電 腩、數位相機、數位攝影機、個人行動助理及行動電話等 策置上。液晶顯不裝置已經逐漸取代冷陰極射線管(cRT) 顯不裝置,而成為平面顯示裝置中主要的顯示裝置之一。 其中,液晶顯示裝置主要係由一液晶顯示面板以及一背光 模組所組成。 請參閱圖1,係為習知技術之一液晶顯示面板i,具 有相對設置之一彩色濾光片基板n與一薄膜電晶體基板 12,以及設置於彩色濾光片基板u與薄膜電晶體基板12 間之/液晶層13。其中,彩色濾光片基板1]L具有一基板 本體I11、设置於基板本體111之一透明電極層112、複數 設置於透明電極層112上之圖案化間隔物113,以及設置 於該等圖案化間隔物113上之配向層114。其中,該等圖 案化間隔物I13通常為光阻材料’塗佈於基板上並經過曝 光、顯影及熱固化荨步驟後而形成特定圖案且完全固化之 間隔物於透明電極層U2上。如此一來,該等圖案化間隔 6 200830006 物113係具有一南度,以保持彩色濾光片基板η與薄膜電 晶體基板12間之間距(cell gap) ’使得彩色濾光片基板工工 與薄膜電晶體基板12間係形成一容置空間,以填充液晶 材料。 然而,為了確保液晶顯示面板1之光學特性,彩色淚 光片基板11與薄膜電晶體基板12間之間距需為均勻且保 持一定。因此,影響間距大小之圖案化間隔物〗13的高度 係扮演了相當重要的角色。當熱固化後的圖案化間隔物 113受力時,圖案化間隔物113係具有一定之彈性回復力。 於組裝彩色濾光片基板11與薄膜電晶體基板12後,兩者 間之距離可能因為圖案化間隔物113之彈性回復力不如預 期而改變,如此一來,則易造成產品良率下降。雖然,圖 案化間隔物113之彈性回復力可能可以藉由對於圖案化間 隔物113之高度進行高精度控制來調整,但如此一來,則 無法容許較大之製程誤差,易造成產品良率下降。 當該等圖案化間隔物113之高度的精度控制不良,圖 案化間隔物113高度太高或彈性回復力過大時,會使得彩 色濾光片基板11與薄膜電晶體基板12之間隔過大,而造 ^ 成液晶材料充填後液晶層13中產生氣泡(bubble)。反之, _ 當該等圖案化間隔物113之高度過小或彈性回復力過小的 J見象產生時,則會使得彩色濾光片基板U與薄膜電晶體 基板12之間隔過小,而造成間隔内的液晶材料充填過多 而產生重力缺陷(gravity mura),亦即過多之液晶下沉且累 積於面板底部的現象。 200830006 另外,當組裝後之液晶顯示面板i進行一按壓測試 時,倘若該等圖案化間隔物113之支撐強度不夠,外力按 壓時則容易使得該等圖案化間隔物113產生位移,進而導 致液晶顯不面板1產生漏光之現象。 爰因於此,如何提供一種液晶顯示面板及其基板之製 作方法、以及液晶顯示裝置、液晶顯示面板及其基板,具 有較寬鬆的圖案化間隔物之高度精度範圍及製程容許誤 差範圍,以及可改善因圖案化間隔物之彈性回復力過大或 過小,或是圖案化間隔物之支撐強度不足所造成液晶顯示 面板之缺陷,確實為當前主要課題。 【發明内容】 有鑑於上述課題,本發明之目的為提供一種液晶顯示 面板及其基板之製作方法、以及液晶顯示裝置、液晶顯示 面板及其基板,其圖案化間隔物之精度可具有較大的範 圍,而且可改善因圖案化間隔物之彈性回復力過大或過 小,或是圖案化間隔物之支撐強度不足所造成液晶顯示面 板之缺陷。 緣是,為達上述目的,依本發明之液晶顯示面板之基 板製作方法,包含下列步驟:形成一配向層於一基板本體 之上;形成一間隔物層於配向層上;以及圖案化間隔物層 以形成複數個部分固化之間隔物。 為達上述目的,依本發明之液晶顯示面板之製作方 法,包含下列步驟:形成一配向層於一基板本體之上;形 8 200830006 成一間隔物層於配向層上;圖案化並部分固化間隔物層而 形成複數個部分固化之間隔物以形成—第一基板;形成— 液晶層於第一基板上;將一第二基板與第一基板相對級 裝’弟一基板係設置於液晶層上且與部分固化之間隔物接 觸;以及再固化該等部分固化之間隔物使其最終實質上完 全固化以形成複數圖案化間隔物。 為達上述目的,依本發明之液晶顯示面板之基板,包 含一基板本體、一配向層及複數個圖案化間隔物。其中,[Prior Art] The liquid crystal display device has been widely used in notebook computers, digital cameras, digital cameras, personal mobile assistants, and mobile phones. The liquid crystal display device has gradually replaced the cold cathode ray tube (cRT) display device and has become one of the main display devices in the flat display device. The liquid crystal display device mainly comprises a liquid crystal display panel and a backlight module. Referring to FIG. 1 , a liquid crystal display panel i of the prior art has a color filter substrate n and a thin film transistor substrate 12 disposed opposite to each other, and a color filter substrate u and a thin film transistor substrate. 12 between / liquid crystal layer 13. The color filter substrate 1]L has a substrate body 11 , a transparent electrode layer 112 disposed on the substrate body 111 , a patterned spacer 113 disposed on the transparent electrode layer 112 , and patterned thereon. Alignment layer 114 on spacer 113. Wherein, the patterned spacers I13 are generally photoresist spacers coated on the substrate and subjected to exposure, development and heat curing steps to form a specific pattern and completely cured spacers on the transparent electrode layer U2. In this way, the patterning interval 6 200830006 113 has a south degree to maintain the cell gap between the color filter substrate η and the thin film transistor substrate 12, so that the color filter substrate is An accommodating space is formed between the thin film transistor substrates 12 to fill the liquid crystal material. However, in order to secure the optical characteristics of the liquid crystal display panel 1, the distance between the color tear film substrate 11 and the thin film transistor substrate 12 needs to be uniform and constant. Therefore, the height of the patterned spacer 13 affecting the pitch size plays a very important role. When the thermally patterned patterned spacers 113 are stressed, the patterned spacers 113 have a certain elastic restoring force. After the color filter substrate 11 and the thin film transistor substrate 12 are assembled, the distance between the two may be changed because the elastic restoring force of the patterned spacer 113 is not as expected, which tends to cause a decrease in product yield. Although the elastic restoring force of the patterned spacer 113 may be adjusted by high-precision control of the height of the patterned spacer 113, in this case, a large process error cannot be tolerated, which may cause a decrease in product yield. . When the precision of the height of the patterned spacers 113 is poorly controlled, and the height of the patterned spacers 113 is too high or the elastic restoring force is too large, the interval between the color filter substrate 11 and the thin film transistor substrate 12 is too large. ^ A bubble is formed in the liquid crystal layer 13 after the liquid crystal material is filled. On the other hand, when the height of the patterned spacers 113 is too small or the elastic recovery force is too small, the gap between the color filter substrate U and the thin film transistor substrate 12 is too small, resulting in an interval. The liquid crystal material is excessively filled to generate a gravity mura, that is, a phenomenon in which too much liquid crystal sinks and accumulates at the bottom of the panel. 200830006 In addition, when the assembled liquid crystal display panel i performs a press test, if the supporting strength of the patterned spacers 113 is insufficient, the externally pressed force tends to cause displacement of the patterned spacers 113, thereby causing liquid crystal display. No leakage occurs on panel 1. Therefore, how to provide a liquid crystal display panel and a substrate manufacturing method thereof, and a liquid crystal display device, a liquid crystal display panel and a substrate thereof, have a high precision range of a patterning spacer and a tolerance range of a process, and It is indeed a major problem to improve the defects of the liquid crystal display panel caused by the excessive or little elastic restoring force of the patterned spacer or the insufficient supporting strength of the patterned spacer. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal display panel and a method of fabricating the same, and a liquid crystal display device, a liquid crystal display panel, and a substrate thereof, wherein the precision of the patterned spacer can be large. The range is also improved by the fact that the elastic restoring force of the patterned spacer is too large or too small, or the supporting strength of the patterned spacer is insufficient to cause defects of the liquid crystal display panel. In order to achieve the above object, a substrate manufacturing method of a liquid crystal display panel according to the present invention comprises the steps of: forming an alignment layer on a substrate body; forming a spacer layer on the alignment layer; and patterning the spacer The layers are formed to form a plurality of partially cured spacers. In order to achieve the above object, a method for fabricating a liquid crystal display panel according to the present invention comprises the steps of: forming an alignment layer on a substrate body; forming 8 200830006 into a spacer layer on the alignment layer; patterning and partially curing the spacer Forming a plurality of partially cured spacers to form a first substrate; forming a liquid crystal layer on the first substrate; and mounting a second substrate on the liquid crystal layer opposite to the first substrate Contacting the partially cured spacer; and re-curing the partially cured spacers to ultimately substantially completely cure to form a plurality of patterned spacers. To achieve the above object, a substrate for a liquid crystal display panel according to the present invention comprises a substrate body, an alignment layer and a plurality of patterned spacers. among them,

Compared with the prior art, in the process of assembling the first substrate and the substrate, the 'partially cured spacer is soft and the deformation space is large', and the spacing between the two substrates of the liquid crystal display panel can be easily controlled after assembly. Complete curing is only possible. Therefore, the height of the partially cured spacers does not require high-precision control, so the production yield of the liquid crystal display panel can be improved. In addition, the 'partially cured spacers may have a larger surface area after being squeezed to increase the contact area of the patterned spacers with the substrate, or a stepped structure of the enlarged portion and the second substrate, such as a convex portion or a concave portion. The mating of each other allows the patterned spacer to have better friction and support strength. Therefore, compared with the conventional structure, the patterned spacer in the liquid crystal display panel is less likely to be displaced by being pressed, so that the light leakage of the liquid crystal display panel can be avoided.

The second substrate 50 is disposed on the liquid crystal layer 30 and is in contact with the partially cured spacers 25. In the embodiment, the second substrate 50 is exemplified by a thin film transistor substrate. When the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 50 are assembled, the sealant layer 40 is located between the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 50, and the second substrate 50 is slightly pressed to the partially cured spacers 25, so that The partially cured spacers 25 are somewhat open." 12 200830006 Thus, the partially cured spacers 25 each have a second height H2 that is less than the first height H1. In addition, the partially cured spacers 25 may have a bulky portion 251 adjacent one end of the second substrate 50 due to compression. The enlarged portion 251 can cover or fit at least a portion of the stepped structure of the second substrate 50. The stepped structure can be a protrusion or a concave portion, such as a film of a thin film transistor 52 or a contact area. The frictional force between the second substrate 50 and the second substrate 50 is increased, so that after the re-solidification, the partially cured spacers 25 are not easily displaced by the pressing, and are easily tested by the liquid crystal display panel 2. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the spacer layer 24 is formed on the alignment layer 21 of the first substrate 20 (color filter substrate) such that the first substrate 20 has the partially cured spacers 25 . Then, the assembly of the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 50 is performed. Of course, the partially cured spacers 25 may be formed on one of the alignment layers 51 of the second substrate 50 (thin film transistor substrate), and then the subsequent assembly of the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 50 may be performed. • Referring again to FIG. 7, in step S7, the partially cured spacers 25 are cured to substantially completely cure to form a plurality of patterned spacers '25', such that the patterned spacers 25' are finally The curing rate reached 95% to 4 to form the liquid crystal display panel 2. In this embodiment, the partially cured spacers 25 may be cured by ultraviolet curing or heat curing. After curing, the patterned spacers 25' become hard and cannot be changed in height. Through the above steps, the method of manufacturing the liquid crystal panel 2 of the present invention 13 200830006 is to provide the partially cured spacers 25 on the alignment layer 21 when the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 5 are assembled. The partially cured spacers 25 are soft and have no elastic restoring force, so that the distance between the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 50 can be easily adjusted. In actual production, the height of the partially cured spacers 25 may be made relatively high. Since the partially cured spacers 25 are only partially cured, the softness can be easily adjusted to the height 'so that during assembly, The partially cured spacers 25 are flattened to a predetermined height' so that the initial extent of the partially cured spacers 25 does not require high precision control. Compared with the conventional technology, the partially cured spacers 25 do not change the distance between the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 5 due to the excessive or too small elastic restoring force, which is indeed helpful for the liquid crystal display of the south. The quality of the panel 2 production. In addition, each of the partially cured spacers 25 may have an enlarged portion 251 adjacent to one end of the second substrate 50, so that the patterned spacers 25 have a large frictional force with the second substrate 5, compared with In the conventional structure, the patterned spacer 25 is less susceptible to being pressed and displaced when used in the liquid crystal display panel 2, and the liquid crystal display panel 2 can be prevented from leaking. Next, referring to Fig. 2 to Fig. 5, a method of fabricating the substrate 20 of the liquid crystal display panel 2 of the second embodiment of the present invention will be described.

In the embodiment, the patterned spacers 25' are photosensitive spacers or light. Spacer. The alignment layer 21 is disposed on the substrate body 22, and the plurality of patterned spacers 25' are respectively disposed on the alignment layer 21. In addition, the first substrate 20 may have a transparent electrode layer 23 disposed on the substrate body 22 and the alignment layer 21. As shown in FIG. 8, the liquid crystal layer 30 is disposed on the first substrate 20. Further, the liquid crystal display panel 2 further has a sealant layer 40 disposed between the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 50, and the sealant layer 40 is disposed around the periphery of the liquid crystal layer 30. As shown in Fig. 8, the second substrate 50 is disposed on the liquid crystal layer 30 and is in contact with the patterned spacers 25. In this embodiment, each of the patterned spacers 25' adjacent to the second substrate 5 can have an enlarged portion 251', and the enlarged portion 251 can cover or fit at least a portion of the second substrate 50. The structure, the step structure may be a protrusion or a recess, 15 200830006 such as a convex-film transistor 52 plus a frictional force between the second substrate 50.疋 Increase the contact area by the above structure, in the production of liquid crystal display = 1 spacer 25 ' can have a larger range of precision, easy to break away from the defects 'and improve the liquid crystal display device system (2) = parts The patterned spacer 25 has a preferable degree, so that the liquid crystal display of the liquid crystal display device 7 causes a light leakage phenomenon. It is not easy to see the droughts and floods. Please refer to the ® 7' & In the present embodiment, the liquid crystal display panel 2 has a first substrate 2, a liquid layer 30, and a first substrate 50.
