Abstract: A defect inspection apparatus includes a first unit, a second unit, and a third unit which respectively irradiate first, second, and third inspection lights to the sample holder, a camera including a single image sensor which generates an image of a sample, which moves linearly on the sample holder, using time delay integration, and a detector which detects defects of the sample based on an image provided by the camera, where the first, second, and the third inspection lights are simultaneously irradiated to the sample holder, and where the single image sensor includes first, second, and third sections, the first section which generates an image of the sample taken by the first inspection light, the second section which generates an image of the sample taken by the second inspection light, and the third section which generates an image of the sample taken by the third inspection light.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a display device includes attaching a protective film onto a display panel that includes a display area and a pad area, where the protective film includes an adhesive layer and a protective layer disposed on the adhesive layer, half-cutting the protective film along a cutting line between the display area and the pad area such that a total thickness of the protective layer and a partial thickness of the adhesive layer are cut, irradiating a partially cut portion of the adhesive layer with a laser beam along at least a portion of the cutting line, and detaching a portion of the protective film that corresponds to the pad area along the cutting line.
