Abstract: An object of the present disclosure is to improve display reliability and lifetime as well as vivid colors. When there remain residues in the washing part due to incomplete removal during the developing step, it can cause dark spots or pixel off due to the residues, and thus residue-free pixels can be formed by optimizing the temperature and time for developing.
