  • Patent number: 8724057
    Abstract: A color filter array on pixel array substrate including a substrate, an active device array, a color filter array and a pixel electrode layer is provided. The substrate has a plurality of pixel regions and a light-shielding region. The active device array is disposed on the substrate. The color filter array is disposed on the substrate, and includes a light shielding patterned layer and a plurality of color filter patterns, wherein the light-shielding patterned layer is disposed in the light-shielding region. The color filter patterns are respectively disposed in the pixel regions and extend from the pixel regions into the light shielding regions, wherein the color filter patterns extending from adjacent pixel regions constitute a stacked structure within the light shielding regions. The pixel electrode layer is electrically connected to the active device array.

  • Patent number: 8330925
    Abstract: A display panel includes a first substrate, a pixel array, a peripheral circuit, a first protection layer, a second protection layer, a display medium, and a second substrate. The first substrate array has a display area and a peripheral area, wherein the pixel array is disposed in the display area, the peripheral circuit is disposed in the peripheral area, and the pixel array and the peripheral circuit are electrically connected. The first protection layer is disposed on the display area and the peripheral area to cover the pixel array and the peripheral circuit. The second protection layer is at least disposed on the first protection layer within the peripheral area. Here, the second protection layer includes a color filter material layer, a black matrix material layer, a photo spacer material layer, or a combination thereof. The second substrate is disposed above the first substrate to expose the peripheral area.

  • Patent number: 8089600
    Abstract: An active device array substrate including a substrate, an active device array, a black matrix, a color filter, at least a pad, and at least a contact window is provided. The substrate has a display region and a periphery circuit region. The pad is disposed in the display region or the periphery circuit region and is constituted by at least one of a first conductive layer and a second conductive layer. The contact window is disposed on the pad, through which a third conductive layer is connected to the pad. The contact window is surrounded by at least two different types of light-shielding patterns, wherein each light-shielding pattern surrounds only a part of the periphery of the contact window. The light-shielding patterns are selected form at least two of the black matrix, the color filter, the first conductive layer, and the second conductive layer.
