Patent number: 7858010Abstract: A pattern template includes a flexible substrate, a template mold formed on the flexible substrate to include a pattern, and an alignment mark, the alignment mark has a greater refractive index than that of the template mold. The template is manufactured by providing a master template including a pattern area, coating resin for mold in the pattern area, forming a template mold by installing a flexible plate on the resin for mold and curing the resin for mold by radiating UV rays, separating the template mold and the master template, coating a metal thin film on the template mold, and forming an alignment mark at both sides of the template mold.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2007Date of Patent: December 28, 2010Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Eun-hyoung Cho, Sung-hoon Choa, Jin-seung Sohn, Du-hyun Lee, Hae-sung Kim
