Abstract

A new printing process for LCD color filter is proposed in this work by using the localized laser heating, which is called laser-induced spray printing (LISP) process. The LISP is a non-contact process, which injects the ink from the donor substrate to the glass substrate by the bubble pressure induced by laser heating. The temperature distribution of the donor substrate is calculated numerically to explain the ink ejection phenomena. The composition of the ink was includes the red pigment, n-butanol, xylene, BCA and epoxy. Experiments were conducted by using the fiber laser system, and the color filter patterns were deposited successfully under the proper laser heating conditions.
