Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to an apparatus for repairing a bright spot failure of a display device, and more particularly to an apparatus for repairing a bright spot failure of a display device, It is capable of emitting a laser beam at a uniform energy density throughout the area of the laser beam radiation. 〇 [Prior Art] Recently, liquid crystal display devices have become the focus of next-generation and evolutionary display devices, which have low power consumption, excellent portability, technical precision, and high added value. Among the liquid crystal display devices, an active matrix type liquid crystal display device (including a switching element capable of switching a voltage applied to each pixel) has the best attraction because of the resolution and the ability to perform a moving image. 〇Reference 1 ® - The known liquid crystal panel 500 has a structure in which a color filter substrate (ie, a front substrate) and a thin film transistor (TFT) array substrate (ie, a 'back substrate') are joined together. A liquid crystal layer 52 having a dielectric anisotropy characteristic is formed between the color filter substrate and the TFT array substrate 51A. The liquid crystal panel 5 is driven to operate by a tft to transmit to hundreds of thousands of pixels through the address lines for selecting pixels and the corresponding pixels applied to the corresponding pixels. Here, the color filter substrate includes a glass 53 1 , a color filter (for example, RGB ) 532 , and a black matrix 533 , each of which is formed between the color pickers 532 , and the cladding layers 534 and 201040641 are used for one common electrode. The ITO layer 535 and the directed layer 536. A polarizing plate 537 is attached to an upper surface of the glass 531. At the same time, a liquid crystal panel comprising a cladding layer or a black matrix and a color filter array (c〇A) structure have been disclosed. In order to manufacture a liquid crystal panel, a TFT array substrate process, a color filter substrate process, a liquid crystal lattice process, and the like can be performed. In the TFT array substrate processing, a deposition process, a photo-etching process, and an etching process are repeatedly performed to form gate lines, data lines, TFTs, and pixel electrodes on a glass substrate. In the color filter substrate processing, RGB color filters are arranged in a specific order on a glass substrate having a black matrix and configured to perform processed colors. Next, a ϊτ〇 layer is formed for the general electrode or the like. In the liquid crystal lattice processing, the TFT array substrate and the color filter are joined together to have a gap therebetween. A liquid crystal layer is formed by injecting a liquid crystal into the 0 gap. Further, recently, a liquid crystal dropping process (Drop Filing' ODF) process is applied which uniformly applies liquid crystal on a TFT array substrate and bonds the TFT array substrate and the color filter substrate together. In the process of testing the liquid crystal display device, a test pattern is formed on a screen of the liquid crystal panel, and whether or not there is a defective pixel is detected. If the result of the test detects a bad pixel, the task of repairing a bad pixel is performed. In the LCD panel, the 瑕疵 can include a little 瑕疵, a line of fatigue, and the display is not normal. The dot is caused by defects in a TFT element, a pixel electrode, and a color filter line. The wire is caused by a line of damage, short circuit, damage to the TFTs due to static electricity, and failure to connect to a drive circuit 201040641. The display may be abnormal due to abnormal lattice thickness, abnormal liquid crystal direction, distribution of TFT characteristic positions, and a relatively high time constant line. In general, the reason for the point and the line is the glimpse of the line. In the prior art, when a damaged wire is found, the damaged portion is connected. When the line is short-circuited, the corresponding line is cut. In addition to the above ruthenium, ruthenium impurities including dust, organic matter, or metals are absorbed in the process of manufacturing a liquid crystal panel. If the impurities are absorbed by the adjacent color filters, a so-called light leakage phenomenon occurs in which a corresponding pixel emits light having a higher luminance than a normal pixel when the panel is driven. In order to repair the bright spot failure, research into a method using a laser has been made. More specifically, a color filter having a bright spot failure is blackened by radiation-emitting to a color filter. The blackened pixels are formed to have low light transparency, and are marked as 里% color' so that light generated by the light source unit (a backlight unit) of the display device is not transmitted but absorbs light, thereby repairing a bright spot failure. Therefore, the irradiated laser must have a wavelength of low transparency (i.e., a wavelength having a high absorption factor) to black out a corresponding pixel. This wavelength is selected with reference to the transparency of each wavelength of the color filter shown in Fig. 2. Referring to FIG. 3, a conventional display device includes a laser unit 110 and a scanner 130 for scanning a laser beam generated by a laser unit η 放射 and radiating to a panel ρ color filter. A monitoring unit 14〇6 201040641 and an illuminator 141' are used to instantly check the color filter (or panel), and the autofocus control member 150 and the focusing lens 160 for controlling a focus of the laser beam. A plurality of mirrors M1 and M2 for controlling the path of the light are further disposed in the display device. Referring to Figure 4, a scanner is a known component. The scanner includes an X current mirror 132 and a Y current mirror 13ι for changing one

Fig. 5 is a view showing a procedure for repairing a color filter having a bright spot failure using a conventional repairing apparatus constructed as described above. As shown in Fig. 5, the scanner radiates a laser beam in a zigzag pattern, thereby coating Black has the entire area of a color filter that may have a bright spot failure. Here, the laser beam is scanned at a starting position (an acceleration section) or a turning position (an acceleration section or a deceleration section) at a lower speed than the average speed. Therefore, there is a problem that the starting position or the turning position has a higher laser energy density than the other segments. Alternatively, the laser beams overlap each other at a turning position. If the start position or the turn f position has a higher laser energy density than the other segments as described above, the layer placed under the color filter is broken, and the liquid crystal flowing to the color filter layer 'causes - severe failure. The acceleration section or deceleration section becomes the edge L1 on both sides of the color filter (1). At the same time, Figure 6 shows the general-purpose laser beam amp &_ profile. The laser beam is first #radiated by the laser unit, the projecting unit has a Gaussian-arc-shaped segment and has an "energy-concentrated central region." Therefore, there are different energy densities that are radiated to the positions of the respective colorants 7 201040641 A problem with a laser beam.

[Embodiment] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail herein with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments are intended to describe the present invention more specifically. Therefore, the shapes and the like of the various constituent elements in the drawings may be exaggerated to more clearly emphasize the explanation. Referring to FIG. 7 'a first according to the present invention An apparatus 200 for repairing a bright spot fault of an embodiment includes a laser unit 210, a plant 9 201040641 beam intensity control unit 220 'for controlling The intensity of a laser beam emitted by the laser unit 220, the beam shape control member 270, and a scanner 230' for scanning a laser beam, a beam processing surface in a radiation segment of a color filter of a panel p A control member 280, a monitoring unit 240 and an illuminator 241 for instantly checking the color filter (or panel), and the autofocus control member 250 and a focusing lens 26 for controlling a focus of the laser beam . A plurality of mirrors Ο M1 and M2 for controlling the path of the light are further arranged in the apparatus. Scanner 230 is a known component. The scanner includes an X current mirror and a Y current mirror 'for changing the direction of a laser beam and a scanning lens to focus a laser beam having a direction changed by the mirror. In particular, the beam processing surface control member 28 filters the scanned laser beam so that it does not radiate to a color filter in an acceleration segment or a deceleration segment. The scanned laser beam is filtered so that it is not used in the acceleration or deceleration segments because of the different laser energy densities between the acceleration or deceleration segments and other segments. Therefore, the entire radiation area of the color filter can be processed at a uniform energy density. Fig. 8 is a view showing a state in which the surface control member 28 is processed using a light beam. Referring to Fig. 8, the laser beam is prevented from colliding with the acceleration section or the deceleration section by the beam processing surface control member 28, and is not radiated to a color filter 532, but only passes through other sections (an average speed section). The beam of light is emitted to the color filter 532. Therefore, the entire area of the color filter 201040641 can be processed at a uniform energy density. Figure 9 shows an example of a beam processing surface control member 28A. The beam processing surface control member 28 includes a beam slit S having a pair of x-axis blades Sb and a pair of Y-axis blades Sa. The sizes of the transport units 〇1 and 〇2 can be controlled by operating the blades and sb (refer to Figs. 9 and (b)). In order to control the sizes of the transfer units 〇1 and 〇2, the beam processing surface control member 280 includes a drive motor 用于 for driving the x-axis blade Sb and a drive motor β for driving the Y-axis blade Sa, so the 'laser beam is Blocking the acceleration or deceleration section and not radiating to the color filter, but only the laser beam passing through the other sections (average speed section) is radiated to the color filter. Figure 10 shows another embodiment of the beam processing surface control member 280. The beam processing surface control member 280 includes a mask 具有 having a transfer unit 0 formed therein. A plurality of transfer units 具有 having different sizes and shapes can be formed in the mask Μ. Fig. 11 is a cross-sectional view showing a laser beam 放射 emitted in the present embodiment. The laser beam Β is first radiated by a laser unit 21 having an arcuate section of a Gaussian form and having its energy concentrated in a central region, however, when passing through the beam shape control member 27, This - the laser beam forms a triangle or square. In other words, beam shape control member 270 transmits only a peak region Β2 (i.e., a relatively high energy region at the center of the first arcuate beam of rays), but blocks edge Β3 (i.e., a relatively low energy region). To this end, only the center Β 2 (i.e., peak region Β 2 ) has a relatively uniform energy distribution that can be used, which is a laser beam having a high energy distribution of the form 201004. Figure 12 is a diagram showing an apparatus 300 for repairing a bright spot failure in accordance with a second embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 12, the apparatus 300 according to the second embodiment has the same structure as the apparatus 200 according to the first embodiment except that it further includes a laser former 391 and a driving member 392. Therefore, a description of the redundant constituent elements is omitted. The beam shaper 391 acts to expand an area having a uniform energy density to expand a region where a laser beam can be processed and to flatten the shape of the laser beam. Further, the driving member 392 acts to simultaneously rotate either or both of the pair of y-axis blades Sb or the pair of γ-axis blades Sa (composed of the beam processing surface control members). Since the blade is rotated as described above, the transport unit (refer to h and 〇 2 in Fig. 9) can be formed in various forms. This is to control the form of the transfer unit in accordance with the shape of the color filter. For example, in an embodiment of the invention, as shown in Fig. 13, the laser beam B can be enlarged in the form of a slit, and an area of the laser beam that can be processed can be expanded to repair the panel p. In the above-described embodiment of the present invention, the movement of the laser beam B onto the panel p and repairing a bright spot failure in the panel will be described. However, as shown in Fig. 14, the panel P and the laser beam B can be moved in opposite directions to repair the panel. In this case, the time taken to repair the panel can be reduced. Meanwhile, although not shown in the drawings, a control unit (not shown) may be further included in the embodiment. The control unit may be disposed between the laser unit 12 201040641 210 and the scanner 23A, or the scanner and The beam is processed between the surface control members 280. Only when the polarizer is mounted in the liquid crystal panel, the control unit changes a polarization state of the laser beam, thereby improving the uniformity of the laser beam. An energy density of a laser beam according to an embodiment of the present invention may be a uniform benefit over the entire area of the laser beam radiation. Therefore, damage to the layer below the color filter can be avoided. Furthermore, it is a benefit that a laser beam has a relatively uniform energy system that can be used, since only the center 0 of a laser beam having a Gaussian distribution is used, after the example embodiment has been shown and the invention has been described, A person skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the following claims.
