And more perfect picture quality, which has been widely used in recent years. The conventional MVA liquid crystal display panel comprises a thin film transistor (TFT) substrate, a color filter (CF) substrate, a liquid crystal layer and a frame glue, and the thin film transistor substrate is transmitted through the plastic frame. A liquid crystal layer is interposed between the color filter substrate and the color filter substrate. The color filter substrate includes at least an electrode, a plurality of color filters, a plurality of black matrices (BM), a plurality of photo spacers, and a plurality of protrusions. A photo spacer is used to open the thin film transistor substrate and the color filter substrate and adjust the cell gap. In addition, the bumps are used to adjust the liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer to different orientations to achieve a wide viewing angle. In the process of manufacturing a color filter substrate, if the photo spacer or bump is found to be defective or does not meet the standard, the rework process of the color filter substrate must be performed to remove everything on the glass substrate, including color filter. Light sheets, electrodes, photo spacers, and bumps. The rework process of the color filter substrate will be described below. Please refer to FIGS. 1A to 1C for a cross-sectional view showing the flow of a conventional color filter substrate at 5.1283025.

The present invention provides a detailed description of the color filter substrate. The method uses a dry etching step, which is different from the conventional wet etching step, and can directly remove the photo spacers to be reworked on the electrodes without removing the color ferrite and the electrodes. (_. spacer, PS) and the bump to be reworked or one of them avoids the removal of the black matrix, color filter, electrode, photo spacer to be reworked, and the substrate on the substrate by using a stripper and a wet etching step. Reworked bumps greatly save the material cost and process time required for heavy work. Referring to Figure 2, there is shown a flow chart of a method of reworking a color light-passing substrate in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. In Fig. 2, first, in step 21, a color filter substrate is placed in a dry chamber (heart chamber). Wherein, the color filter substrate has at least one electrode, a photo spacer and a to-be-reworked bump, and the reworked photo spacer and the rework bump are formed on the electrode. . Next, proceeding to step ’, a gas is injected into the reaction chamber, and a dry step is performed to remove the reworked photo spacer and the bump to be reworked on the electrode. In this embodiment, the etching gas contained in the dry etching reaction chamber contains the gas (He), oxygen (〇2), nitrogen (N2), hydrogen (Η), and hexafluoride (sulphur). One or any combination of SF6), chlorine (C!2) and argon (Ar), dry 8.1283025 #=The pressure in the reaction chamber is 35G~Measure millitor (Lin small and dry residual reaction chamber = pressure Preferably, the surface of the dry etching chamber is operated under the operating conditions of 0 to 6 watts (kw) of the dry etching reaction chamber. The dry (four) step is performed under the operating conditions of the temperature of the light substrate of 3 〇 to 9 〇 c. The dry (four) step is one of a plasma etching step, a splash etching step, and a reactive ion etching step. The plasma etching step is taken as an example. Referring to FIG. 3, a schematic diagram of a plasma etching machine capable of removing a photo spacer to be reworked and a bump to be reworked according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown. • 3rd (4), the plasma money machine 纟29 includes a dry residual reaction 胄%, two parallel electrodes 13 and 32, one The RF power supply 33 is coupled to the electrode 31 and grounded, and the electrode 32 is capable of carrying and heating the color filter substrate 32 and grounded. The color filter substrate 35 includes a substrate 35 & a black matrix 35b, a color filter 35c, an electrode 35d, a to-be-reworked photo spacer 35e, and a to-be-reworked bump 35f or one of them. The black matrix 3 is formed on the substrate 35a, and the color filter is filtered. The sheet 35c is formed on the substrate 35a and covers the black matrix 35b. Further, the color light-emitting sheet 35c includes, for example, color filters such as red (r), Φ green (G), and color (B). The electrode 35d is formed on the color light-receiving sheet 35c, and the to-be-reworked photo spacer 35e and the to-be-reworked bump 35f are formed on the electrode 35d as shown in Fig. 4A. The scanning substrate (SEM) image of the structure before the photo spacer to be reworked is removed by the dry etching step of the present embodiment. Further, the substrate 35a is a glass substrate, and the electrode 35d may be Indium tin oxi De, ITO), the photo spacer 35e to be reworked and the bump 35f to be reworked are usually organic materials. When the color light-receiving substrate 35 is placed on the electrode 3 2 9 1283025 ' in the chamber 3 The RF power supply 33 can provide the RF power source of the dry etching reaction chamber 30 to 0 to 6 watts (kw), so that a voltage difference is generated between the electrodes 31 and 32. It can be accessed from above the dry etching reaction chamber 30. An etching gas containing one of xenon (tIe), oxygen (〇2), nitrogen (n2), hydrogen (h2), sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), gas (cl2), and argon (Ar), Distributed in the etching reaction chamber 3〇. The temperature of the color filter substrate 35 can be maintained at 3 〇 to 90 C by the heating mechanism of the electrode 32. In addition, the plasma etching machine 29 can control the dry etching reaction chamber 3〇 to a pressure of 350 to 1500 millitorr (mtorr), preferably 35 to 15 millitorres (mtorr). A pressure difference is generated between 31 and 32, and the electrode 31 will generate electrons to strike the etching gas of the dry etching reaction chamber 30, so that the etching gas hit by the electrons is freed into etching ions or etching radicals, collectively referred to as plasma 34. At this time, the plasma 34 will strike the color filter substrate 35 on the electrode 32 at a high speed. When the plasma "impeses the electrode 35d of the color filter substrate 35, the photo spacer 35e to be reworked, and the bump 35f to be reworked, the dry etching step has a better etching selectivity than the conventional wet etching step for the organic material and the material. Therefore, the plasma 34 will remove only the photo spacer 35e to be reworked and the bump 35f to be reworked, which are composed of an organic material, without removing the electromotive 35d composed of IT〇, as shown in Fig. 4B. Figure 4B is a SEM photograph showing the structure of the shirt filter substrate after the dry etching step of the embodiment is removed to remove the photo spacer. Thereafter, the vacuum is passed under the dry etching chamber 3〇. The etched product will be extracted out of the dry etch reaction chamber 30. Thus, the color filter substrate from which the photo spacer 35e to be reworked and the bump 35f to be reworked can be removed can be removed. In addition to the plasma etching machine 29, the photo spacers and the bumps are newly formed on the electrode 35d. Further, a cleaning step and a drying may be performed before the photo spacers and the bumps are re-formed on the electrodes 35d. Step to remove electrode 35d Remaining. • 1283025 ' However, those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains can also be understood. The technology of the present invention is not limited thereto, for example, only the photo spacer to be reworked or the bump to be reworked on the electrode. For the color filter substrate, the dry etching step may be used to remove the photo spacer to be reworked or the bump to be reworked on the electrode. For example, if the electrode of the color filter substrate is sprinkled with a spacer to be reworked The spacer to be reworked formed by the yellowing process is not only removed by cleaning, but for the bump to be reworked on the electrode, It can be removed by the dry etching step described above. If there is only a photo spacer to be reworked on the electrode, and there is no bump setting, such as multi d〇 main vert Kai alignment (MVA) liquid crystal display.
