本发明的实施方式
以下各实施例的说明是参考附加的图式,用以例示本申请可用以实施的特定实施例。本申请所提到的方向用语,例如「上」、「下」、「前」、「后」、「左」、「右」、「内」、「外」、「侧面」等,仅是参考附加图式的方向。因此,使用的方向用语是用以说明及理解本申请,而非用以限制本申请。
附图和说明被认为在本质上是示出性的,而不是限制性的。在图中,结构相似的单元是以相同标号表示。另外,为了理解和便于描述,附图中示出的每个组件的尺寸和厚度是任意示出的,但是本申请不限于此。
在附图中,为了清晰起见,夸大了层、膜、面板、区域等的厚度。在附图中,为了理解和便于描述,夸大了一些层和区域的厚度。将理解的是,当例如层、膜、区域或基底的组件被称作“在”另一组件“上”时,所述组件可以直接在所述另一组件上,或者也可以存在中间组件。
另外,在说明书中,除非明确地描述为相反的,否则词语“包括”将被理解为意指包括所述组件,但是不排除任何其它组件。此外,在说明书中,“在......上”意指位于目标组件上方或者下方,而不意指必须位于基于重力方向的顶部上。
为更进一步阐述本申请为达成预定发明目的所采取的技术手段及功效,以下结合附图及较佳实施例,对依据本申请提出的一种液晶显示装置及其边框设计其具体实施方式、结构、特征及其功效,详细说明如后。
请参阅图1a和图1b,图1a是本申请范例性的COT技术的屏幕工艺示意图,图1b是本申请范例性的COT技术的屏幕工艺真空泡产生处示意图,COT技术的屏幕工艺,其显示区与边缘区容易因为地形上的差异造成断差D,使得液晶扩散不良,导致成盒过程中出现边缘处产生真空泡100的问题。请参阅图2a~2b,图2a是本申请一实施例的液晶显示面板的平坦层示意图,图2b是本申请一实施例的液晶显示面板的边缘区及显示区示意图。本申请液晶显示面板,包括:一第一基板,一第二基板10,具有一显示区11及一边框区12,所述边框区12位于所述第二基板10边缘且环绕所述显示区11;一滤色器层20,位于所述第二基板10的所述显示区11上,所述滤色器层20具有一第一厚度D1;一平坦层30,位于所述第二基板10的所述边框区12上,且环绕于所述滤色器层20,所述平坦层30具有一第二厚度D2,所述第二厚度D2与所述第一厚度D1具有相同厚度,使所述平坦层30与所述滤色器层20平齐,所述平坦层30与所述滤色器层20连接形成一同一平面, 进一步地,一支撑柱40位于所述滤色器层20上,以及一第一基板50位于支撑柱40上,支撑柱40用以支撑第一基板50。

进一步地,本申请的有益效果在于通过滤色器层与所述平坦层均使用相同材料,因此可有效降地成本,提高成盒后良率。
进一步地,本申请更包括一种液晶显示装置,包括:第一基板50;一第二基板10,及一液晶层,位于所述第一基板50及第二基板10之间,请再参阅图2a~图2b,图2a是本申请一实施例的液晶显示面板的平坦层示意图,图2b是本申请一实施例的液晶显示面板的边缘区及显示区示意图。其中,所述第二基板具有滤色器层20、平坦层30、一显示区11及一边框区12,所述边框区12位于所述第二基板10边缘且环绕所述显示区11;一滤色器层20,是位于所述第二基板10的所述显示区11上,所述滤色器层20具有一第一厚度D1;一平坦层30,是位于所述第二基板10的所述边框区12上,且环绕于所述滤色器层20,所述平坦层30具有一第二厚度D2,所述第二厚度D2与所述第一厚度D1具有相同厚度使所述平坦层30与所述滤色器层20平齐,所述平坦层30与所 述滤色器层20连接形成一同一平面,进一步地,一支撑柱40位于所述滤色器层20上,以及一第一基板50位于支撑柱40上,支撑柱40用以支撑第一基板50,更进一步地,位于所述第一基板50与所述支撑柱40之间更包括黑色矩阵60。
