Abstract

Flexible display devices are widely and extensively studied for using the applications such as smart cards, PDA, head mounted displays and all kinds of mobile display because of their lighter weight, thinner packaging, and flexibility. However, it has some obstacles such as mechanical stability and tight adhesion of two plastic substrates. In this presentation, we will suggest a new bonding technologies with rigid spacers and bonding materials, which will serve mechanical stability and good adhesion strength. The micro-contact printing method is used to place bonding material on the rigid spacers that may be easily applicable to roll-to-roll fabrication processes. The performances of prototype samples fabricated will also be demonstrated by this technology.
