Abstract: | Abstract— Column spacers were manufactured by a roll‐to‐roll process for a flexible plastic substrate and an LCD prototype was demonstrated for the first time. The purpose of this paper is to obtain a stable cell gap for plastic LCDs by designing the column spacers. The optimum condition was derived for the properties of the column spacers parameters, such as the cross section, density, and hardness. As a result, we could determine the optimum elastic modulus of the column spacers needed in order to precisely maintain the cell gap of the LCD as well as that of conventional glass plates, resulting in a uniform display luminance. |
