Patent ID: 8441711

Claim:
A method of fabricating an electrophoretic display device, comprising: forming a gate electrode and a gate line on a substrate having a display region, a non-display region at a periphery of the display region and a cut portion at an outer region of the non-display region; forming a gate insulating layer on an entire surface of the substrate including the gate electrode and the gate line; forming a data line and a thin film transistor having a semiconductor layer, a source electrode and a drain electrode on the substrate; wherein, the gate and data lines cross each other to define pixel regions, the thin film transistor connected to the gate and data lines; forming a passivation layer over the thin film transistor; forming a pixel electrode in each pixel region on the passivation layer and connected, via a contact hole, to the drain electrode of the thin film transistor; forming an align mark of an opaque metallic material in the cut portion; attaching an electrophoresis film including an adhesive layer, an ink layer having a charged particle, a common electrode and a base film onto the pixel electrode, the ink layer disposed between the adhesive layer and the base film, the adhesive layer being on the pixel electrode, the charged particle including a negatively-charged sub-particle having a white color and a positively-charged sub-particle having a black color; forming a color filter layer on the base film using the align mark for aligning the color filter layer with the pixel regions, the color filter layer corresponding to the display region; and forming a passivation sheet on the color filter layer and corresponding to the display region, wherein the step of forming the align mark is simultaneously performed with the step of forming the pixel electrode.
