Patent ID: 7692192

Claim:
A display device comprising: a first substrate comprising a first insulating substrate and thin film transistors formed on the first insulating substrate; a second substrate facing the first substrate and comprising a second insulating substrate made of plastic and a black matrix formed on the second insulating substrate, the black matrix comprising a plurality of horizontal extending portions extending in a first direction and a plurality of vertical extending portions extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and disposed at an irregular interval; and a liquid crystal layer located between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the horizontal extending portions and the vertical extending portions define a plurality of apertures arranged in a matrix having aperture rows extending in the first direction and aperture columns extending in the second direction, wherein widths of the aperture columns respectively correspond to intervals between adjacent vertical extending portions, and wherein the intervals between adjacent vertical extending portions include a first vertical interval and a second vertical interval smaller than the first vertical interval.
