Patent ID: 8440118

Claim:
A method for fabricating a liquid crystal display device comprising: forming a thin film transistor array substrate; forming a color filter substrate; bonding the thin film transistor array substrate and the color filter substrate; and applying a liquid crystal between the thin film transistor array substrate and the color filter substrate, wherein at least one of the forming the thin film transistor array substrate and the forming the color filter substrate includes a pattern forming method using a soft mold and fabricating a master mold, wherein the fabricating the master mold includes: stacking a material layer for forming a predetermined pattern on a main body, wherein the main body is a glass substrate, and wherein the main body is formed by stacking a metal layer on the glass substrate; patterning the material layer to form the predetermined pattern; and applying a hydrophobic group onto surfaces of the main body and the patterned material layer, wherein the hydrophobic group is fluoride, and wherein the applying the hydrophobic group onto the surfaces of the main body and the patterned material layer is performed by a plasma processing, wherein the plasma processing is performed using a gas containing a molecule having a fluorine element of CF 4 or SF 6 .
