20100105157 | PROCESS OF MICRO-DISPLAY - A process of a micro-display is provided. First, a substrate having a pixel region and a periphery circuit region is provided, in which a metal reflection layer is formed in the pixel region, and a periphery circuit is formed in the periphery circuit region. Next, a dielectric layer is formed on the substrate to cover the pixel region and the periphery circuit region. Then, a patterned mask layer exposing the dielectric layer on the metal reflection layer is formed on the dielectric layer. Thereafter, a portion of the exposed dielectric layer is removed by using the patterned mask layer as a mask. Next, the patterned mask layer is removed. And then, a portion of the dielectric layer is removed to expose the metal reflection layer. | 04-29-2010 |
