Description of the Related Art
Recently, a flexible display made of plastic and having light weight and anti-shock properties have been developed. The portability can be maximized by folding or rolling up the flexible display. Meanwhile, this flexible display can be used in many fields such as electronic billboards, window banners, exhibition bulletin boards, and so on.
A conventional flexible display comprises a display device formed on a flexible substrate, wherein various display device can be chosen, such as OLED, LCD or EPD. The displays mentioned above usually comprise thin film transistors, so lots of thin film processes are necessary to form thin film transistors on a flexible substrate to generate a flexible display device. However, the flexible substrate having a thickness of about tens nm is too thin to proceed various thin film processes. Currently, a new method of manufacturing a flexible display was provided, wherein a flexible substrate was formed on a glass substrate in advance, then a display device was formed on the flexible substrate adhered on the glass substrate, then the flexible substrate and the glass substrate was separated. The thermal expansion coefficients (CTE) of flexible substrate made of plastic materials and the glass substrate are different. The flexible substrate and the glass substrate can be easily separated or bending during high temperature process when the bonding force therebetween is weak and results in serious defects.
