DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18418920 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
The method of manufacturing a display device involves preparing a foldable module with a window module, display panel, panel protective layer, and support plate.
- First cutting operation involves cutting the support plate with a laser beam.
- Reflected light from the panel protective layer is detected to change the laser beam to a second laser beam.
- Second cutting operation involves cutting the panel protective layer, display panel, and window module with the second laser beam.
Potential Applications: - Manufacturing of foldable display devices - Electronics industry for creating innovative display technologies
Problems Solved: - Efficient cutting of multiple layers in a display device - Ensuring precision and accuracy in manufacturing processes
Benefits: - Improved production efficiency - Enhanced quality control in display device manufacturing

Original Abstract Submitted
A method of manufacturing a display device includes preparing a preliminary foldable module including a window module, a display panel disposed on the window module, a panel protective layer disposed on the display panel, and a support plate disposed on the panel protective layer. Performing a first cutting operation including cutting the support plate with a first laser beam. Detecting, by a laser-sensing part, reflected light that is reflected from a surface of the panel protective layer exposed by cutting the support plate and changing the first laser beam to a second laser beam. Performing a second cutting operation of sequentially cutting the panel protective layer, the display panel, and the window module with the second laser beam.
