A method of joining two panels during the manufacturing of a LCD display employing
the ODF (One Drop Fill) assembly technique. Using this method, the liquid crystal
is deposited on one of the substrate's interior to the glue seal. The glue seal
is pre-deposited near the peripheral edge of the substrates. The two substrates
are then brought in contact with one another. The glue seal must be cured rapidly
in order to seal the entire periphery while avoiding contamination between the
glue seal, in the liquid state and the liquid crystal. The present invention teaches
the use of a non-epoxy glue sealant, which is cured using photoinitiators. Experimental
research has discovered the use of photons that are derived from laser beams and
the control thereof. This allows for a faster, lower temperature cure.
