Abstract
A method of fabricating a display panel includes providing a first substrate and a second substrate, forming an alignment material layer on one of the first substrate and the second substrate and patterning the alignment material layer to form an individual central portion, forming a hydrophobic surface extending from an edge of the individual central portion toward an edge of the one of the first substrate and the second substrate, forming a sealant material on the one of the first substrate and the second substrate, dropping a display medium material on the individual central portion, assembling the first substrate and the second substrate with the sealant material and curing the sealant material to form a sealant. A gap separates the sealant material from the individual central portion and the hydrophobic surface extends in the gap. The display medium material is restricted by the hydrophobic surface and does not contact the sealant material.
