Abstract

A method of producing a color filter array on a transparent support, includes the steps of: forming a polymer image-receiving layer on the transparent support; baking the polymer image-receiving layer on the transparent support so as to harden the polymer image-receiving layer; and imagewise thermally transferring different colorants to form multicolored pixels in the polymer image-receiving layer. The method further includes fixing the colorant pixels into the polymer receiving layer to form the color filter array; and coating the such formed color filter array with an overcoat.
