Abstract
The present invention provides a method of forming a plurality of barrier ribs each having an elongate configuration in plan and extending in the same direction within a display area for fabrication of a display panel. The method comprises the steps of forming a mask for cutting, having a masking pattern corresponding to the plurality of barrier ribs on a rib material layer, and removing portions of the rib material layer by jetting a cutting medium thereto, wherein the masking pattern is configured such that a plurality of elongate portions corresponding to the respective barrier ribs each extend across the display area to the outside of the display area and a spacing between adjacent end portions of elongate portions is smaller than a spacing between adjacent elongate portions within the display area.
