Abstract

Disclosed herein is a method of fabricating an electrophoretic display device for reducing the fabrication cost and simplifying the fabrication process, and the method may include providing a substrate comprising a display region arranged with a plurality of pixels and a non-display region; forming a thin-film transistor on a first substrate; forming a passivation layer on the substrate formed with the thin-film transistor; forming a pixel electrode in the display region on the passivation layer and forming a partition wall in the non-display region; filling an electrophoretic material in a pixel inside the partition wall on the passivation layer; applying a sealing material to an upper portion of the electrophoretic material to form a sealing layer; depositing a transparent conductive material on the sealing layer to form a common electrode; and adhering the protection layer to an upper portion of the common electrode.
